Very nice! :-) Is the tanker powered or is it just a tow?

Love the old Gasilee girl, just old enough to remember the firm on the river, she is a very evocative model I love it.

Thanks Dodes,  I am well pleased with her and she has made a nice running mate for the Sauria, unfortunately I can remember them well {:-{ {:-{ Geo

Hi Tugmad
I have to admit I do really like tanker models  :-) :-) Perhaps it's all the bulk of them!!
