i assume now that production has started that you have final numbers of each loco and you could technically put up the remaining numbers available after preorders on each loco on the site which may help for people to know which locos to buy before they are gone

all of them I presume now that production has started we might see some really interesting in build pictures to wet our appetites for them

Just thinking Seen as IRM have proved and excelled themselves in the hobby so far with their range of Irish Railways would they do the same for road based vehicles. Rapido trains have proved how they can create a plastic bus similar to Herpa , Wiking and Busch but far better and allowing multiple liveries and registration route choices. Do we think that IRM could do something similar and do an iconic Irish bus in this way or even other vehicles like trucks vans or cars that only operated here. on the other hand would love a LUAS tram

Looking at what IRM has said and others have said steam may be a difficult one for sales . However if a steam loco was done it needs to be a well known seen one as said before no 4 gives options for the UK version so may help that one push ahead. Personally i would love to see 461 or 85 . In relation to numbers I am not sure how it works out with economics for irm but im certain people would pay extra for a proper built Irish loco the OO works U classes and J15 classes showed that . I purchased 2 J15 locos at 295 pounds sterling each so would not have a qualm about paying the same for a proper rtr IRM loco and I am certain theres others would do similar . can a more limited run be done for a slightly higher price than current diesel locos

yes seen it fairly pricey for one

wow with accruscale announcing a steam engine today dont think anyone seen it coming i wonder will we see a similar announcement here later this year. Could you imagine an irish steam loco done by IRM and the good thing is there are a few in preservation that can be scanned easily

no this lad didnt use mir as far as i know but sold ready built units

thanks fran i have a lot of oxford stuff already here but its great to have an additonal dealer

theres a lot of other irish models on the oxford site including various buses coaches and aircraft will you be stocking them too

anyone remember who used to build and sell 450 and 80 class trains in the 90s i know he had issues with a garage flood years ago but have long lost his details

just wondering has anyone else noticed that oxford diecast irish models are now in the vehicle section on the website even though all listed as out of stock. is this a new venture for irm

id say if irm are going to do a carraige its going to be the detrich for livery choices followed maybe by the park royal. i would love a dmu or emu as to date no company has done a rtr version most likely loco would be the c class to complememnt the a class an nir jeep would be something interesting to test the steam water id say pleanty of buses as well

might help irm then as there registered for vat in both ireland and the uk for selling irm to uk and accruscale to ireland

nollaig shona everyone

i would assume that even though its 7 announcements that they wont all appear in stock before the a class
