A Shackleton and Irish railways - what more could you want...?

 

It used to be said that all applicants for the RAF Police were rigorously tested - and only those that failed were accepted...

found this little shop called 'Buffer Books' which deals in second hand and of print railway books , and they have a section dedicated to irish railways. might be of use to someone out there! heres the link

Well done Seamus with the link. Some of the prices are good, others a bit steep.

 

Some of you guys will know that I fundraise for the RPSI here in England (only 40 years so far). Mainly through selling books - we have over a thousand titles, I think. We are the John Lewis of railway bookselling - few people are more reasonable.

 

They include everything in print on Ireland and a lot of out of print titles.

 

e-mail me with your wants and we'll see what we can do.

 

All monies raised go to the 171 Appeal - about five grand (sterling) to date from us.

Thanks for reading this!
