  1. as far as i am aware they are all accounted for already as preordered when announced last year
  2. remember that the other 3 olympians can also be got for those who may not be on the irish model buses pages the wedding airlink and ghost buses are also on sale just contact adrian lemon who is on this group
  3. a proper irish taxi would be interested possibly easy enough as just really need a roof sign and use a few of oxfords castings
  4. great news and means that you will look at more in the future hopefully
  5. with the way rapido has done the plastic buses could irm do the same for say the likes of a bombardier in plastic and release on different routes liveries to cover the development cost
  6. agree they obviously have a set number of each loco so it should be easy to start countdown at last 30 or so i was surprised that 125 was gone no warning so thats 1 loco i cant get from irm
  7. if theres to be newly tooled a lot of irish vehicles could appear as well as buses such as trucks ambulances and fire engines that are not available currently that would also have an appeal to uk markets such as a lot of the hanlon built ambulances
  8. will do my orders next week hopefully will still be in stock
  9. well done guys buses finally now to work out which 121s get replaced by these
  10. that is perfect especially if the preorder is 6 months to 9 months keeps us all happy
  11. a lot of people were giving out about sudden releases i must admit i did too but i suppose we had nearly 2 years warning on the 42 project with deliveries spread over the last year which was handier. the a class we have been able to pre purchase for the last year plus now. when you look the 121s have only been up a few months to buy and already 3 are sold out. Whatever IRM bring out new in the future if its a loco 6 months minimum from launch to availability is probably best to allow people pay for them over the 6 months. small items that cost under 20 are easy enough for instant notice. the same with freight and passenger sets we need a couple of months advance payment time . This also allows IRM to have capital in advance .The other option would be a return of the original top up gift card especially as you can only use 1 gift card per order and most people wouldnt have a 300 plus euro gift card off a freight set but may have 3 100 euro ones.no matter what IRM do I will always support them but anything they can do to increase sales by making them easier the better.
  12. spoils arrived safely here looking forward to arrival of weedsprayers this week
  13. oh dear there goes this years budget now better sell the wife
  14. we havnt had any news in a while but im wondering how long before we see the full colour built samples appearing as must be in production soon. i know we seen preproduction painted samples but nothing since of final versions
  15. there is another irish diecast coming out this year which is the dublin bus enviro400mmc hybrid bus it will be available from brian collins
  16. derek puts them up on the irish model buses facebook page plus various other model bus pages they usually sell out on the day of announcement as they are very limited runs usually 50 to 150 of each destination is the maximum https://www.facebook.com/groups/irishmodelbuses
  17. water could be a clue to steam which i am hoping it is
  18. we already have the irish bus equivalent of irm its derek farrelly and his excellent bus range for irm to beat his quality would be something but then again a plastic moulded bus could be possible look at rapido trains
  19. not really if its a manual machine in its case those things were big and heavy
  20. maybe contact the lads in downpatrick they did have one trailer unit before it was destroyed and may have drawings
