WRENNEIRE

Do you remember Quicksilver Kieran? Take the money or Open the Box!

Just found an R8572 here while looking for Baseboard Daves engine shed Brand new in box!

MIR's version of the 42' flat is our next model This version was white metal and also contained a 40' container The container was available as a separate kit

Or a priest or a relative

Have one somewhere Dave, I will dig it up for Bray Wheelers on the 25th

86 Wagons?

Noel Found these over the festive period while looking for something completely different These were the Hornby Dublo Breakdown cranes in another life A GWR crane, not sure if this existed or not but GWR was my favourite UK Livery A CIE version, very close to our own steam cranes

With postage I reckon this would have cost around €110 landed over here Worth the money do you reckon?

Anyone notice this little number on the bay? Seller says its a makers plate from an A Class motor, 1955 vintage

This Happy New Year gig 2015, I will give it about a year

Eoin My Saviour Looks like WB did not get what he wrote on his list.......

Read the line above the list girls Looking forward to the New Year already and then the list of soon to be released Supertrain coaches I really think Hon English should be a prerequisite for joining the site

Read the entry AGAIN No one said they were Supertrain coaches You would think even at Christmas you could behave

In 1972 Wrenn became an independent company again Tri Ang Rovex had gotten into financial trouble and all the various companies in their control were sold off Subsidising their overseas manufacturing was thought to be the main cause of their trouble Gallagher Brothers, the cigarette people, attempted a rescue bid but withdrew it when the full debt of the company was revealed Around this time Hornby as we know it today emerged after Rovex Ltd was sold and a new brand was required I remember reading that during the 2nd World War the factory was used to manufacture Sten Guns,

Cyril Fry never lost anything This may have been "found" by the seller

Just out of the cot Crept downstairs and daren't open the dining room door But when I did, I think Paddy Murphy came last night, not Santa!

Before I became a serious WRENN collector I used to dabble with Hornby Dublo Hornby Dublo collapsed in 1964 . Their parent company, Meccano Ltd was taken over by Lines Brothers Lines at the time also owned Tri Ang and it was thought that having 2 competing railway product lines was not a viable option at the time So Tri Ang Hornby was formed. Wrenn was absorbed into the Lines family shortly afterwards Wrenn approached the Lines Board and asked if they could manufacture the Dublo models under the Wrenn name and permission was granted So began the Wrenn brand and indeed some of the first sets sold included some Hornby Dublo wagons and coaches but with the new Wrenn locos Wrenn loco with H/Dublo coaches Wrenn Loco with H/Dublo wagons and coaches

Hens teeth Robie MIR are no longer manufactured and its just a few sad bastards like myself that collect un-made kits that would have them There are a few small manufacturers out there making small runs of them and they turn up from time to time on eBay Check out Studio Scale Models, Irish Freight Models , D&M Models and all the other guys in the manufacturing thread on this forum

Priceless. Robbie.........

I contacted him when he first posted it on eBay, I think this is the 3rd listing for it Sent him a link to a similar Lima 201 that sold for £60. He thanked me and said he got big money for one in the past I sent him a link to MM and explained the reason why the arse had fallen out of the Lima 201's But would he listen.......
