This is the set my brother had..must've been given to him Christmas '63...
I have since managed to piece it all together through the years in memory of him.
Lovely to see... thank you.
Thanks again for looking in Brian, great to hear you managed to collect those items together.
All the best.

Morning Oscar what a great running session that was .The 3f is a great little loco & runs so well .With your layout you don’t need scenery to have a good running session ,it’s just the joy of running your stock .Very enjoyable .😊Suffolk .
Morning Oscar, what a wonderful time-warp that RS5 set of yours is, in such fantastic condition. The 3F looked great pulling the set wagons and then the lovely rake of Mk2 coupling wagons.
A great start to Sunday as always.
Best wishes from Rob & Sue in Gloucester.
Good morning Rob thanks for looking in. Glad you enjoyed the look at the set Hope Sue and yourself have a great Sunday.
Take care .

Good morning Oscar it's Martin from Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Hope you are OK. What a sight to see the goods train set running on your wonderful railway. It was great to see these wagons in real life in the railway yard i worked in when I started work on BR in 1970 when I was 15 years old . London Brick Company had two sidings in the yard for their brick wagons. Their staff where a rough and ready bunch of men and when I used to walk between the brick wagon sidings taking off wagon labels off the side of the wagons the men would shout and throw bricks at me whilst having a good laugh at my expense, Lol. 🙂 But it was all part and parcel of the job. If you could survive working in a railway goods yard you could survive anywhere on the railway network. Happy days indeed. These were the best years of my railway career. Well as always Oscar it was great to see all these wonderful items from a bygone era. To see them actually working on your layout takes me back to my youth again. Well it's that time again for my cup of tea and a toasted tea cake. Keep safe Oscar, hope your family are OK and ill see you next week. Have a safe week ahead. 🙂👍🚂
I love recollections like this Martin, it's amazing how model trains have parallels to real life and spark Wonderful memories. Thank you for sharing it with us.
@@robridgway8574 Hello Rob, thank you for your comments. Yes when I worked in the goods yard, for me, it was amazing to see all sorts of wagons in one place at the same time. I had gone from a model goods yard in one day to the real thing. And to ride on the 08 shunter was a dream come true. I wish I could do it all again. Keep safe Rob. 👍🚂
@@martinhall60 Oh how I envy you Martin! just wish I could have done the same. Take care.
A lovely memory, Martin. No health and safety zealots! Enjoy your toasted teacake plus tea. I like Warburtons teacakes too. Sounds like you had a lot of rough and ready fun when you worked on the railway😂.
Regards
Pete
Good morning Martin thanks for looking in. Great to hear about your memories working in the yard, sounds like truly magical times and such a great experience. Hope you enjoyed your tea cake and had a great week, take care.
Oscar
Good morning Oscar. Your combination of Triang and Dublo continues to provide endless entertainment as I recall from the 1960's. Thank-you.
It's great to hear you're enjoying these videos. Thanks for looking in and kind words. Take care.
Oscar
Hello Oscar, great presentation of thid wonderful rolling stock!
Good morning Oscar, that's a lovely model in very good condition, its always good to see the goods train and the combination of wagons. I do enjoy spotting wagons and saying I've got that one. I've got the brick wagon and made a insert from brick paper on card, it's ok, and my well wagon is green in colour and we've got a tractor on that one. All adds interest for my grandson who likes to keep me on my toes. He's 9 years old and he enjoys running the older engines as much as the more modern and dare say more detailed models. There is something very special watching a train of tanker wagons run around the layout. Thank you for making Sunday mornings enjoyable. Take care Oscar, Eddy xx
it's great your grandson loves playing trains with you Eddy, long may it continue. I hope my Grandson who is 5 stays as interested as he is at the moment.
Good morning Eddy thanks for looking in glad you enjoyed the look over these wagons, they made so many variations over the years, it's nice to hear you and your grandson are having fun with the older model railway items.
All the best.
Oscar
Hi Oscar, I am so envious of all those beautiful boxes that you have, to store the wagons in? Much of my Tri-ang collection is from my own childhood and alas, I rarely kept the boxes in my early days.. (The trains were never packed up for years)? Much later on I started to value the boxes a bit more, but the early boxes were long gone by then? Such a pity... But I still have the wagons, all still in use I might add?
Really enjoyed today's running, as I always preferred the freight trains.. I think that all of the wagons that you have run today are represented on our layouts.. I must mention, that I have never seen a "Well Wagon" in the same colour as yours before. Mine are all blue, green or arange.. My grandson is more of a passenger train lover that I.. His layout is built on later PECO and System 6 type of track, He has a collection of many early wagons and coaches, but some have deep flanges that are a bit noisy on the finer track? With some thin wire "spacers" inserted between the sleeved wheels they all run quite well though? A Princess or Britannia will still pull six of the coaches.. Thank you for another great piece of nostalgia today.. Your videos are always looked forward to... Rob & Charlie
Good morning Rob and Charlie, Glad you enjoyed a look over these wagons. I'm not sure I was careful or valued the boxes when I was a child. I know many of the things that were passed on to my brother and I from another family member did have boxes at the time. We were far more interested in the items themselves, sadly all of these are long gone now as I grew up and left home they disappeared...
