Thanks, Iarnrod since I don't live in Ireland nor have I seen a prototype van can you run through what the major difference will be between the two types, Thank you in advance.
Lynbarn
Main difference is one wagon variant (the one currently available from IRM) is fitted with brakes and a brake wheel and the more common variant has just a handbrake lever.

Thanks So just how many of these H vans got built?
Don't forget that this release is of the Vac Brake fitted versions which formed a small percentage (319) of H Vans built when compared to the more common (over 1300) unfitted versions. Would expect a larger run of the more common unfitted versions will follow after this run.

Thanks for the explanation Fran.
Seems less of an issue to me now when other Irish stock has the same buffer spacing e.g. 141's.
Still a bit confused as to why this decision as regards buffer beam spacing was taken for this particular range of wagons and not all of the other IRM wagons and locos released to date. I suspect that there may have been more discussion surrounding this if made known earlier when wagon plans were first made public.

Can someone from IRM please comment on the above post as regards the incorrect buffer spacing?
Extremely disappointing.
How do IRM plan to address this error?
