WRENNEIRE

That myth has popped up several times but about different makes Some of the Spot On models were used in land fill for some new factory being built in Belfast Also Wrenn box's that were printed in Belfast were also buried in landfill up north Anyone have any other stories?

There is a big interest in Jouef (HDI) in France Most of the stuff I see on eBay seems to end up there I must have a trawl through my stuff and see if there are any spare pieces floating about I have other outline HDI stuff as well Anything that said Made in Ireland was always picked up

Interesting lot here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Irish-Turf-Burning-Loco-4mm-scale-16-5mm-gauge-/161840108197?hash=item25ae6c12a5

Back on track girls Picked these up last night Nothing very exciting I can hear you say But it puts a clear definition on the different coaches The pic shows 2 x Made in Ireland box's Both have the thinner striped coach in them Also Jouef's penchant for not having a plastic face on their box's but instead wrapping them in clingfilm I have placed one of the thicker striped coaches for comparison As a matter of interest are there any other collectors out there or am I the only sad bastard? PM me if you want to remain anonymous

Model shop has it also http://www.themodelshop.ie/die-cast/buses/oxford-leyland-royal-tiger-coach-lough-swilly.html

Picked up some 00 gauge trucks at Bray recently Nice bit of detail on this one

Pity about the box Should read R768 C.I.E. DIESEL LOCO Might have had a ging at it if it had the proper box

I have been asked by another IRM member to post this pic of his layout that he is trying to sell I will forward any PM's to him Price is €100 No rolling stock included, or buildings Looks like a Track Mat setup

Its certainly not the forum I joined any more man

Fran The forum is turning into a very sterile environment Pat has turned into a headmaster like creature and you have been waving the old cane around yourself Dont turn it into another politically correct gig, give the troops some rope and lets have some fun for a change Lot more fun to be had on the Irish Water site....

Have to agree wih the BTB on this one Fran, post is a couple of days old

Its OK Paul, he's from Bray Takes a couple of days for the new to filter through......

Cheers Steve Dont reckon there will be any Marklin at it

Brian When is your next toyfair?

Helene Check out this thread on the site http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/157-LIMA-Murphy-Models It will show what Ready to Run (RTR) models were available since 1977 May be of some interest to you

Dropped the seller ( bargaininstruments2010) a line Explaining like that his prices were a bit rich God love him but he sent me back a link to the 2 gostude items that have been listed for the last 18 months or so http://www.ebay.ie/itm/BACHMANN-00651-IRISH-RAILWAY-CIE-2-6-0-CLASS-K1-LOCO-COACH-TRAIN-SET-MIB-nc-/331422622502?hash=item4d2a53e326 http://www.ebay.ie/itm/LIMA-205159-IE-CIE-IRISH-RAILWAYS-CLASS-201-LOCO-216-RIVER-DODDER-MINT-BOXED-nc-/331422674305?hash=item4d2a54ad81 Then I sent him this link to show a more realistic price for some of his bits Waiting patiently for a reply.................... http://www.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/irish-railway-items-for-sale/642085

Not as expensive but another dreamer Have a feeling he may be a member or a watcher here, has too much info about the stock he is selling Makes my stuff look like I am giving it away!!! http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Murphy-Models-bachmann-lima-irish-livery-collection-/181879217042?hash=item2a58d89b92

Sorry man, its standard 32mm

At 5.12 on the video there is a pal of mine called Barry Fentiman, a serious WRENN colector He told me he almost hit James May when he reached for the W2408 Gold Plated 0-6-0 Tank They were a non powered loco issued to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Hornby Dublo and only 140 were made making it the second lowest production run of any of the Limited Edition locos.

They are 7mm David

Just back from the Summerhill paint shop

Yep Fran, Joe Keegan mentioned it earlier, Try and stay with the programme man

Some good detective work there troops The 071 was built by the same lad that is building the brass 201 in O Gauge at the moment

Monck Place, early 80's I think

Probably because its priced at €20?
