  1. That looks incredible. Must be massive!
  2. Can never have enough Toyotas!
  3. Just for reference, a link to the photo used:
  4. Murphy Models 210. Auction ends in two days. Not a terrible price considering some of the prices that Irish locos command. https://www.ebay.es/itm/404081806920
  5. By special request, I stumbled up the little hill behind the reefer and climbed onto a little wall thing, just for you... CMA CGM reefer parked off the TF1 at the Chio roundabout, and a Transatlantica box in Chio that looks like it's been repurposed to house a generator or something.
  6. Jackpot today, SIX boxes parked behind Decathlon in La Laguna this afternoon, two of those OPDR's and two of them, wait for it @murphaph, were ContainerShips! Forgive the large number of photos, but I got very excited. I'll review them on the PC another day and delete some if necessary.
  7. Merry Christmas to all on the forum, and their loved ones. No train-time for me, yet, but did get out for a short Christmas Eve walk yesterday:
  8. It would be blasphemy to put anything other than a transparent roof on that shed! Clear corrugated plastic panel roof!
  9. Not a bad price considering what some 141's go for: https://touch.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/murphy-models-class-181/28694941
  10. Saw this box earlier. Something odd about the dimensions, dunno what it was. And who the Hell is poor old Arie van Donge?
  11. I don't think that there IS such a thing as a challenge for @murphaph. One of his boxes somehow made its way down here...
  12. More commissions coming in 2023! Yes, the holy grail, two-tone green!
  13. Tinnelly truck, don't see these too often! https://www.ebay.es/itm/334673986633
  14. Nothing was ever really to scale as I wasn't academic enough to be reading the instructions, would just mash some stuff together. Used to steal my Dad's camera from time to time, hence there are some photos in existance!
  15. Just going through this thread on the computer now. Usually do so on the mobile, and I have to say, @murphaph's work is just mind-blowing. I didn't fully appreciate the quality of his workmanship while viewing the thread on the mobile, but seeing these pictures up close is something else. Absolutely outstanding work, these 111's have to be some of the best 071 re-sprays out there!
  16. Ah come on, Lego is still awesome. Look at these random sets of blocks - no instructions necessary! https://www.ebay.es/itm/284522956871 https://www.ebay.es/itm/295282884577 https://www.ebay.es/itm/295432007487 And when I was a kid, I'd have killed for something like these two: https://www.ebay.es/itm/175429479716 Without them, nothing that I made actually floated. I guess if we'd had blue carpet, it might have helped...
  17. Not a container but nice nonetheless, an old school TITSA bus!
  18. Hope you have Superquinn sausages and Tayto crisps in stock, with some Club Orange to wash them down!
  19. Wow! FOUR blue boxes outside Decathlon in La Laguna today! All proper palletwide boxes, too, none of this namby pamby narrow-gauge container nonsense.
  20. Ah, no, don't tell me that they've come into stock and gone back out of stock already? I must have been waaaaaaaay down the subscribe list as I never received an in-stock email.
  21. I have no body parts left to trade. Couldn't smoke or drink if I wanted as there are no spares available. I wouldn't worry about that too much unless you're prepared to pay the extra. Gougers like @evankelly260996only keep doing it because people keep paying.
  22. A couple of Ian Hayes truck on eBay: https://www.ebay.es/itm/234815824257 https://www.ebay.es/itm/393176168021 https://www.ebay.es/itm/234633724253 https://www.ebay.es/itm/144787483658 https://www.ebay.es/itm/314180973112
  23. LOL, 20 degrees isn't that frosty! Maybe @ttc0169will start having open days and sell the admission tickets here on the forum!
  24. I wouldn't worry too much about this particular run, unless you're a specialist collector. IRM have proven that they will re-run items again every couple of years, with new running numbers where possible. We'll see NIR Mk2B/C packs hir the shelves again when the 22000's arrive, or I'll eat my hat. Meantime, as @murphaphhas said, Chris Dyer will have some, and I'm sure that @BosKonaysaid somewhere (there are three threads on this topic now so it's a bit messy tracking down information for quotes) that retailers (ie Marks Models or Rails or whoever) will have these if they pre-ordered. I know a man named @WRENNEIREwho always seems to have lovely nuggets like these for sale. And, @Warbonnetsaid "next" chapter, not the last chapter, so you can expect Class 80's, Dutch vans, limited run BR livery Irish coaches and product re-runs galore.
  25. Older photos, 20th July 2020, a month or two after lockdown (here) ended and the pandemic was over for us. A P&O NedLloyd box (PONU-7348565) by the golf course in Adeje. A retired 12,2m (40') long, 2,4m (8') wide and 2,9m (9'6") tall HC drybox by the look of it.
