Little Ben is looking for an R186 signal box - and Townsends have one left. He raids his piggy bank, cycles up to the model train shop to pick it up and returns home. The look on dad's face when he hands it to him for his birthday... TV ad first shown in 1985
@whiteymcqueen It's the thought that counts!

I just knew it was an 'R186 signal box'. That alphanumeric arrangement must've been indelibly burned into my memory from seeing this advert so many times. Lovely having it confirmed though.
