I bet the seat got more of a shock when he sat in it!

Pic of Casino Far from a little house

I see they do a Lapland Express Does this run after 11.30PM?

Thats a Lexie Keady one Anto I will cover it later when all the MM stuff is done.

From the States?

I think even I could do that Simples

I would prefer a stuffed wallet...............said the spider to the fly:rolleyes:

I propose an Irishrailwaymodeller day out to Downpatrick Can anyone here organise it?

The HO was produced in 1977 in conjunction with the British stuff by LIMA themselves as their first foray into the Irish/UK markets It was because of the failure of the HO that LIMA then looked for an Irish involvement so that they would have more feedback etc I will get to the LIMA/Lexie stuff later in the lesson!

I propose to post pictures of all the models produced by Murphy Models in sequence from their days with LIMA to the current models produced by Murphy Models Lima produced models of British outline stock These were then offered to Lima agent in Dublin, Lexie Keady He then accepted or refused the sets and the accepted ones went on general release here Towards the end of the 90's Keady retired from the trade and Murphy Models began a relationship with LIMA that saw them produce some of the first authentic Irish railway models This is their first attempt , set # L105100X33 released in 1997, possibly as few as 300 made. It was released in the Lima Hobby Range line. It was classed as a starter set, It consists of a Cl33 repainted as an A Class # 015 This model had been produced by LIMA for Tynan and was accepted as an Irish loco at the time, the Tynan model was numbered 215. Coaching stock consisted of a Mk 2D #5228 and a Mk 3 Restaurant # 7115 It also came with a traffo and track. 300 Sets believed to have been produced

Some light reading about the move http://www.merrionstreet.ie/index.php/2012/04/varadkar-welcomes-breakthrough-for-fry-model-railway/

I even wash my hands before.

To the best of my knowledge and don’t quote me, there will again be a purpose built building to house the Fry The original building on the site, "Casino" will be used as an administrative building with tea rooms etc There is 1.5 bar to buy the house and build the premises, which has outline planning permission from a previous project for the same site The site is adjacent to Malahide train Station Dont know how long it will take to build but dont hold your breath lads.

I second that

Read the post again dude! I only translated what Bosko said, DOH

Boskos post as Gaeilge: An bfhuil cead agam dul go dti an leithreas, Please excuse the spelling!

I like it Broithe, I like it a lot!

Jasus lads, weve a lot to thank the ould Christian Brothers for. Abutebaris modo subjunctivo denuo ( You've been misusing the subjunctive again) Oh, the fun we had!

Have to say I think they are pure class Best non ready to run model out there Gareths attention to detail is as bad as PMurphys Each model has some very slight differences from each other The paint job was not the worst in the world either

Would also be interested if you find any unmade ones Trying to get some unmade boxed MIR kits for my collection The plan is to have them all in unmade condition with all the appropriate parts A bit sad I know but if no one does it their history will be lost forever

Theres a chap called Paul Roche in Texas He bought the remainder of the JoueF stock whic included a lot of Mk 111 bits Dont see him on the new site yet Give him a shout proche@marriottdfwcc.com

Declan As far as I remember MM 141/181's should be run in slowly for about an hour in each direction, and they really do benefit from this Helps everything bed in and mesh properly
