Very satisfying with identifying old pieces from the Britains farm toys range with me. I been looking for a very old model of a cattle truck belonging to Britains 1/32 range, but before I had the web it was impossible. Although I still haven't purchased myself the same model again, atleast I can live with the prospect of finding myself one again like I did a few months again. I'm not familar with the 1/64 scale farm toys only the selection made by Learning Curve, it's all about 1/32, 1/87 and 1/16 scale here in the UK.
