Just trying to post some pics from my Flickr account

The club have been given a lot of the contents of Leinster Models work shop
All kinds of Hornby & Lima spare parts etc
I pulled this Spares Box out of the wreckage
About 4 hours work on it to put it into some kind of respectable appearance
Raging I did not take any pics of it beforehand
Hope to stock it with some of these unopened spare parts
Then put it in the loft and forget about it
Anyone looking for some spare parts?
I will be selling some spare parts, they are the remaining stock from the old Phibsbrough shop
All proceeds to the Model Railway Society of Ireland
Check out this link, if you know the reference number I am sure we can help
Also old brushes for Tri Ang and Hornby Dublo
Hundreds of wheel sets also

Have to agree 100% man
Scarceness of the models is what does it for me
Also made a couple of other models and they produced Made in Ireland track!
Go back to pages 40, 41, 42 & 47 of this thread for some more pics
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
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?
