Some other bits and bobs for sale.

 

 

The 3:10 to Claremorris DVD (150 mins) NEW.

In a time of hardship and uncertainty, a community is denied a railway by the powers that be, tired with the bureaucracy and corruption the community turns to seven mercenaries to get the job done using their own methods….but as Sean, their reluctant leader with a dark past,will discover there are vested interests in keeping the Sligo – Claremorris line closed; the Seven will face danger and Peril at every turn, as they attempt to build the railway in time for the 3:10 to Claremorris….

 

Suffice to say you will never have seen anything like it! This is a mint, unplayed DVD, I bought two copies from the Director and I'm letting one go for €10 - a 50% saving and you won't find this DVD in the shops or online.

 

 

More here: http://laighnefilms.com/films/the-3-10-to-claremorris/

 

€10 includes FREE p+p on island of Ireland.

How to build a Train - Edwardian (?) kit (complete)
