Picked up these at the Stillorgan gig
Not train related but just shows what is out there
A pair of Triumph Garda figures by Britains.
Never released as a mainstream product but a small amount, believed to be around 50 were commissioned by the Triumph agents in
Ireland in the early 70's when Triumph triumphed with the order to provide their motorcycles to the Gardai
They differ from the "Police Patrolman on Triumph" model in that the bike colour is a darker shade, the shirt & tie is also blue as compared to white on the Police one
The bike also has leg defenders fitted which did not appear on any other Britains Police model.
These are available at any of the fairs I do with Chris Dyer
RRP £165 or €200 depending on the rate
However liveries and running numbers are limited to whats available on the day
S/F will not have any new Irish outline bits till Feb at the earliest and then it depends on what he has produced, not what you want
Looking at the Box for the A that sold its for A7 in Black/Orange/White livery so I reckon there are some more bits to come from this seller
An L149439-1 set that this seller had listed was sold to an American friend of the forum for €103. A bargain compared to what this set made 3 years ago!
Darstead produced Tin Plate coarse scale models back in the day
They have had a reinvention in the last couple of years and although they stated they were staying true to the old companys values their new range of locos looks stunning, very detailed for coarse scale
Theit coaches still have the tin plate "toy" look but their new wagon range looks impressive
Couple of UK based agents so it may be available a bit cheaper from the UK, at least the postage would be half or so.
I have a list Fran
The writing is terrible and it does not say what they deal in
Anyone in particular you are looking for?
Couple of guys also selling off their own collections so sure to be a few bargains
At the moment we have 80 tables sold so there should be something for everyone
