More welsh highland stock, mainly goods, some 3ft gauge irish prototypes and the wickham trolley are some I know of.
Thanks

I'm surprised I.P. are discontinuing the FR range, I'd have thought it would be one of their best selling ranges...

After tea I had a quick doze on the sofa and I had this awful nightmare!
In it, I was looking at the forum and all the posts were "I know something you don't know and I'm not telling!" - it was so ridiculous that it was featured on Comic Relief :lol:

Anyhow, I woke up and came to have a look :shock:

Pathetic. ;)

Without causing an "I know this......." war but on sunday I asked him if he was carrying on with the bug boxes as I was buying 4 of them and he said yes, he is having a clear-out of stock as there is several £££'s worth on the shelf at the moment. He is getting on with alot of the P&J stuff and he is going to bring out the box cab at some point for much less than the £400odd that P&J used to charge. There wasnt a seacret handshake, wink but i was told only Field Marshal Haig, Field Marshal Haig's Wife, all of Field Marshal Haig's wife's friends, their families, their families servants, their families servants tennis partners and some chap I bumped into the mess the other day called Bernerd, know about it.....

I just dont want to betray confidence, he may want it kept secret (ish)
Ivan may not appreciate me blabbing on the forums.

Ivan wouldnt mind at all Im sure but why dont you invite him on here yourself if you are so close to him. Surely good for sales. I wonder if IP are struggling financially like others but its not here to comment on such matters.

I doubt he is struggling, there was a very large number mentioned when he told us how much stock he has currently got and I cant see him going out and buying P&J if he was finding times hard.

There used to be a list on the PPS website but I think it is only showing what stock they carry now.
