WRENNEIRE

I can think of a few places to put Murrayer, what with being so handy and all Pick a window...

We said we would never speak of it again......

While slowly restoring the first few pages I came across this set which I previously did not catalogue L149801 One of the odd sets with 2 Mk 111's and a Mk 11 One of the Mk 111's is a Restaurant # 7411 Mk 11 is #5201 & other Mk 11 is #7115

I know Murphys stuff has been manufactured with 21mm conversion in mind Not sure how easy it is but I have seen a couple of 141's running quite happily on the broad gauge track Which reminds me we must get Lough Derg back up and running again, nice little 21mm layout.

Hi Due to some requests from newer members who have not seen the original pics in this thread I am in the process of replacing all the Photobucket pics I have not been able to access Photobucket today so I took some new pics of the items in question I will be starting at the beginning and doing one or two pics a day so bear with me I might do more when I can access Photoemptybucket! Enjoy

Got my load this morn and am pulling myself asunder since! Jasus Shem, there are children on this forum Mop up, Aisle 3 ............

One shot Bang Bang.....

Any chance of some pics Des?

You don' need to see me in my speedos.....

Yep Afraid I won't be able to attend Some R&R with Granny Bracken

Just got a mail from Dropbox They are looking for €99 pa for the privilege Think going back to 35 (or 34.98 for the rivet counters) might be the way forward?

Looks very interesting Noel However my posts were placed back in 2012, so the edit feature is not available on them, like myself too old Any idea how edit might be reinstated?

Plenty of time on my hands Stephen Probably opt for the manual fix

Stephen I have had some lads asking about the missing pics on the Lima/Murphy Models thread Is there any way I can edit the old posts to insert new pics? Cheers

As if a medal could make up for the way these hero's were treated

Jasus.......

Any use?

The fact that they had to surrender because of lack of supplies and ammunition was seen by the Irish Government as embarrassing and an excuse not to honour these brave men because of political and strategic errors by the UN at the time Indeed the term Jadotville Jack was used later in the Irish Army to describe anyone who neglected to do his duty. Great film by the way, check it out if you have not seen it, its on Netflicks.

A friend got to the final of the local model railway competition. He lost on points. Never liked the troll who lives under the local railway bridge. He’s my arch enemy. Went to a railway fancy dress party. Everyone was wearing platforms. Got a couple of railway buffers going cheap. It was an end of line sale. I’ve always liked one-liners. That’s why I’m a fan of monorails. Ticket inspectors. You’ve got to hand it to them… What’s the difference between a teacher and a railway security guard? One trains the mind, the other minds the trains… I know someone who tried to runway after camouflaging a railway. He tried to cover his tracks. I miss the old days of railway when the engineer had plenty of esteem. Some local engineers took a train for a service, but the vicar said it was blocking the aisle. A train track and a motorway walk into a bar. The train track says “a pint for me, please, and one for the road”. I know an elephant who refused to travel by train because he didn’t want to leave his trunk in the baggage car. A friend of mine quit his job as a reporter and left town by railway. It was an ex-press train. And of course… How would you work out how heavy a whale is? You would take it to a whale weigh station…. Sorry, I'll get me coat..........

Have a look here Guinness had a few but they were bogied wagons

Noel Might I suggest that you put the Pro Go on a flat wagon in front of your loco and push it along? Should give a much better view of the layout

Colin Because of the new MM 201's these Lima ones are not as popular as once they were I really try and avoid them and usually offer somewhere in the region of €30 - €40 for them as a trade in Would then try to get €50 or so for them after a full service

Love these sellers Mad price and will post to UK only https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LIMA-00-IE-CIE-IRISH-RAILWAYS-CLASS-201-LOCO-207-RIVER-BOYNE-EXCLNT-BOXED-CDTN/263294785476?hash=item3d4d9797c4:g:rQ0AAOSwYxBZ~FrW
