Original vintage Trix Twin Railway OO-gauge three-rail track and accessory bundle.
The bundle contains:
* Five loose buffer-stop straight track sections
* Two additional buffer-stop track sections/components contained in the original “Buffer Stop on Rail – Two Pieces” box
* One Trix No. 427 magnetic operating rail with its underside metal mechanism
The loose buffer-stop sections have Trix Twin Railway 420/1 straight-track bases and include a mixture of red and white buffer-stop variations. The original box carries the Trix Twin Railway branding, catalogue reference X/865 and “Made in England” marking.
The separate operating section is the Trix No. 427 magnetic rail. Only the rail and attached underside mechanism shown are included; there are no separate switches, controls, connecting wires or additional fittings.
These are genuine period Trix Twin Railway pieces intended for the vintage three-rail system. An interesting mixed collection for a TTR layout, restoration project, spares or display.
Everything included is shown in the photographs. No locomotives, rolling stock, transformer, controller or additional track is supplied.
Condition
Vintage used condition with considerable age-related wear.
The pieces have surface rust, oxidation, tarnishing, dust, grime, scratches, marks and areas of paint loss. Some rails and metal connectors show heavier corrosion than others. The buffer stops have chips, scuffs, discolouration and general wear, with different finishes and colour variations across the bundle.
The No. 427 magnetic rail has tarnishing and surface corrosion to its underside metal plate and mechanism. It has not been connected or electrically tested, so its magnetic operation cannot be guaranteed. No separate operating switch, wiring or other fittings are included.
The original No. 865 cardboard box is heavily worn, with staining, marks, softened and frayed edges, small tears, crushing and general storage wear. The two boxed buffer-stop sections/components have been photographed outside and inside the box so their condition and contents can be properly assessed.
The entire bundle is untested and may require cleaning, adjustment, servicing or repair before use. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description.
