Past-Avenue Posted Friday at 06:57 Posted Friday at 06:57 (edited) NEW WAGON ANNOUNCEMENT I'll be attending the show with a good stock of everything that I'm printing. I'll also have a sample of a completely new and highly detailed wagon on display over the weekend. I also will have some O and N Guage brake van's for sale. Please feel free to guess what the new wagon is and the first one to get it right might get a little surprise. Looking forward to seeing you there what promises to be a great show. Enda Ckprints.ie Edited Friday at 09:06 by Past-Avenue 10
Killian Keane Posted Friday at 16:39 Posted Friday at 16:39 Ill try and make it tomorrow, might bring the odd print with me
Merlin 85 Posted Friday at 17:41 Posted Friday at 17:41 Hi everyone, just wondering does anybody know when the map for the show will be published please? Regards, Merlin 85 1
Newtoncork Posted Friday at 18:26 Posted Friday at 18:26 Getting the 07.00 from Cork tomorrow. Booked the quiet carriage, next to loco, hoping it's not quiet. Herself heading as well. More to keep me in check. Really looking forward to it! 2 1
LNERW1 Posted Friday at 18:52 Posted Friday at 18:52 (edited) A quick reminder for all travelling from afar that the Marathon on Sunday will put huge pressure on the LUAS, centering on Abbey Street and O'Connell-GPO, so if you can travel via bus or on a different day, consider doing so. The DART and InterCity services including the Enterprise will also not be running between Drogheda and Connolly for the entire bank holiday weekend. Safe travel everyone. Edited Friday at 18:52 by LNERW1 1
DoctorPan Posted Friday at 19:27 Posted Friday at 19:27 Have the car fuelled and ready for tomorrow. Always a highlight of the year to see the exhibits, deals and friends. 4

Bob229 Posted Friday at 20:39 Posted Friday at 20:39 Will be driving up on Sunday, looking forward to the show 2
leslie10646 Posted Friday at 21:26 Posted Friday at 21:26 As well as my residual kits, this may be my last "Dublin" as a trader: I shall be selling some pretty rare Irish books and booklets on behalf of the IRRS - at sensible prices. Also recent UK published Irish railway books including some Lightmoor Press books not normally seen here. I'm just inside the door of "Platform 5". At least call by and say hallo! 9 1
