  1. Dish out the Hardship Minister but cannie take it!!! Ah Starting from Cork! Its not in the Blurb at the start! An overnight cost involved in Dublin kills it for me TBH.
  2. Interesting, Was taking to a Revenue officer that looks after the imports of HVO and mentioned that the Chinese HVO imports are being scrutinised by the EU.....Because it contains so not so special ingredients. Wonder is the IR stuff from China. 300 Trees?, Surely that should be Saplings, These won't properly offset for many a year but delighted some are planted rather than them being continually cut down all over the countryside.
  3. There gold in them lofts......
  4. Hope u get sorted Fran. , still smashing coaches though. Bit of a headache as they are wired too, is it a soldered join to the pick ups?
  5. Grill and Genny have wider bogies. Not a deal breaker visually from a foot r two away.
  6. just sent them to the Sales Email there now. Some pics, would it be too tight in the narrower ones?
  7. I checked and you are right, The bogies are Narrower on the 'BR' stock and wider driving trailer. Also checked the Grill and Genny and they have the wider bogies. I wont be doing it but thought these were all convertible to 21mm
  8. Kinda needs a little update!!
  9. It really Needs a You Tube Channel!
  10. The P is a beautiful loco, Run lovely too, When 1st released I purchased Bluebell (could not resist!) and a black BR LC version. Is there any plans to revise the tool such as firebox flicker in the future? Hopefully now with this SR loco we will get some company for it in the not too distant future.
  11. My last orders came through rails and with An post, Vat to paid and €3.50 custom fee.
  12. My RPSI and the NIR blues arrived today and whisked out of sight... Had a quick peek before she arrived home and I love the Etch End plate in the RPSI pack. Bit of reading too included. Both Look amazing, Bag of bits like a mini kit and the Presentation is 1st Class. Can wait to see them running with the Lights etc. No doubt these Vids will spring up shortly on utube
  13. Boxes Arrived and the Other half was out so there is a god., Kids off school however so could be grassed up. One box was well heavy!! Looking forward to a peek at lunchtime. thanks IRM
  14. I am so dead....The amount of stuff in the door the past week was bad now these........aaargh!!
  15. Shame that,, Would be a great prospect to get people in Waterford on it rather than going all the way out to Kilmeadon. I thought the tracks were nearly all the way into the old south terminus looking at the OSI map they are? Steam is exciting for sure but I hope that don't change the loco too much from what it is now.
  16. Mmm Wonder will they enclose the Cab. Would they of not been better of building a new one rather than a museum piece. I hope this does not go wrong and end up in the shed for years. I quite a boring run tbh. Suits a casual vsitor. It needs to go into Waterford to make it anyway good. Been on it twice. was enough.
  17. Hope the engine gets looked after and not a one year wonder. Could tempt a lot of extra helpers now to get hands on.
  18. Good news then.
  19. Named after the very place they are made from..
  20. Dunno where the spec came from but certainly not sprung buffers one the ones I received this Morning. Doubtful they are metal too. Have not run any but the Tension lock springs seem much more robust and less sloppy so fingers crossed they run a lot better. Used the Cash back on these too, Took a right ol chunk out of the total! Sweet. Better than the Lima ones though and pretty happy with them too. True Should of plummed for the IRM ones myself, Better overall given the price.
  21. €229 price for those. Glad I got them for <120 back in the day. The ones going on FB recently for around 200 sponds so were are Bargain. Did I read somewhere that there was there one Loco in the new batch that had IR and IE Logos on it, The pictures listed are not the pics of the actual locos.
  22. Brace call for sure and welcome given the debates on various forums. So the lights issue on the A classes could be fixed by IRM?, squeaky bogies?
  23. Bit of a Drought from the last release. Looking at my Stock list of Irish Coaches, I am getting to the point of saturation really!! I got rid of the Lima Galways and bought a rake of those as I do like the livery!
