Well the Murphy Models MM1710 arrived at the Talbot Hotel Toy & Train Fair yesterday I think it would have great to see its reference number as MM1916, but thats just the old republican in me His second new issue,MM1509, Early Livery Snack Car was unfortunately left in his garage, so hopefully I will have some pics later in the week. Painted gun ports to confuse snipers

Dave You would want your name & phone number tattooed on the soles of your feet......

Granny B said she could do a few moves, depending on her rider request being met Tube of Pollygrip to stop her teeth falling out Pack of Abri-Flex Premium, keep her nice and dry Mug of Cocoa after every 3 dances, keep the sugar levels up Some sawdust on the floor in case she spills Finally a few minutes with Bosko or Blaine, shes not picky.

Not a Pre Production 121 I'm afraid. New model is an addition to a previous release.

Drop in when you get there Noel

Noel, I am adding you as the 3rd candidate Hopefully they wont allow any airbrushes or Mr Surfacer on the trip. And hopefully there will be no WiFi on Mars!!!

Hoping to have some at Stillorgan on Sunday And maybe another new MM model, fingers crossed

Update from Murphy Models Announcing the arrival of our 2 vehicle set, comprising a Leyland Fire Engine and Daimler APC (armoured personel carrier). Available from our usual stockists, deliveries starting later this week.SRP E55.00. In their own way, each vehicle is unique. The fire engine is the first on a Leyland chassis and the first Dublin motorised appliance. It was designed in 1909 by Capt. Purcell, chief fire officer for Dublin. Three examples were built in Scotland. One remained in southern England and the other went to the Indian sub-continent. Nothing further is known about them.The Dublin version was scrapped c.1950. The Daimlers were leased from Guinness by the British Army and fitted with 4 smoke boxes in Inchicore Railway Works. They were welded together, gun ports cut, dummy gun ports painted and rear smoke box door left in situ. The forerunners of the modern day APCs! They were returned to Guinness in due course. The Leyland Fire Engine is supplied with decals (inc. spares) which should be placed on the gold outlined panels forward of the "Dublin Fire Department" plaque (behind the front seat, not on the side of the front seat.)

Yes Got a call yesterday to say they had arrived and should be available by the weekend

First 2 candidates just been selected

A few candidates on here for that first flight to Mars.....

Because of serious clusterfooks with so called professional model makers I will refrain from commenting on this thread. You pays your money and you takes your chances.

My pics Paul Back of signal box had a corrugated lean too After a big clean up of the site:

I heard the position has been filled Dave? Looking forward to some pics of his work

Some old pics of Loughrea, an end to end 21mm MRSI Layout It was in the process of being stripped before being displayed at the Dun Laoghaire show. The baseboards to the left are for the O Connell St layout to give you some idea of size Also there is a small fiddle yard behind the far Loughrea sign.

Not bad for an Architect
