good on you for stocking these. Have just pre-ordered and cancelled from Hattons. Will continue to support IRM in preference where I can given all the great work they've done for the Irish scene in the last couple of years.

I commend you for doing this and they look really nice and I honestly hope it works out!!

Personally they're not a key interest area for me and being outside that combined with the price (which I totally understand for a limited run of very high quality product) I'm afraid I couldn't justify the spend given there are so many other up coming items I have a more direct interest in. Maybe if the interest is there for larger runs and the pricing comes down somewhat I could go for the CIE 10T opens as they are of minor interest.

Best of luck with this project, done the survey to try and reflect how I feel above, saying I would have a degree of interest in the 10t, hopefully it helps a bit at least.

In reality though mayner you need to be unlucky to get pinged for GST in NZ. None of my railway purchases have ever been stopped by customs to add the tax, and most were well over the $400 Mark. The declaration on the box usually gives a lower value regardless of what store has supplied it. It's easy to get around.

Toughened:

 

The first photo may be making a liar out of me, as the loco has the original windows while fitted with CAWS, although the date listed in the caption is 1982, in which case CAWS didnt go ‘live’ for another two years (it’s not carrying the ‘S’ suffix to indicate CAWS is fitted, however, despite the antennae being fitted). Maybe 025 was fitted with a flux capacitor...

how exactly does a loco end up looking like that? is it just the black peeling off?

Have you changed the numbers for the IR Dayglo locos?  I have them listed as 051 and 024.

looks like a mis type, the link still has 51 in it.

EDIT: The url has 51 but everything else is 54

The glass isn't smashed and it doesn't smell of piss?

if you know the name f the ship bang it in here and it will tell you where it is

that's the old Killiney and Ballybrack station, right. Not the same as the current one. Down on the corner on Seaview Rd rather than current location?

Any pics?

Too good an opportunity to miss even if it might set the CC on fire!

I'm certainly not as much as fan of these as some on here, never really saw them in real life, but knowing how good the quality is going to be based on everything so far it's a no brainer to pick up a couple for misc uses around the layout.

Once again well done to all at IRM!

what the photo unpixelated then?

Is there a height difference in the BI containers in this picture or is my imagination playing tricks on me?

looks like the third wagon back has a tarp or something over part of it... as maybe the 8th back?

The good news is that we have finally secured a way for them out of China after much searching around, phone calls, emails and annoyance of several logistics managers. The not so good news is that there was no space available by air, and instead they are travelling by sea.  This means that they will now arrive in approx six weeks time. 

 

Should have put it on the train

You should really announce something  new and fantastic as compensation for the delay

Available for pre order on Hattons now

These are newly produced models and the usual 512 of each has not been produced

I have put some pics on the other thread to show a couple of pics of the old and new coaches

And please don't ask me any stupid questions, I only took the pics!

So how many of each then, do you know?

are these unique to Marks or will they become more widely available?

Sorry team, I won't be able to help with this one. Need the funds for more personally desirable items like the ferts etc.

Excellent guide, much appreciated!

it's on my very long list of jobs to start at some undefined future point...

looks good. one fault I've noted is if I click into my order history the individual orders only come up with prices, not details of what was actually ordered. There seems to be a broken image link or similar on the order page.
