I had a second hand Silver Jubilee Freight set:

Unfortunately the loco (47121, with the headcode 1V03) burnt out its brushes (or something - there was smoke and sparks) while hauling a modest load of 5 coaches.

My first Triang(does that count) was a black Princess Elizabeth loco around 1954, all I could see of it was the back of my Dad and my Uncle telling me not to touch it! some chance!
