Hi Dave,

Good find Irish set, I check 'Bests' on Hornby International service dealer network date November 1976 list but found nothing.

I think the 'Bests' is a Toy shop such as Toysmaster and maybe someone brought from UK?

You've got some beauties there! Do you have the br103? Beautiful loco.

You mean Electric TEE Class 103?, Yes I have six locos.

Very nice Black streamlined.
