Hector the Hopper Truck

 Some time ago I mistakenly bought this model of Hector the coal hopper truck, but it was a Toymaster push along toy.


A few days ago I spotted one for sale on eBay which had been adapted to fit on Hornby track.


Added to a Hornby chassis


So I thought I would attempt the same thing.
