WANTED: IRM / BritBus Dublin Buses

[DJ Dangerous]

Hi All.

I'm looking for the following two IRM buses:

CitySwift no. 13A

https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/exclusive-irm-buses/products/copy-of-dublin-bus-cityswift-13a

RailLink no. 90

https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/exclusive-irm-buses/products/dublin-bus-rail-link-volvo-rv-class-olympian-rv517

Also interested in any of the older BritBus Dublin buses, if anybody has any to spare.

I DO know a man, but think that he may possibly be all bussed out at the moment...

Thanks!

[Tarabuses]

I have a few Britbus/Irbus models surplus to requirements if you want to contact me.

Speaking of buses, I picked this one up for €20 including postage yesterday:

Only found out after the event! Got €300 for two Irbus, an airlink and a EFE Bus eireann, which then bought two Murphy models 201s in the big IRM sell off a few months back.. Miss my buses but I kept a few good ones 

The NOT for sale pile! 

[DJ Dangerous]

 

You did well on them!

Funny seeing people in long sleeves.

Don't worry, we'll get those four 141's down here somehow, and you can use one as your summer residence.

With big thanks to @Tarabuses (and no thanks to that @MOGUL fellow) I've filled a few gaps in the bus collection.

Also picked up a nice BritBus Dublin bus from @Westcorkrailway's buddy, Irishbloke77 for a fair price.

I'm still on the hunt for two IRM BritBus commissions:

CitySwift no. 13A

https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/exclusive-irm-buses/products/copy-of-dublin-bus-cityswift-13a

RailLink no. 90

https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/exclusive-irm-buses/products/dublin-bus-rail-link-volvo-rv-class-olympian-rv517

Still hungry for the older BritBus Dublin buses, if anybody has any that they want to let go.

It just happens that I ran into a man today that might be able to help on this and a few railway models enquiries people might have

Those look like they would have put a big dent in the bank balance! Any pics of them out of the boxes?

Out of the boxes?

Out of the boxes???

Are you insane?

They live in their boxes, and then those boxes go into other boxes to protect the boxes!

[WRENNEIRE]

Any idea what these kits are?
Jim Poots I was told by the seller

At least we know there is something other than a stapler in the boxes! Very nice, how much did that set you back Dave? 

[DJ Dangerous]

Looks lovely in the "new" DB livery! Took me a while to get used to the new one after the Jacobs orange on them.

[Sean]

now unscrew the plinth and place it on your layout!

Granny Bracken occasionally throws her good eye on this forum man, could have picked up a Grey 071 with sound and still had the price of an ice cream
