WRENNEIRE

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

Ah Jasus..... €280!!! https://www.ebay.ie/itm/Murphy-Models-class-181-MM0187-IE-livery-Weathered-and-DCC-Fitted/264934334862?hash=item3daf51218e:g:0OYAAOSwNl9frA5u

Absolutely no idea what this is

Would have been working from home .........

Who's to say they did not approach some of the box shifters and these few were what was left?

And them is pounds! Brexit really has our Northern brethren upset!

I think the action is against the Spanish seller, Also 2 other companies who used the same manufacturer were stung similarly

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!!!

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!!!

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

I know a man....... PM Sent

I think the .5 is actually 1.5, Fran never got the lock for the fridge during these hard to pass the fridge times?

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!

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

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

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

Where are you based Brasser, might be someone local that might be able to drop by?

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

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
