This has to be some kind of record for this particular coach? I have 5 of them so maybe I should get selling.

Its a GNR(I) Flat Wagon with two Bread Containers.

Jeremy also did an NCC Flat with Bread Containers.

He also produced a UTA Parcel Van apparently modified from an ex-GN Bread Van (non-passenger coaching stock)

I have a few of Jeremys kits including GNR Covered Wagon (van), MGWR Coal Wagon, GNR Flat with Bread Containers very nice kits very rare only produced a single batch of each type no repeats.

I have not seen the NCC Flat or the UTA Parcels/GNR Bread Van.

Three of my wagons on sale on eBay. Reasonable starting price.

I was even tempted by the UTA wagon myself, as I think I left myself with just one!

While I'm posting, I noted that the 00 Works GNR U Class went for double what it cost the original buyer. I knew I should have bought ten UGs!

The postage costs more then the starting bid on some of these 

 

still kicking myself I didn’t pick up those RTR dapol wagons converted to GNR. They’dve ran on the west cork as I’m after learning!

I had a look, this really stood out:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/234935362987?hash=item36b33d25ab:g:FM0AAOSwDBFkE0gY

 

It is very similar to the transporter that shipped with one of the Joeuf CIE sets in 1978. I still have mine.

They did a HDI Made in Ireland carrier, hens teeth jobbie
Have a boxed version somewhere.....

 

 

 

[gph2000]

I think the set available in 1978 predates HDI - it says "Made in France" underneath and the transporter included is more like the Playcraft versions currently for sale.

As for the box the set came in, the cardboard top was discarded somewhere in the nineties, and my wife decided that the styrofoam tray had to go somewhere around the turn of the century. The train currently lives in a Hornby DMU box and a pair of coach boxes associated with that same DMU.

No longer available either, for their time they were good, but the gap has been well covered now

About 15-20 years ago.  They were based on older MTK kits but sadly the proprietor of No Nonsense Kits passed away in 2010.

There are three 111’s and seven 071’s on EBay UK Murphy models. Some finish tonight @10pm, others tomorrow night 10-11pm.

 

Started with very low opening bids a few days ago. Now all up to insanely high prices, and there are 12 hours for the red mist to set in and drive the prices even higher.

Maybe a mod can merge this with the eBay Watch thread?

Starting that low is going to give us a good sense of the value of these items.

The grey 071s are both over €300 and there's still three days of bidding to go. Who knows how much higher they'll go?

Seems daft for what in truth are Toy trains, that will one day eventually be re-run with better specs, so collecting 1st gen models now will devalue not appreciate. This seems like a repeat of Lima 201s all over again and you couldn't give those away now even as a door stop.

Much higher if this recent grey is anything to go by:

Both grey 071's now well outside my price range - both currently around the €370 mark.

@Fowler4fdid post about these in a different thread, and I'm pretty sure he posted in another different thread a week or two back, when this seller sold another load of stuff.
