FW 60 Automatic, I bought one of those from Nigel but didn't know it came with a certificate. That's a fair few Transits. Quite a few promo/early release versions I've not seen before, thanks for sharing

Lovely jubbly John, get well soon. Nice Duck and egg boxed E27N, that packaging has eluded me along with the flat box also shown! Presumably the NP Super Major Industrial is on plastic Fordson rear rims? I suspect there may be some out there on metal versions as the blue NP Super Major also came on metal and plastic Fordson rims as well as Ford style rims. The Major plastic wheel rims survive a lot better with the rubber tyres than later Britains tractors. Lots of variations with Fordson Majors E27n and E1A, although more of the later. I have a Ford Force 5000 in a 5000 Super Major box with a Ford Force sticker on it. It gets even better, I've never seen a trade pack of riders/drivers and you have both, Are the early ones all grey or a mixture of blue and grey?

I think they did a few different Marshal models

French, CTF is it?

I heard, somewhere, that some of the moulds were damaged in a fire which is why some livestock was only made for a limited time period 🤔

A big well done to Colin from me as a punter. How refreshing to have a new venue albeit maybe only the once! It was easy to find and a bit closer to home.

The boy with dog, girl with piglet, boy with rope and girl with bucket are all from the farm range 1970 to end of 1974. They appear to have replaced the younger figures from the Britains 'Folk' boxed set that was deleted at end of 1969

Are the rear wheels/tyres the same size to both tractors? 15/16.9-34's or bigger?

You need something by Kidd on the back, he was interested in that make as far as I can remember?

I suspect its the yellow part from the Corn King albeit with different decals, what do the screw heads look like? It does look much better as an all yellow combine methinks

@smithy How do they get the fall on your drainage or was the field on a slope? What sort of depth do they go too? @Tractorman810 Sounds like a Barth K140 you are describing

I see the E27N and Profi Fendt are listed as sold out already, haven't seen any actually for sale yet! G&M listed them, but only as expected and month when due. Prices are going to be interesting on epay methins.

Best get your finger out then 😉 Well I didn't know about the metal drill or push on wheels! That's the great thing about this forum there's always something new to learn, cheers John

You asked me that question once before, I probably didn't respond. I would call it an encapsulated poster though, not a header board. I'd only be interested in swapping it for something I don't have.

I don't know for certain but definitely professionally produced. My rosette range poster is paper. I do have at least one of the whole farm range posters as both card backed and paper only. What size is the one pictured above, A3?

Thanks Sam, I do have this one but it is card backed (on page 6)

A simple child's toy, the Britains/Tomy "Farm in a Box" JD 30 series( not marked) has a wide fixed front axle, to enable fitment of loader presumably, no glazing and a simple ring tow hitch. Mostly made of plastic with metal bonnet and half shaft housings, Tyres are realistic though. The trailer is a recycled Ertl item and the livestock may be too! idea is quite clever with nothing being thrown away, even the outer wrapper is used as part of the base. There is another set 47019A with a basic Case tractor along the same lines as the JD although this comes with the latter incarnation of the Atcost barn/livestock shed and again presumably Ertl livestock

As far as I am aware the only way to get parts for the buildings is to buy damaged/broken ones

What is the Catalogue number on this one John?

I know it was terrible but couldn't resist, the rest was all true though. I still have a crown to sort out, just changed that work to January

Lovely, not, I feel for you. I had that done a month ago, through a crown too! Before that was an extraction that required two visits due to infection. The infection makes any anaesthetic ineffectual, so another course of antibiotics was required. After the extraction I was advised to go home and rest, that's about all I was able to do. Appointment time was not at 2:30 though

I have one of these, probably produced after the Autoway range had been deleted, using up surplus parts. A favourite Britains past time! See also the yellow/red Bauer tanker, blue( I think) post hole borer with chevron sticker(s) and also yellow roller in standard farm roller box.

Here it is

Did the National Trust Land rover come with sticker and poster? The MF gift set man has gone for a peek at the 3680! I have a Pine Lodge stable block in a Breyer box, they spent a bit more money on it than just a covering sticker as it has its own Breyer label and bespoke box

Interesting header to leaflet/flyer/poster "Celebrating 100 years of Britains" haven't they left out the word Farm? We had the silver 5610 celebrating Britains centeenery quite a few years back!
