RedCapBooks Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 I can't see how to edit the above post. Just to note, however, that the Bord na Móna locos book is now sale agreed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broithe Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I can't see how to edit the above post. Us mere mortals can't edit after a while - 24 hours, I think - but, people will cope, it's clear enough from the above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedCapBooks Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Good stuff Broithe; thanks for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedCapBooks Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Ok - so the following are sale agreed: * Bord na Mona * CIE and NI railway system * Johnson's Railway atlas. Only Butt's Directory remains at the moment. It's expensive, but as noted in the initial post, this is the cheapest price that is available online; I would be interested to see if anybody could identify a good copy anywhere else at even near to this price.
