Really saddened to hear this news. A gentleman that always had time for a chat and answered any and all questions.
The 141-181 models were when first produced class leading models in 00 gauge. They are still amazing models today.
RIP Paddy and sincere condolences to the family at this time.
I'd definitely take some. I love the 141-181 MM models and the prototypes were and are still my favourites. Let me know how you get on and how many sets could be produced. I always regretted not getting any of the Appleby Models buffers.
Rich,
My 3 pack of Ivory Bubbles arrived on Tuesday. They are an amazing model so much detail. The parts diagram shows how many actual parts go into producing the model. Price wise it looks a bargain.

Looking at these photos and having seeing them close up over the decades it really shows how amazing the IRM bulk cement wagons are. It is important for former rolling stock now scrapped to have at least one of each type preserved for historical purposes.
Lovely job on the cravens Jason they really are a great coach model and have really stood the test of time. A few mixed rakes of cravens and park royals from IRM will look amazing.

It's been sometime since a model design, build, and finishing off with paint and decoration has truly been as amazing as this is.
I agree when the hobby becomes a job it ceases to be a hobby.
Rich,