All the best.
Oscar
Love it! I was at a model railway exhibition with my dad in or around 1978 and saw a second hand 3F for sale. I went back to my dad to ask if I could borrow £6 from him (I had this in my piggy bank, at home, not on me...). When I got back to the dealer, it had sold…. I always had a soft spot for that loco after that experience!
You just reminded me of a jumble sale that I was at as a young lad of 8 years old. I bought a book for 2p and on my way out I discovered a whole pound note in between the pages that had been there for a few years. Daft as I was - I thought that the seller had accidentally left it there so I took it back and gave it to him. The tight beggar gave me 50p as a reward for being honest.. Mind you fifty pence was a lot of spending money back in 1972.
I always look forward to Sundays and another visit to your fantastic vintage layout. Model railways have come a long way since those early Tri-ang days, the level of detail on today’s models along with multitudes of electronic functions is truly a wonder.
However I am always drawn to the classic trains of days gone by, when things were much simpler, and yes, better.
Thanks for taking the time to share your passion with us. I’m already looking forward to next week’s video! Have a great week and best regards from Canada!🇨🇦
Hi, thanks for looking in its terrific to hear you enjoyed seeing these older items in action railway they definitely have something about the design and construction which is quite absorbing.
All the best.
Oscar
Good Morning to you Oscar from Glasgow another great video from you Sir Thanks for letting us see your Railway and the old Triang Railway stuff you collect
Thank you, Cameron. Glad you enjoyed it. Take care..
Oscar
Morning Oscar,
Great goods video and diesel passenger at the end. There is something about the survival of these oil bottles that is very pleasing considering they are prime candidates to get lost.
3F in very nice condition and looks spot on with the wagons as it would with a couple of coaches.
Always a treat to see a couple of trains running.
Gordon
Good morning Gordon thank you for looking in, glad you enjoyed seeing these items in action, It makes you wonder sometimes how any of these things survive? and where this set sat for all those years to remain in this condition. All the best.
Oscar
Good morning Oscar. Great way to start Sunday morning as usual. I am not usually a fan of goods trains but this set was in excellent condition and a pleasure to watch. Thanks for sharing the variety of items you have and the detail of research you put into your videos. Roy.
Good morning right? Hope you had a great week. Glad you enjoyed the look over this train set. All the best.
Oscar
Hi Oscar nice to see my first train set RS.5 again, I still have the brick wagon intact, the cattle wagon had spoked wheels & the loco body was held on by a screw in the side all from late 1960.
Good morning Geoff great to hear you had that set and that you still have some of this items. They must have terrific memories associated with them.
Thanks for watching take care.
Oscar
good morning Oscar, great to see model railways as they should be,allthis i had in the early 60s i still keep a Davy Crockett loco to play with even now at 70,
Thanks Peter. Glad you enjoyed that. Nice to hear you have the Davy Crockett, a loverly item to have in the collection, you can't help but smile when run this locomotive.
All the best.
Oscar
Very enjoyable. The RS.5 set is in beautiful condition inside and out and is lovely to see. I often discover items in storage that I forgot I had bought and it's always exciting. Nice running with all the goods wagons and the Pullman express rushing past. 😊
Thanks, Pauline. Glad you enjoyed that. It's always nice to find things you had forgotten about tucked away here and there, however, I've been on the search for two wagons in the last couple of weeks, the later style Hopper wagon R214 in light grey, I know I have two of them boxed as they were hard items to find in the first place, just can't find them.. The opposite of finding things you had forgotten about and very frustrating.
They'll turn up when I stopped looking for them..
All the best.
Oscar
@@oscarpaisley Always the way, happy searching.
Hello Oscar,
With inspiration from people like yourself.
I am slowly building up my stock of vintage Model trains.
I think now Ive got to the stage where I froth over the appearance of the little tags, a lovely box and the oil bottles or tubes in the case of Dublo,
Im completely converted. 😂
That Box and contents you showed today are in beautiful condition.
Good morning great to hear you're having fun collecting these older items.
All the best.
Oscar
Great running video this Sunday morning Oscar, thanks for sharing John
Thanks John. Glad you enjoyed this Sunday morning video, take care.
Oscar
Morning Oscar, Saturday morning watching the great video again, got myself the locomotive and tender off the bidding site, it's the later version with see though wheels and synchro smoke fitted, unboxed but in nice condition, had to make a coal load for the tender, runs really strong, I'm having fun on the layout, have a good weekend, John
I've a couple of those cattle wagons in black with SR on them.
Hello Oscar, another great video again. I have the RS.26 set from 1962 and this has the 3F, mine has a smoke unit, magnahesion and see through wheels, I'm not if it is the original from that time as the 1962 catalogue states that you can fit the R.520 smoke unit to it as an optional extra. Any-way, I thought it might be of interest to you. All the best, Simon (Melbourne,Australia)
Good morning Simon thanks for looking in and the info it's very much appreciated. Great to hear you have that set.
Take care.
Oscar
Good morning Oscar great show and lovely running on a Sunday morning Patrick Quinn IRL
Thanks, Patrick. Great to hear you're enjoying these videos.
