A quick look at two sets from the 1980s Hornby Action Accessories range, R528 the Operating Tipper Set and R515 the Operating Conveyor Set.
I think these are relatively rare as I've never seen them before and I thought I was quite familiar with the products from this era.
Theses motorized sets fit together to form a colliery setup where a wagon can be raised up on incline piers to a tipper. When tipped the wagon's coal load falls into the hopper. The coal is then transported via a working conveyor belt into another waiting wagon.
These sets were part of my Uncle's model railway collection which is being sold off. The eBay listing is here: ebay.us/OJeWH2
