Mol_PMB Posted December 29, 2025 Posted December 29, 2025 Lots of Irish Mk2s on eBay this week, if Santa brought you more money than you know what to do with: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/147059508743 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/147059466563 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/147058933561 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/147058944058 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/147058951137 And a Hattons full brake: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/366086659179 I am not suggesting that these are sensible prices! 1
Mol_PMB Posted December 31, 2025 Posted December 31, 2025 I've just put this SSM GSWR coach kit on my watch list, although I suspect it will be more economical for someone based in Ireland. The starting price is fair, and these aren't usually available individually so it's a good opportunity to get just the one rather than a whole rake of six: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/236556240524

DJ Dangerous Posted January 4 Posted January 4 IRM A Class no. 027 in SuperTrain livery, current highest bid €102 EURO, listing finishes in seven days: https://www.ebay.es/itm/227153167493 Murphy Models 141 Class no. 141 kn preserved black livery, DCC fitted, €240 EURO: https://www.ebay.es/itm/205906489428 Rails do have a few used 141’s listed, but as they’re more expensive than the in-stock second run, I haven’t bothered posting them. Bachmann N Class / K1A / Woolwich / Mogul, un-numbered, €52 EURO, zero bids, finishes in seven days: https://www.ebay.es/itm/227152979439 Worth highlighting that all three are UK based sellers so final price will probably be 25% higher for EU buyers. 1
Mol_PMB Posted January 4 Posted January 4 Good spots, DJD! Here are a few more that may be of interest: H vans, 2 out of a 3-pack, price is currently reasonable for that: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/267528643924 Gypsum hoppers 3-pack, these don't come up often: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/227153146643 Light green A42: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/227153161604 Not forgetting from @Georgeconna of this parish, a weedspray train: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/236556205426 2

Interesting how the boxes have faded. Same has happened to several of mine, but only the parts not protected by transparent plastic sheeting. 1

leslie10646 Posted February 9 Posted February 9 (edited) Thanks for the tip-off @DJ Dangerous! Belief it or not but I have been known to sell my own stock which then needs replacing! Edited February 9 by leslie10646 1

As far as I know, he has only taken on the 009, 00n3, and the HOn3 ranges. Allen is still looking for someone to take on the Irish Standard (5ft 3ins) gauge ranges across the scales. The 4mm Irish NG has gone to Stan, but other scales may still be available. Allen once told me that he does not always put all his Irish kits on the website, which are for sale. 1

It looks like Des is only offering the postal van now: https://www.studio-scale-models.com/Coaches.shtml. The GSR Pullman coaches are a personal interest.
