Greetings John! The EM2 was also available in blue with grey roof (1966 -68) and rail blue (all over) from 1969-71. You can tell the regular production models from the CKD (completely knocked down) kit versions by looking at the trailing bogie. CKD models are held in by a brass screw and nut as opposed to being riveted. You definitely got a nice example for the money! Another enjoyable video!
Hi John. What a great looking loco is the EM2, great condition at a great price. Beautiful runner. Saddle tank looks the part as well. J94 is a great Saddle tank. Bit worried about the snowman melting over it though.⛄ Do like your bus depot. Thanks for sharing John. Thumbs up thumped 👍 ....Pete....
That’s A Fab Chrissie Pressie and No Mistake - With my Limited Knowledge I tend to think the Blue Boxes are a Quick indicator of Dublo 3 Rail items, tho I have found Great info about box design thru the Decades online - The J94 seems a Sweet Runner with the Xo7 motor, and in Regards to Dapol, Airfix, Mainline etc, I’m thinking they are All the Same Animal tbh - Nice Job Keeping All these Older Models Running 🙌🏻👍🏻
@@donniblanco5239 I meant the blue version of the loco not the box ,on replaying the video i can see why you were misled ,sorry about that . All triang hornby boxes were red and yellow. Thanks for watching 👀 🙂

A very smooth runner, John; Enjoy!!

Trix once made a model of the EM1 in both black and green liveries but they are like rocking horse dung these days and also go for really silly money!
😁👋👋👍👍

Great video again John, love that EM2, even without Catenary.
I am open to be corrected, but I think Trix produced a model of the EM1 Bo-Bo Electric.
@@robridgway8574 I've just looked in the pat hammond book and yes trix had an EM1 model hence triang made the EM2. Approx 17,000 models.
@@jkb1955 Nice Detective work John. Will you be hunting for the Trix EM1?
@@robridgway8574 I shall certainly be window shopping..
