Swap black roofed mk2's for orange roofed

[murphaph]

Hi all,

I have 3 of the black roofed Murphy mk2d's in IE livery. I would like to swap these for 3 with orange roofs. If there's any interest feel free to PM me.

Cheers!

Hi @murphaph

Would you be willing to sell these ? 

[murphaph]

Nope. Swaps only .

Would you not use Evan as a broker? He'd definitely get you a great price when re-selling them. Knows just which buttons to push.

[DJ Dangerous]

Did you ever get these swapped in the end?

[murphaph]

Nah I sold them in the end and ordered the new MM ones instead

It always amazes me that people run one coloured roofs only on rakes of coaches
Best rake of Mk 2's I ever saw had both black and orange roofed coaches and a Galway restaurant stuck in the middle

I don't think the rooves had been painted black for @murphaph's chosen era, they were still orange.

Was the roof colour even visible under all the dirt??

Yeah I "model" 1994/1995 (though I may make an exception and allow a 1992 mail train some day!). No black or grey roofs and no Galway livery yet at that stage. The coaches were kept reasonably clean. The orange roofs were even clearly visible on the EGVs most of the time. Living dangerously for me is mixing IR and IE stock together lol.
