It's with great sadness that we hear of the passing of the legend Paddy Murphy of the infamous Murphy Models 😥
He will be sorely missed throughout the model railway fraternity. I'll miss his chats of his motorcycle adventures across Europe and his vast knowledge of Dublin.
Rest in peace my good friend 💔
