Quite the opposite Kieran

When I picked them up I took pictures but cannot for the life of me find half of them

When I moved on my Wrenn collection recently I pulled the house apart and have not gotten it back into any sort of order yet

I start to sort it out, then find a loco in a box with a few bits missing, start to look for some parts, find something else that I had forgotten about and next thing its time to peel the spuds and I have got nothing done

This retirement gig is hard work men.

A friend asked about some of the Bachmann 57' CIE Coaches

I went to my stash and found a couple that I had not cataloged back in '12

Basically Bachmann had produced these coaches as LMS 57' and they owned the moulds etc

Murphy had them painted into CIE colours and given them a range of running numbers

Bachmann USA then had them produced into their 00651 Irish Railway set, N class loco & 3 57' coaches

I think it caused a bit of hassle at the time but nothing he could do about it

They also produced 2 additional coaches to enhance the set,74700 , 3rd class coach 1337 & 74701 a Brake 3rd 1088

Premium HO Scale but are in fact OO scale.

 

74700

74701

00651

The coaches in this set are:

3rd/Brake  1096

All 3rd  1333

1st/3rd 2097

So with the 5 that MM produced through Bachmann this makes a total of 10 of these fine coaches.
