1954s Hornby model train - abandoned rusty locomotive - restoration

Описание: Here is a new video !!
This is a model train produced by Hornby / Meccano around 1954.
It's pretty rusted and the clockwork mechanism was completely seized.
I didn't want to disassemble this engine not to damage the mechanism... Thanks to WD40 and also electrolysis baths I brought it to life.
The railway car was in very bad shape, almost eaten by the rust...
Most of the parts are so thin that I couldn't do sandblasting... I decided to clean them using electrolytic pickling as usual ;) It has removed the old painting and also the rust !!
Please watch till the end to see this abandoned locomotive in action !
By supporting the channel you help me make more of these video and find more amazing items.
I hope you'll enjoy this restoration.

Thanks a lot for watching !
