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. -

Produced around 1959/60 and containing models of HMS Albion, a ton class minesweeper, a V class frigate and a cruiser. All the models are secured by a single thread. There are HMS Swiftsure, Virago and Sefton. All the ships are as left the factory.. The ships are blue. The inner lining of sea effect card is almost mint. The outer box in which it sits is excellent. The lid cover has some wear and damage to the corners.

She serves the automatic lighthouses, buoys and beacons along the coasts of England, Wales and the Channel Islands. Galatea provides aids to navigation for the safe passage of mariners, including maintenance work, buoy deployment, wreck location marking and towing. She is also able to carry out additional tasks such as hydrographic surveying and wreck finding and contract commercial work. She is also equipped for: lifting, towing and accurate positioning of marine equipment, sea trials of electronic and speciality equipment, helicopter support, safety boat assignments and guard duties for cable and pipe laying projects. Galatea and her sister ship, Pharos were built by Remontowa of Gdansk, Poland in 2006/07. She is 85metres in length, 3599 gross tonnes and has 7 officers and 11 crew. I saw her in 2019 in the Bristol Channel outside Ilfracombe harbour and thought that she and her sister would be a good addition to any ship collection. Super model.
