Thos Posted December 14, 2005 Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 I always wanted a Mecchano set... but I didn't get one. :sad:I loved Meccano. They came in sets 1 to, I think, 10 with 1a to convert a 1 to a 2, 2a converting a 2 to a 3 and so on. I never did get to the top one.Happy days!.Thos. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4may Posted December 14, 2005 Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 I loved Hornby Trains and always wanted the Blue Streak (Mallard) but had to do with the Queen of Scots and a Tank engine. Many happy hours spent with these though. :happy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
