OK lads Identification help required.

I just bought 2 Old Atropos Schull & Skibbereen Open Wagon kits, 3 Old Atropos Schull & Skibbereen Open Cattle Wagon, An old SixteenMills West Clare Horsebox kit 

and this

Coach

Coach 2

So any ideas or is it just someone's creation?

I;ll get the Superglue out while you have a think.

That’s an original 1887 Cavan & Leitrim coach, converted to a brake third by CIE. 

Thanks, I wondered if it was a true model as it was with the specific kits. Seller has posted more kits on his site and I am now watching with more interest. The garden railway may need to be expanded.

Well, it is and it isn't - if you look at the right hand end of it in that pic, the roof just ends, without enclosing the balcony (as at the other end). That would have to be rectified, but I see that the bits for the balcony railings appear to be included. I must look at what else there is there out of interest. On a more minor detail, and easily fixable, what appears to be a white line above the windows should be pale green, as on other CIE-liveried coaches. For garden railway scale, it's a nice model indeed - I'd be tempted if I had a garden railway.

 

Who's the seller?
