Gandalf Jean sent me an e-mail which included a pic of the Egger Bahn 009 steam railcar which was available more years ago than I care to remember.

I was a big fan of 009 when I was a teenager but unfortunately my pocket money never stretched to buying much in the way of 009 items...I had one small diesel locomotive (the Minitrains one) and that was it.

Did anyone else (of a certain age obviously) buy any of the rtr 009 that was around in the late 60's/early 70's?

And does anyone else share my unhappiness at the fact that the availability of freelance rtr stock is now, as far as I can see, down to nil?
