Catalogue 83-December 2014

Welcome! Croeso!

Late again I am afraid. One day I will get a catalogue out on time!

Another mixed bag, hopefully with something for everyone.

I will be posting up to 22nd December, then again from 29th

December, please allow for delays over Christmas and New Year.

If you are on facebook, you can now follow me, just type in Nigel Bird Railway Books and click “like”, I issue regular updates, offers and general railway chit chat.

A big THANK YOU for your custom in 2014, which has been another tough year for trade.

Happy Christmas and a prosperous 2015 to you all.

Catalogue 84 should be issued in March 2015
