WRENNEIRE

specksavers?

Most unboxed wagons of the older variety struggle to make €3, never mind £3

And there he was, gone............

Fantastic layout I thought The amount of detail was stunning Fort Camden.

Anyone recognise this kidnapper? Loads of really interesting accessories Well worth a visit if you manage to make it tomorrow.

A project coming to fruition A lot more work to be done but a really good looking model all the same

Professional MRSI Tea Maker and cleaner upper Hope to have a building or two by Glenderg, Malahide signal Box has been mentioned...............

I'll never forget last Christmas.................

Knock yourself out Fran This one has me head melted

Thats a story for a new thread The shop was in Monk Place and the idea of the MRSI was created there after many long nights talking trains! Both of the McGowan brothers are still alive to this day.

Just to remind everyone that Dun Laoghaire is on this weekend 12 midday - 5pm both Saturday & Sunday Trade & Exhibits Hope to see you all there

August 2001 also saw the introduction of the Bachmann CIE range of Green 57' Coaches So to fully appreciate what Murphy Models were at, here we see him dealing with 2 different manufacturers at the same time First coaches are 3rd/Brakes 34-226 Running numbers 1087 & 1095 300 of each coach produced 1st/3rd 34-251 Running number 2096 Again only 300 of this coach produced 3rd Class Running numbers 1332 & 1336 300 of each produced I have to say these are some of my favourite coaches, something about them just oozes class

Broite, lovin it!!!

Found these while wiping an old hard drive Downpatrick/Cultra I think?

Lima produced 3 GWR style horsebox's in 1979 L305625 GWR Brown L305626 LMS Maroon L305628 Southern Green Here is the Brown GWR Liveried one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LIMA-5626-GW-GWR-BROWN-HORSE-BOX-WAGON-No-546-NEW-BOXED-ms-/220983497108?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item3373a49194 I will keep an eye out for a Southern Green one and see if it will pass muster.

Roger, good buddy Should have said, DOH!

I'm listening to the RAIN on my window , brings back sweet memories, NOT Ann Peebles was covered by Tina Turner on Private Dancer and also by Missy Elliott on DSupa Dupa Fly

Traders should have their quotas in time for the show, so I am told

Frank Locomotives & Rolling Stock of Coras Iompair Eireann & Northern Ireland Railways by O. Doyle & S. Hirsch do not list any Horseboxes The book was published in 1979 but ststes that when CIE was nationalised in 1950 it began a stock replacement programme which resulted in the almost complete elimination of pre CIE vehicles by 1960, CIE also had a road transport devision at this time and may have moved horses by truck?

Steve, thanks for the input, I think they were a large department store and would have stocked sets for Christmas, so were not recognised as a srockist Fran, the polly insert was generic and as the set only contains 4 wagons the "Extra Storage Space" stickers were placed in the empty slots, The Slainte Express had a similar empty slot as it only contained 2 coaches whereas the similar UK BR version had 3

Funny old hobby this A couple of weeks ago I have never heard nor seen a Hornby "C.I.E. Superfreight set" Now I have a second! Different guy to the one I got the first one from Both sets bought in Bray I see there is a "Bests" price tag on this set £19.95 in old money! Anyone know anything about the shop? Its a 1977 issue set so that will be somewhere to start from.
