Yesterday it was time to ignore all the new toys and get the promised treat out of the cupboard - "Granddad's train set". All it took was a drop of oil and a bit of sandpaper on the connections and the Princess Locomotive was whizzing round the track. We're not sure how old it is (1950's) or when it was last used (20 - 30 years ago), but the four boys enjoyed it (Henry, James, Robert and Chris) and I think I can see ideas for Birthday presents in various minds!
