  1. A cuddly toy and a fondue set ?
  2. A number of ex CIE coaches were disposed of in that quarry .
  3. In Inchicore waiting for Uri Geller to put in an appearance and lay his hands upon it .
  4. Yes your probably correct but at the time there was a big imperative to keep the skilled workforce and craftsmen at Inchicore employed and where they could they built them in house , I think the E421's were the last locos built at Inchicore. I was talking to an electrician from Ballyfermot who worked in Inchicore in the 1960's when I asked him about them he remarked that "many holidays and home improvements were paid for with the overtime they got from building the E class" so the wider economy benefited too.
  5. When they are gone they are gone! Hurry up if you want one .
  6. 018 only 3 left , A15 only 1 left, both on the endangered species list too.
  7. There are many books published over the years with a plethora of middle of the road pictures of steam in Ireland they are great because of the rarity of the content with the odd gem in amongst the pictures , this book contains gems of the highest calibure on every page so if you think its too expensive then don't buy it , but if you do buy it you won't be disappointed.
  8. Received my first A class today dispatched yesterday and received from An Post this morning . The loco is simply stunning worth the wait of 3 years .
  9. I have just received a copy of this book and its a super publication worth the price the reproduction of the black and white images is suberb.
  10. No time for that you got to prep some A class for service on Tara Juction first!
  11. Any pics of it in the flesh or are your hands shaking too much to take a photo !
  12. The difference in delivery could be down to hours 24 maybe 48 after waiting 3 years you have to get things into perspective we could be pedantic but is it not worth it considering we have patiently waited this long . Too dispatch the orders in the way you suggest might involve re picking the orders and may inadvertently delay the deliveries overall .
  13. Well it will be an internet Auction too
  14. Interesting auction of memorabilia and vintage models Purcell Auctioneers | Auctions | Exceptional Collection of Irish Railwayana and Model Railway Collectab...
  15. If you fancy re numbering an A class here's a great tutorial on how to re number a loco ,
  16. Get a sound chip and you can have all the music you need
  17. Like buses you wait ages and they all come along at once
  18. Most of those small scanners are not great , I have a reasonablle scanner for 35mm slides , however you should perhaps talk to Eiretrains as he is an expert at scanning older slides etc and might be able to help you or point you in the best direction .
  19. The coach behind 021 is 32xx BGSV converted from 1950's built stock
  20. After waiting this long I think we can wait a few more days.
  21. B5 primary light blue , secondary white.
  22. While not a Park Royal this is a build of a worsley kit by Eoin Murray which is very similar
