This ridicoulus little train, I have, for some reason been saving since I was a kid. The whole train is about 28 cm long and made of die-cast zink. |

The roof of the carriages can be lifted off to be transformed into open goodswagons . And it doesn´t even move on rail! |

The makers name was BAPRO, meaning BAkelit-PROdukter It was manufactured by Solna Pressgjuteri starting in 1948 and to the end of the 50-ies. They also made a space-ship, a Mercedes racecar and a truck( Dinky copies). The train doesn´t have any real value , but I will hang on to it just the same. It is a bit of swedish toy history... A thank you to Peter Pluntky for the background! |
