  1. You were right about the 800 Pat, they did a Maedhbh kit and also a BAT tank, The coaches were 57' LMS Staniers
  2. The UK outline would not be of interest to me Fran, I think collecting Wrenn for 20 years or so has extinguished that flame I have been trying to source any unmade Irish kits made by the Brothers Grimm but so far it has proved impossible The MRSI actually held their meetings there back in the day, there are some stories about the POLIS being called there in the early hours of the morning, some passer by had rung to say that there was an IRA meeting being held there! Minister, just for you, in all her cardboard glory.
  3. A lot of the Fry work was one off, they would receive the model and then set about building one to run on the layout, the Fry example being returned to the display area before you entered the layout area The 800 is stirring something in my grey head, they also did some coaches but again I am not sure what they were Should have more info after the MRSI meet this evening
  4. Fran I am a collector not a historian:D However I know a man who worked with the Mc Gowans and I will buy him a pint and see what happens I know they did a couple of Irish loco kits, but what they were eludes me at the moment
  5. Dont think so Steve They may have been promotional material? I dont see any printers name on the card
  6. A later price sheet, The address has moved from Monck Place to Peters Road, Phibsboro This would have been after the shop had closed and the brothers were selling from Peter McGowans home in Phibsboro Peter had a fine workshop in his back garden and all these kits were produced there Priced in Stg & Euro so early 99/2000 perhaps
