Looking good, Alan. Like mine, it has the look of a treasure chest at this stage, but I must say your catch looks a lot more convincing than mine.

Now that you mention it, it does look like a treasure chest :)

Picked up one of these boxes today. A small pile on offer at our local branch for only £1.00 each. Looking at my 7/8 scratch built quarry wagons sitting here on 32mm track, then using the same scratch built chassis and Mr Binnie axle boxes to match the rake will produce a very nice little model indeed. Not checked the scale but it certainly looks the part.
