Mini Story or Hook:
A charming piece of post-war model railway history, this Hornby O Gauge No. 20 tender was made by Meccano Ltd in England during the 1950s. Finished in classic British Railways green livery with the early lion-over-wheel crest, it captures the craftsmanship and nostalgia of Hornby’s golden age of tinplate trains.