Take care.
Oscar
A beautiful set Oscar. It's in really good condition and makes a great sound on your layout.
Thanks, David great, glad you enjoyed seeing and hearing those run on the railway.
All the best.
Oscar
Good morning Oscar,
Great content as always very informative and interesting to the world of a wonderful hobby ….
Hi Oscar, theTriang fright train was my first train set I had for Christmas 1960, and I sill have it but not the box, it started my hobby in railways. Thank you for the presentation it brought back many memories. Just one section have you shown the Triang Nato set, I have one green muti- rocket launcher, no box though so not sure if it was a single item or part of a set. Also have exploding wagons.
Good morning John great to hear you still have some of your original items. The NATO items were a lovely group of exciting models. I think they first came along in 1962 before becoming the battle space range in the late 60s rocket launcher was available as a single item or as part of a the RS.50 Defender set of 1964 containing a green diesel shutter, the searchlight wagon, the four rocket launcher wagon and an exploding car. The set went on to be altered and offered in the later Battle space livery, I've included a couple of links below. I do have a few of these items but have yet to show any in a video. Hope, the information is with some help.

Hi oscar I really love watching your videos great running session too great love your layout 😊😊😊😊
Great overall videos here Oscar, a really nice set of items, I do actually have one of those cattle vans, might have to see if I can get some more though at some point, keep up the great work.
Thanks, David. There's always a good excuse to get another wagon or two...
Oscar
Great renovation and run. Jersey Bill
good vid on the channel keep up the good vid on the trains you got keep up the good vids thanks four the cool vid you do
Hornby still make the Cattle Van with a different chassis. It's in the railroad range in a wagon pack in NB livery.
Hi, thanks for looking in Stephen and the info.
Take care.
Oscar
Hi Oscar, I've loved watching your very interesting and informative videos for ages now, and you have inspired me to begin a vintage collection of my own, based around dates from early/mid 60's up until the early 1980's. I'm interested in what you use to clean up all the old oil/carbon deposits on the loco electrics, your container looks like it is lighter fuel liquid? And where can you buy this kind of stuff? Many thanks for many enjoyable Sunday morning viewings! Best wishes. David from Ayrshire
Good morning David I do use lighter fuel which can be bought at the newsagent or many discount stores, I have for a long time used Servisol Aero Klene 50 which is an electrical contact cleaner considered safe for use on electrical parts and plastics however this product has recently become discontinued as I think the company no longer exist. I have recently bought a an alternative recommended by my local electrical store Kontakt-Chemie 601 which so far appears to do the job very well, There are a number of other brands available, it's always best to test these products carefully before you use them on something valuable if you're unsure of their effects.
Thanks for watching hope the information is of some help.
Oscar
81/3 is that £4.07 in decimal money? The 3F tender locomotives is a lovely accompaniment to the 3F jinty tank engine. I think that tender model last saw service with the Sir Dinadin engine of the 1970s. The selection of wagons are excellent for a train set with the two bogie wagons giving excellent play value, however, that set looks hardly used in its 64 years.
Close - it's £4.06. 3d was just over 1p as 1p=2.4d there being 240d to £1 and 1shilling equates to 5p
Good morning Andrew thanks for looking in and the information. It's always interesting to think how sets like this got away with not being played with over that sort of period, were they given as gifts and not wanted or was the owner just very careful putting everything away once finished? Or maybe unsold and sitting at the back of the shop...
Take care.
Oscar
The Mk 3 couplings are light years ahead of the previous offering.
The Mk 2s (in my opinion) let down the overall look of the vehicle.
It's as if Triang ran out of money for experimentation and came up with something cheap to get the product on the shelves quickly.
Good morning Brian I think you're right. They definitely have a very crude appearance these early couplings.
Thanks for watching.
Oscar
The worm gear on the 3F loco looks newish, as didnt the originals come in brass?
Morning Oscar. It's ironic that you describe the layout on the cover of the box as "just such a grand thing" when the reality is that over the years your layouts have been the nearest thing to reproducing it that anyone has ever seen.
Good morning Roger thanks for looking in and the kind words.
Take care.
Oscar
Where do you manage to find the Service Sheents for the older models?
Hi Mike, I've included a couple of links the first one is Lendons of Cardiff they have a great section with service sheets for all sorts of models from different manufacturers www.lendonsmodelshop.co.uk/?button=button2&servicesheets=none the other place to get service sheets from is the Hornby collectors guide they have a lot of service sheets from the Hornby and Tri-ang era from the mid-50s up to the early 90s www.hornbyguide.com/service_sheet_menu.asp
Hope those are of some use, thanks again for taking the time to look in.
Oscar
Hello Oscar - Oh W😮W - @ 1:25 I think I pretty much literary have the Modern day version of your 0-6-0 3F - I have got a R30221 LMS 4F No. 3924 from 'The Railway Children Return' - Here is the link if you want to see the my Review of it :- ruclips.net/video/_Bb4RIE2F6U/видео.html Thanks in advance 🤔😊🚂🚂🚂
Good morning Jimyjames great to hear you have that on your collection. Thanks for the link.
Take care.
