The Russians are coming tinplate style

artfull dodgerOGR Forum Member

Keeping with my Euro/UK tinplate kick, and my last purchase for a bit as this one will put me in the dog house for a bit. But one must strike when a rare/hard to find set pops up on USA ebay. From Russia with love, A mostly complete Khrushchev-era Moskabel set. Missing a few of the accesories, which I will track down once I am out of the dog house and pay back the bill me later account on paypal for the set. Cant wait for this one to arrive! Now I need to get my 5" gauge UK ride on train sold to cover the bill and keep my wife happy. AD

My "CFO" said these train sets are beautiful. Her specific comment was "Wow". But she did add that I would still be in the dog house. 😊

I am in the dog house anytime I buy trains that cost a chunk of money. She gets over it eventually. AD

I bet you had to be a really important muckety-muck in the Communist Party hierarchy to have even a chance at getting one of those train sets for your kids.
