WRENNEIRE

I have most of the running numbers available if there is a loco that you may have missed back in the day!

Couple of Mk 3 repaints on eBay this evening, finished at around 7pm They were at £5, so I thought I would have a little punt, finishing in 30 minutes When I placed my bid I got the dreaded "Wont post to Ireland" notice I checked the sellers location COLERAINE! Some sellers need help

So we're speaking now?

Kids layout? Silver Fox A Class? 141 & Cravens? 201? Leyland R Type 27A? 35 YEAR OLD KID METHINKS!

I would take a car load up from Dublin Couple of fold down seats in the back so could bring 6 + myself 2 in the back would need to be skinny though

It was a line of the worst ever

What can I say, Honours Chineese!

Which as we all know means: Are you my dear brother, you need mental help! They see a nice video though (in preparation)!

Whats with the "my baby" crap Walter? She's my baby now Time to earn her keep!

Cheers Paul Welcome to the site!

John Jonh Byrnes involvement goes back to his friendship with the Wrenn brothers, Cedric & George, They were friends and when Wrenn decided to stop their involvement with Lima they introduced John to the MD of Lima and this is where the HO Irish items were born. John was the General Manager of Lexie Keady Ltd at this time. Together with Lexie they travelled to the Nuremburg Toyfair in 1974 and obtained the agency. John suggeste dthe repainting of the Cl 33 & Mk 11 coaches into the Supertrain Set and later the 4F & Mk 1 Coaches into the Old Irish Mainline set. When it was discovered that OO was the gauge of choice these items were in 1975 in OO gauge Lima produced some sets during the 80's and these will be covered in a later thread Paddy did not arrive on the scene till 1997 Lima first produced their N Gauge items in 1968, so I am presuming that John Byrne also was responsible for the Passenger & Freight Irish sets that were available at the same time as the HO sets. Next item in the history lesson is the Lima Mk 111 restaurant coach Item # L305340 A repainted BR Mk 3 coach, not prototypically correct but not too far off. Only 300 of these boxed coaches were produced Coach #7403 In April 2009 one of these ladies sold for €611.50 on EbaY!

Reckon you got out of gaol there Joe About €50 worth of stuff there on a very good day

Sorry Anto Should have said, its HO

Richie A 20' chassis from Shapeways ( when available) would cost around €30 posted to Ireland Multiple buys in the past had postage of around €5 on each item, they really ripped me off on postage Dont know if they have fixed the postage cost now but they do work out expensive.

Always worth going to these smaller events Couple of new traders there this morning Diarmid Byrne (ex Greens Bookshop) selling books railway bits and pieces etc Brendan Curran, selling American outline mainly but also some general railway bits Our own Walter (Kinvara Train) is also a regular Managed to pick up a little something for myself Marklin BR-191 in mint condition

Eamonn Can you scan the Catalogue and post it on here? Like Mayner mine hit the Green Bin when Granny Bracken went on one of her mad cleaning binges I broke every bone in her corset as a big thank you! I have a list of all his wagons somewhere, I will try and dig it out

Anyone going to this gig in the morning? Hope to be there around midday for an hour or so There's a small kitchen there, handy for a chat or to just shoot the breeze

Richie Its a picture of a picture The original is in a box somewhere in the MRSI I saw it when we were moving from one premises to another to facilitate some repairs to our clubrooms Should be able to dig it out in the next couple of weeks
