Hi all,
Was given this with some s/h track I bought..
Wooden construction, cracking axle-box detail, springing works, says 'JAY BEE' on inner face of wheels.

Looks like one of these at least in part.

I thought exactly the same thing, you beat me to it! Construction isn't quite the same though. Also reminds me a little of the Busted Bricks wagons I put together a while ago, but definitely isn't one of those.
 
I suppose all 'basic trolleys' will be similar..
My picture does not do the axle-boxes justice.. They are really crisp and detailed, possible fabricated rather than cast?
Pretty certain I have seen these in the dim and distant past.
 
Isn't Jay Bee a hobby line ?
 
Axle Boxes look like Ozark Miniatures #1009

Nick,
That does look about right..
The top-centre fixing has been drilled out and a single screw used to fix the axle-box to the frame.
What I thought was real rust on the ale-boxes is paint! - glasses again.;)
