Just one little Streamliner for the O gauge collection so far this week ( courtesy of DutchBoy!)

Thinking its a Karl Bub but am having the devil of a time confirming it ...

But the real excitement for me was a tip off ( Thanks Gavin! ) to a OO Distler Tischbahn set here in Australia !

Sadly missing the locomotive ( but I have a few Bings until I find a Distler to match) but with box ( part?) , and 4 carriages and track all at a price not to be argued with ! It took me all of 0.3 seconds to commit to buying this lot !

Such a blatant copy of Bing lol ..... but then all the manufacturers were soon fighting for the "Miniature" Railway market ... Bing, Bub, Distler, Mignon, Paya(Rico) .... Although the true collection will always be O , for some wonderful reason I really like these OO's of the 20's/30's ... the technical leap to make these in such times was truly a revolution IMHO. ( A bit like CD vs Casette tapes lol )
