Here is an Ocean Terminal Boxed Set produced in the 70s when Hornby revived the Triang Minic Ships range. Made in Hong Kong but all the parts are identical to the 1st and indeed the third series except for the printing underneath. This set contains RMS Queen Mary, two tugs, an ocean terminal and extension, five quay straights a customs shed and a crane set, three end pieces and 2 breakwater straights. The contents are in good playworn condition but the Queen Mary has both masts and is mint. The box front cover is another attractive piece of artwork based on Southampton and is showing some wear. It shows a different aspect of the Queen Mary. The rest of the box is well worn hence the photos to show this. So more a set to use rather than as a collector's item. Triang ref M902 Our ref set 8. -

This is a model from the First Series of Triang Minic ships which were made from 1958 to 1964. This is a SUNK lightship. Placed by Trinity House where there was hidden danger to shipping, notably in the Thames estuary. Four other lightships were made in the first series and were in small cellophane bags packed in boxes of a dozen. Very random mix in these boxes in our experience. and of course in the modern series 3 there were four made with helidecks. Good condition, approx 1 inch in length. our ref M802 -

Trinity House still maintains an automatic vessel on the same site today. Very Good condition. Approx 1 inch in length. Our ref M803. We have more than one of these so the photos are library photos. -
