Info ? on Lima Products

[Andrew.PEI]

   Hi- I've been trying to research my Rolling Stock- Most Items I have the Manufactures Number for- But I seem to be hitting a Brick Wall as far as the (Very) Old Lima stuff is concerned.
YES I Know that most of this brand is out of scale......    LOL
AND NO I do not have all of these So stop Pointing and Laughing 
However I am Trying to get a List of the Stuff I have acquired over the Years.
I remember being able to get some items for about £1 second hand- That's how far back I go

Does anyone have the Manufacturers List for Lima/Wrenn Stuff? Early 3 digit and then 6 digit?
I have started a List - Help with the Errors and blanks would be appreciated
Most was found on Ebay ! Some "Borrowed" from N-Guage Resource

Why not buy a copy of Ramsay's & look them up ?

[Sprintex]

What on earth is Ramsay's?? 

If I put it into Google all I get is thousands of suggestions relating to an obnoxious foul-mouthed so-called chef 


Paul

[MikeDunn]

Ramsay's British Model Train Catalogue 

Think it's on 7th Edition now.

Edit @ just noticed the OP's in Canada ... oh well, I'm sure they'll sell a copy to the cousins 

[Sprintex]

Ah right . . . never heard of it 

Thanks for explaining though 


Paul

[MikeDunn]

No probs ... useful book (especially if you get it as a freebie on a mag sub  )

  I have Been all through this site, Brilliant work, but not able to give me the "Numbers".
However the Book Mike Dunn suggests (Ramsay's British Model Train Catalogue) I shall seek out.
Many Thanks
Andrew

Somewhat late to the party, but this page: http://www.ness-st.co.uk/N-gauge-catalogues.html has a PDF of the 1980 Lima catalogue (look towards the bottom of the page). This forum: http://lima-modeltrain-collectors.xobor.de/ might also be of interest.

Hi Andrew,

Try the following link. I think it's the best resource you will find.
