leslie10646 Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Just opened the boxes! First, a near repeat: 1681N, ex GNR Bagged Cement van in grey with two tone "Broken Wheel". and now for something complete;y different, 1069N, the same type of wagon but as they ran late in their lives. First the original: and now the model. Plenty of opportunity for the weathering experts here! 12 2 1 Quote

Thanks, George, making work for me. Easier to get a pal to pick one up for you in Bangor and hand it over when you next see each other! 24 minutes ago, DB JOE said: Like to get my hands on two of each if there is any left after Bangor Same applies, Joe! There WILL be plenty left, for Bangor is the wrong end of the country to sell CIE wagons (?). Quote
enniscorthyman Posted March 4 Posted March 4 I hope to get to Bangor and certainly will be tempted by these. 1 1 Quote

But I don't have any pals going to Bangor. I don't even know what a Bangor isIf you could do postage after the show Leslie, I would definitely be interested. Will the price be something similar to the bagged cement wagons? 1 Quote

leslie10646 Posted March 4 Author Posted March 4 (edited) Thanks, Derek. Bangor is the N Down MRC's exhibition on 23/24 March. The grey job will be £18, the Brown 'un £17, or £34 the pair! Postage to RoI will have to be a little extra. PM me with an address and we'll see what I might do. If you're in UK, you can have them earlier! Edited March 4 by leslie10646 2 1 Quote

Wow what an offer- 17 for one or 34 for the pair You should have my address from our previous exchanges, but I will gladly send it to you again. Derek 1 Quote
leslie10646 Posted March 4 Author Posted March 4 Yes Mr B from Limerick or thereabouts - you're lucky - there were only three Dereks in my database: one very regrettably deceased, one is an eminent member of the N Down MRC so you must be yon ither yin. I'll send you a suitably inflated bill. Thanks Leslie 2 Quote

There WILL be plenty left, for Bangor is the wrong end of the country to sell CIE wagons (?). Just a though!! Doubt anyone from Cork will be going, I used to drive to Connolly and then train up, enjoyable day but its too expensive now and tiring. Bit of a killer adding the postage, Plus Vat plus Customs clearance fee put me off ordering from the UK now, Brings it to around €52.00. Fingers crossed you might do any run for the Oct show. Got the previous ones there and very nice they are. Edited March 5 by Georgeconna 3 Quote
leslie10646 Posted March 5 Author Posted March 5 If I survive to see October, I'm sure that I can help you out, but I hope to make a decent dent in the stock with Bangor attendees! Quote

Doubt anyone from Cork will be going, I used to drive to Connolly and then train up, enjoyable day but its too expensive now and tiring. I have managed to limit myself to one pilgrimidge to Northern Ireland per year so far…. starting the day at 5AM and ending it at 12AM just for a few hours in d’North is an expensive and mentally draining excercise….and before you ask some of work the weekeends….so hotel is off the cards too, unless it’s in Dublin and that’s 1 Quote

leslie10646 Posted March 6 Author Posted March 6 I've decided to double the price of these - they're TOO cheap ...... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266704807557?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m43.l1120&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=ba64198dfad24f039629ddd108086cb6&bu=43025934942&ut=RU&osub=-1~1&crd=20240306045845&segname=11021 2 1 Quote

leslie10646 Posted April 6 Author Posted April 6 WEBSITE UPDATED (AT LAST!) No, my ability to update using Wordpress, is no better, but I have managed to to list (with photos) all my present offerings. See: https://provincialwagons.com READY TO RUN: In particular, can I mention that I have a very few RTR Open wagons built from my GNR Open wagon kit, a couple of UTA Brown vans and painted and decorated examples of all six bakery containers. Photos of the actual wagons are dotted about on the website. The latest CIE vans are, of course, still available. Have a look, please. 8 Quote
