  1. Would have been working from home .........
  2. Who's to say they did not approach some of the box shifters and these few were what was left?
  3. And them is pounds! Brexit really has our Northern brethren upset!
  4. I think the action is against the Spanish seller, Also 2 other companies who used the same manufacturer were stung similarly
  5. Some lads from the SDMRC on this forum, hopefully one should contact you Over the 5km for me but if nothing bad happens before the end of level 5 I might wander over that far Hate crossing the Liffey!!!
  6. Girls To the best of my knowledge MM has taken legal action against the Spanish seller The items that were for sale were supplied by the original manufacturer in breach of contract Basically the manufacturer made more models than were ordered and sold them on to a third party They were not bought from someone going out of business So these items are the property of MM Anyone who bought them from the Spanish seller may have to return them to MM, so not the bargain they appeared tp be. Caveat emptor!!!
  7. How would you guys rate Irish Railways Traction & Travel by Peter Jones I have a second edition, 1989, with black & white & colour photos Very comprehensive sections on all locos and coaching stock, including DMU's & Darts One downside is that there is no freight section
  8. I know a man....... PM Sent
  9. I think the .5 is actually 1.5, Fran never got the lock for the fridge during these hard to pass the fridge times?
  10. MM stuff does not go back to the UK man, he distributes it from here, he usually drops my bits off on his way back from the Airport!
  11. For the last time people it is highly unlikely that either of these models will be re released by MM. We have gone over this a dozen times so I will not repeat the math involved but unless another manufacturer gets involved they will not be coming out any time soon
  12. Air George
  13. Some good news Bob Hopefully the Black & IR ones should ship this weekend and the remainder first week in December everything going well. Possible delays getting them to the retailers depending on the COVID situation but there definitely will be something to put under the Christmas tree
  14. Some man for one man! His sons are not interested in continuing the business ( and neither am I !!!) But don't write the auld codger off yet
  15. Where are you based Brasser, might be someone local that might be able to drop by?
  16. I know a man.........
  17. What is derailing? Locos coaches wagons? Is it just one item or does everything derail? Back to back measurements might help But as Eoin says if its Hornby points its a common problem
  18. Dont understand your question man, InterCity resprayed into what? Or do you just want an InterCity with the new logo
  19. As an aside to the joke in '78 I was working in the Ordnance Survey ( a junior cartographer, no less) in the Phoenix Park One morning on my way in I noticed 2 trucks with a load of turf mold in each They tipped it all over the road and began to level it out At lunch time we came out to see Mr Connery & the lovely Lesley Ann Downes riding down the newly covered road on their horses, so now I always look out for turf mold on roadways in pictures that were set back in the day!
  20. Knock Knock Who's there? Dishes Dishes who? Dishes Sean Connery Boom Boom!
  21. A nice review for those interested from Model Rail,
  22. Lima offered this set to MM, he took it thinking it was a set that would have run together, remember at the time he was a retailer, not the font of knowledge he is now! He got some stick when the set became available and I think that set him on the path to make the current series of finely detailed MM models we see today.
  23. I know a man who has had 3 for repainting if anyone is brave enough?
