My Old Train Clock

I'm a big fan of trains specially the old looking ones, though Malabon has no trains. my Tita always tells me that when they where young they could here the sound of the train chugging and hooting from miles away (impossible today because the train their hearing is non existing today and if still, noise pollution will clog the mechanical siren). I imagine that it look like this but with more details. Anyway this is my old clock and the oldest in our house. I bought this in SM North when i was in grade two, what I remember is it has a small box with a design of green pastures with the usual cow drawing (the box was either missing or has been thrown out because our old house was demolished to give way for our new house). Now eleven years pass still this clock works but the train has taken its toll mainly by time and my misuse. The alarm sound with real train recordings has been lost because I always play with it, the gold colored button to set the alarm is fading due again to my use.

      The battery socket was rusting because when I placed this clock on a large box along with other stuff I forgot to took off the battery and took me six years to get this clock before I could took it. The clock works with only two batteries instead of three as seen from the picture, I think using three battery you could operate the alarm of the clock. I don't know if SM or other store still sell them, if still I would like to buy a new one.

 
Here are the rest of its images:
