I also collection of too many boxed of old train set from 1950s Dublo to 1990s hornby in the loft. I was luck got unboxed 1976 hornby irish hymek with two mk2 coaches at cheaper price from local antique fairs.

I got copy of New Hornby Book of trains today. Hornby Irish Slainte express train set in 1976 Sold through Kilroy Brothers of Dublin ( included solo irish Hymek and MK2 coaches). Do any know information about Kilroy Brothers of Dublin sell hornby Irish stuffs to some Irish dealers?

Good find Dave. Above was diecast bogie triang motor. Did R768 CIE hymek made plastic bogie with Ringfield (silver seal) motor in late 1977/eary 1978? here is the service sheet date 1978 showing R768. Maybe hornby List R768 CIE with new chassis with ringfield motor in 1978 but never production for Irish market?
