The coach on offer hereis one of the series produced for the Australian market and isidentical to the second series Transcontinental versions but withTransAustralia as a road name This example is theDiner with blue body, grey roof and silver underframe.The four versions ofthe TransAustralia series with this livery were assembled inAustralia between 1962 and 1964 making the model 56+ years sinceproduction.The interior seatingand tables are white with the attractive red lamps on the tablesclearly visible on the photos.
Considering itsvintage the model is in very good condition as shown by the photos.
There is no obviousdamage to the model and only shows normal minor handling wear.
The photos I includeare enlargements and hence magnify surface imperfections, mostof which are not visible to the naked eye.
Please study the photoscarefully as they give a better indication of the condition than mydescription.

I have included a copyillustrating the TransAustralia coaches from one of the earlyAustralian edition catalogues (1962-1963) and also from theinvaluable reference book The Story of Rovex Volume 2 1965-1971by Pat Hammond, essential for all serious Tri-ang Hornby collectors

I am listing a range ofother Tri-ang Moldex coaches in separate auctions.

The coaches offeredhere were all obtained many years ago from collectors in Australia.Now it is time to allowothers to enjoy these models either for running on a layout or fordisplaying in a collection

Potential bidders fromoutside the UK should request postage charges before placing a bid
I always combine P&Pif several items are won from my auctions within 24 hours but pleasewait before paying so a combined invoice can be prepared.
