    Free to a good home.

    Mixed box of 21 guards (red/green/white) and fogging (red/amber/green/white) paraffin lamps of various British railway origins. Most are complete, some just need a good clean, new wicks, etc. Some need more restoration of the outer shell. Various spares included.

    I could put them on eBay with words like 'rare', 'vintage' and all that overblown drivel that anything with a railway connection seems to attract. Or I could just give them away for a straightforward workbench restoration project.

    NE Scotland. Please PM if interested.

    WOW!

    That's a great offer.
    I'm no longer operational, so would be wasted on me.
    The "fogging" lamps are also of course the Signalbox/Signalman/HandSignalman variety.

    Hi, I'd potentially be interested! You've got your privacy settings such that it's not possible to send you a PM though.
