WRENNEIRE

I watched the end of this auction, a couple of bids were retracted and there was one bidder in particular who bid first on the set and retracted last He also bid on another item this seller had listed The second bid retraction was from a bidder that I have seen retract on Irish items in the past Puts a huge bid in to see what the highest bid is and if its too much he retracts, complains about postage being too high etc. Where are the eBay Polis when you want them?

What goes on tour Des......

Frank All lineside poles were supplied by the P&T so they would be no different from normal roadside poles Obviously size differs from place to place but an out it the country pole would normally carry 12 - 24 lines, nothing out of the ordinary Dapol do some in kit form http://www.newmodellersshop.co.uk/images/dapol/c024-telegraph-poles.jpg

Mornin Looking for some Thomas the Tank stuff Locos, coaches wagons etc Grandson has tried to wreck some of my Irish stuff I reckon it would be safe to let him loose on some Thomas stuff Might swap for some 141'S 201'S ?

Nice day at Bray yesterday You never know what will turn up in a small event like this Got me 2 great buys Hornby Dublo 2034 set " The Royal Scot" MM/Bachmann N Class & 5 coaches, Loco was hardwired & chipped!

To the best of my knowledge it remained in unlined black from the time it entered CIE until its withdrawl in '55

All my bluffing will be called now Des, Thanks a bunch But how did Wiki miss out on the name Lima itself? Lavarazione Italia Metalli ed Affini, The Italian Metalwork Production SOMETHING?

Not yet Mike Have them on my shopping list!

Robert This was a bad attempt at train humour Sorry:SORRY:

Missed another bargain Must be more vigilant http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281025324240?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Thought you might I have "several" myself

I wonder if any other boxed examples are out there? Anyone else have one?

In late 2005 I spotted this loco Plain white box No polly inner 209 NIR AGO Models, Italy When Lima/Jouef went bang Ago Models bought most of the remaining stock from the receivers From bits that were in stock they built around 60 - 70 Blue 209's No detailing parts Really one for the collector!

I think that yellow head is on this forum? Or is it yellow belly?

All 112's are sold from Murphy Models No more can be ordered from him However some shops still have some for sale PM me if you need one! The second delivery of 071's arrived but are not custom cleared yet They will be with the retailers early next week Looks like there might be no delivery before Christmas of the orange? 071 or the Mk 2 coaches He is working frantically to make it happen but things are not looking good at the moment Please wait for further updates before posting stupid comments

I heard you came out ages ago?

Frank Your as handy as a small pot! (PS Small pots are very handy)

Yep Reason its hard to find a boxed one is that the Box was cut up to make the buildings on the rear, which were HO!

Kieran All the Lima / Jouef items were released in Dec 03 They also took on the LT prefix as opposed to the L prefix They were in liquidation shortly after these models were released and then finally sold out to Hornby in late 2004.

Will this be the push you need to give up the smokes?

Add Bisto!

Think I have one in a stock box somewhere if you are interested?

Didnt see any pics of Mala Mala or Hazelwood house? STORY:mad:

This is the BR version of the Irish freight set It has a white wagon (Gulf I think ) and also the Motorail car carrier Looks like it could be a mixed version of both sets The Irish car carrier is a darker shade of Blue/Green and does not have the Motorail logo The Supertrain A Class was a more common loco compared to the IR one which came in the Irish InterCity set This set also has Capris on the box lid and also in the car carrier If you ever get a chance to have a scout at the box could you check the reference number please? Irish IR InterCity sets carried the ref LIMA 106300X03 for the freight set & LIMA 106300X02 for the passenger set
