C is for Canoes - 24 - Langley Models

 Well, having pulled the 24th post and shelved three others, there wasn't going to be a 24th post on this 'canoe season', started by Brian Berke's sending of his images about (over?) two years ago. But Jon Attwood kindly sent these yesterday after some eMail shenanigans, so we have a twenty-forth instalment!

Langly Models have a vast range of civilian and military subjects, aimed primarily at railway modellers, among which are these two modern sports canoes, a single-seater and a double seater of the fibreglass-reinforced resin type.
 
Quite similar in looks to the Airfix commando canoes, you could equip the Matchbox guys with a few of these instead of their silly little rubber jolly-boat!

Many thanks to Jon for these, and many, many thanks to Brian for his original tranche of photo's which kicked this off, and for his patience as it kept being put back for one reason or another, in the course of it all I have added the new 'canoe' tag to a few older posts, and while I probably haven't found all of them, and we certainly haven't covered more than a few, it's a good basis for further study!
