  2. Could be as soon as Saturday, but probably Monday just to be safe Not as many as previously made so some may run out sooner than before
  3. Paul Bite the bullet and get a Silver Fox one The Lima one is a toy and whereas the S/Fox has its detractors it is an awful lot better than a Lima If you get a baccy fitted chassis, happy days I will look for my Q Kit one and bring it along on Sunday and you can compare it to a S/Fox and Lima one
  4. Think the forum is getting a bit antiseptic lads If a couple of people want to air their views, let them at it Couple of lads here I would love to give a lash to but my good upbringing refrains me from doing so Not even handbags drawn and the mods are dishing out yellow cards The aim of argument or of discussion should not be victory, but progress

  18. It is with deep regret that I have to inform you of the passing of a Modelling legend John Byrne, who worked for Lexie Keady in Toys International and later was the Hornby rep for Ireland He also ran a shop in Rathfarnham, Toyland John passed away at 6.30 am yesterday D'fhéadfadh go mbeadh Dia trócaire ar a anam As an aside to Johns sad passing, along with Lexie Keady he was responsible for the involvement of Lima in the Irish model railway scene John was a good friend of the Wrenn Brothers, George & Cedric. Wrenn had been involved with Lima and were pulling out of the arrangement to concentrate on producing their own models. John was informed that the agency was available and together with Lexie Keady they approached Paolo Bizzatza, the owner of Lima at the time. Shortly afterwards the first Lima HO models in Irish livery appeared and the rest is history. Reposing at the White Fathers Missionaries of Africa, Cypress Grove Road on Saturday from 2pm with Funeral Mass on Monday at 12 noon followed by burial in Bohernabreena Cemetery.
