Britains Lilliput Series

1934 - 1960


Britains Liliput Series was a range of 00-gauge-scale (1:76) vehicles made for Britains by W. Horton (Toys & Games) Ltd. from around ~1952 onwards.

Britains themselves referred to the range as having been started in about ~1934, which means that they counted the 00-gauge accessories that they supplied (with "Britains" co-branding) to Trix for the Trix Twin Railway range.
