A Trained Eye


As Woodsy struggled to find any info on the Life Buoy train premiums, here they are again in all their tiny colourful glory. On closer inspection, I can see why, as they are from Life Guard Disinfectant, rather than soap! As you can see, the whole lot fitted inside a large matchbox.






 Going back to the margarine premiums, here are the printed markings on two of the wagons. By comparison, one of these wagons is as long as three Life Guard ones!

  1. Great, always like small models- the Lifeguard ones appear to have been involved in a collision?

    1. Ha ha - yes Andy the lifeguard wasn't on duty that day. The plastic is very like celluloid, but harder and seems to be susceptible to warping or it could be down to a flexible mold in production, but they all have the 'dowagers hump'!
