EpochNZ Posted May 26 Report Share Posted May 26 I think I've found the destination for the next OS Tram adventure.......Ferrymead has several working examples of telephone exchanges dating from the 1920's. Lots of clanking spinning bits while you can prank call each other on rotary phones. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bling Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 Its that naturally occurring oil film on them that stops them rusting in the rain. Just had a bit too much on my plate / no OS car on the road right now. Decent turn out for the weather! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajg193 Posted June 1 Report Share Posted June 1 I've never experienced a car that went from looking perfect to being completely rusted out faster than a Mitsubishi Tredia. They say that by the time you can see the rust on them, it's too late 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
