    Hello all,
    I'm stumped here litterally! I bought some auctions from ebay awhile back and well in one of the lots I bought had a bunch of interesting cast metal detail parts that have "Puffing Billy Models" on the front and then on the back of the packages it says, "Castings by F&G Custom Casters" Made in Australia... With a given phone number...Anyway know of these parts or even the company still making parts? I'm kind of fond of these with the parts I got. It consisted of the list of parts below:

    ** Radial Arm Drill, one pack
    ** Milling Machine, one pack
    ** Log Racks, 2 packs
    ** Cat diesel motor and generator, with air compressor, one pack
    ** Gasoline motor with air compressor, one pack
    ** Interlocking tower guy with levers, one pack
    ** Outside water valves with piping, one pack
    ** Rail Flange oiler and box with piping, one pack

    Anyone know of the company and if they still make parts and if they are still around and all???? I wouldn't mind getting some more of these parts if possible. Very well made... All cast and painted... TIA

    Yeah I would be interested in getting a set of those too! There is another company in England that makes them, but they wont sell to the US because the banks take a big bite for money exchange.

    I would pay, I just can't get an address.

    Wayne,
    In ebay go to search and search the user name "ragtyme" hes who I bought them from.... And he also had many others as well. I don't know if hes got any more though but would be worth a try to e-mail him and ask! I'm going to see where he got them to see if I can buy some dirrect from where ever he got 'em being They sure are nice detail parts! And not a peice is plastic! Its all die cast...
