Mail By Rail, 2022-09-26 & 2022-09-28

A set of two 500 piece puzzles. Falcon is still not my favourite brand, but this was actually OK. The cut often seems a bit off with Falcon, and there can be false fits, but I saw nothing of that this time. I like the images, for some reason I usually enjoy doing all means of transport – trains, ships, cars – especially if they are vintage. Surprisingly, the image on the top where the train is being loaded at the station was much more difficult than the bottom one. Still not sure why 🙂

This is the first puzzle in a set of two by Falcon. I’m not a huge fan of Falcon, I find the pieces often fit where they don’t belong, but with an image like this, it doesn’t matter much. I didn’t actually find that pieces fit where they don’t belong this time, but I still didn’t like the fit. It felt slightly off, the pieces just didn’t fit together as well as I would wish.

The Whitesmith’s Cottage, 2018-09-09

I don’t usually get Falcon puzzles, I once had a horrible experience with a 3000-piece puzzle where any piece would fit anywhere, but this was a gift. It ended up being quite enjoyable, although I could tell that with another image it could have been quite hard. Falcon belongs on the list of brands that I only get if there are no large areas of one colour.
