MM0171 Came out in Feb '11

Hows this for an inexpensive bit of history Picked it up recently, owner was thinking of bringing it to the recycle bank! And contrary to what has been printed on some sites the vendor was not preyed on or vunerable and got a very fair price for this piece of Irish railway history, unlike our mutual friend in Naas.

Spares have been ordered, and are in stock

Dont forget 171 in IE livery, commissioned by Marks So realistically CIE Black & IE liveries are the most common

I know a man........

A good hint for some of you ham handed modellers out there Saw this today while Fishplate was busy running his new locos Use these coloured tags to indicate which ends match when putting your loco back in its box. Why anyone would want to take it out is beyond me!

Be careful JB, I'm still on commission......

A quick look at CIE

If you use eBay.ie and sell your bits here there should be no extra fees JB?

Try paying first Paul, that usually helps

From 1 January 2021, eBay will be legally required to begin collecting and remitting VAT for UK imports. From that date, eBay will have to charge buyers the applicable VAT amount directly and remit this sum to the relevant authorities. Irish sellers trading with UK buyers and listing on the UK or any EU site will need to provide both gross prices as well as the applicable VAT rate used to calculate the gross price on all listings. If sellers do not specify gross prices and VAT rates, eBay will have to assume that the price provided is the net price, and will add VAT on top of the price displayed to buyers.

Just had a call from a small bearded gent who tells me that the locos have just landed in London.........

They have landed in London so I reckon early next week with MM and then towards the end of the week with retailers Hip Hip.....

Looks like they are shifting old stock, had some older kits previously and they came in those cardboard boxes rather than the newer blue box that they come in now
