  1. Thanks for the update Guys,I know it's frustrating with the ICRs,but apon seeing the 6 piece set at the show yesterday,God very impressive and well worth waiting for.I delighted that the C class were announced, the samples look fab.
  2. Thanks to Eoin Murray for supplying me with his own castings of C class bogie side frames.Here are a few photos of C209.
  3. Nice to see you back Des.
  4. I used the Hornby railroad Deltic cut and shut for my SSM machine.The chassis runs very well even at slow speeds.The SSM kit is not for the faint hearted, and as mentioned, trying to put glazing in the cab windows would drive you soft.
  5. I got my Hunslet today,all i can say is that I am blown away by it,the sound,the detail, it's performance over points is fantastic.Fair play IRM/accurascale. 20260615_202514.mp4
  6. No my Silver Fox van at the back is squeeking.
  7. Got mine today,they are superb. Well done IRM. 20260612_171125.mp4

  9. 082 and 071 in the black and silver livery would be suitable but a hell of a lot harder to get as they sold out very quick.i got 077 from Mark's for 140euro at one of the shows.
  10. I didn't say that,It wouldn't suit as a donor for a respray into battleship gray livery because of the smaller marker lights.
  11. 078 only had the small marker lights,085 and 077 were the only orange IE locos with larger marker lights.
  12. I reckon 077 is popular because it is the only version that is not weathered in the IE livery as 085 was factory weathered.If someone was wanting to do a respray of one of the gray livery 071s,077 is the donor.
  13. I was inspired to number this C class 209 because of a few photos of it on the North Kerry line hauling the Weed Killer train.209 itself was looked at by the ITG for preservation at one stage.
