Any model railway people?

Since we can't do Easter lunch, we're getting rid of some of the other **** around...

Anyone into model railways and provide either advice or a home for some vintage (looks like 60s and 70s) OO gauge stuff?

Assuming it's UK stuff and two rail type (real early stuff was 3 rail) you can normally tell age by the branding, Hornby Dublo before 63, 64-72 Triang Hornby and 72 onwards Hornby Railways. Early engines and rolling stock were die cast or tin pate but by mid 60s nearly everything was plastic. As with everything condition is everything and values range from next to nothing upwards depending on condition and rarity. What do you actually have?

I still have all my old train stuff in the loft, keep saying one day I will build a proper layout but actually am being encouraged by a Lancia owner here who is in to model railways in a big way. On the retirement list

If it's '60s and '70s stuff it's probably not worth that much as ebay is flooded with it at the moment - might be worth trying a few facebook groups though.
