Happy Christmas all and best wishes for the New Year,  looking forward to the new releases

Happy Christmas all and best wishes for the New Year and more New models

A fine collection of Irish loco's, various era of the A class, like the grey 71, and the 201 all livery a favourite of mine 

That's some freight yard fantastic, great collection of freight wagons and 007 glad I bought same, 

Like the expanded range, glad to see the Nissan Qashqai added to the range 

Superb now look like the real worn ballast vans

Seriously? The 201 is a very high-spec and a wonderful runner. I'd love to hear a full list of these "obvious inaccuracies".

The 201 is the only MM loco that I don't have more than one of, and I always regretted it!

Next year you will have the option to add more 201 

Speaking of 201, just saw 215 departing Kent with the 11.25 Dublin service can't beat a loco hauled service

The Lima 201 was a good start for Irish railway models and Murphy Models 201 brought it to the next level looking forward to the new model 201 could not fault Murphy Models 201,  now has anyone heard any rumours on when they will arrive maybe I know a man Thanks

Any update on the new release from Murphy Models of 201 loco and Mk3 coaches

That A Class is something else!

Like the Driver figure and superb weathering 

Did not plan on buying an A Class however after all the great reviews I bought one this morning, fabulous model detail, weight, superb slow speed runner and the booklet with history of the A,  the standard for loco's has moved to another level, well done IRM

Its like a loco from a Bond movie, militaristic and menacing looking.

Sorry the long 201 'Peat Briquette' doesn't blow my skirt up in any livery. If the ICR yoyo's takeover the Cork and Belfast routes retiring the 201s to freight, they may well end up in this smart freight grey livery.

Long may the 201 loco haul passenger services, IE have begun looking at new railcar units for the Enterprise service beginning 2027/2028,  hopefully no rush to change the 201 services to Cork for another 15 years or so

there is already a reason to re-run the 121s. What a fantastic looking livery on the locomotive 

 

this has to go as one of the most obscure but fantastic livery combos in Irish rail history

Superb,  and it's not April 1st 

Not on the Mk4 sets between Cork and Dublin 

Fantastic the A class is perfect for the layout

The Class 201 are an impressive loco in size but bland compared to the 71/ 121/ 141 / 181 but in time they will be the last diesel loco on IE fleet and a favourite, I always like seeing them in Kent Station

Small announcement my backside!

For the next locos, I'm going with:

1. steam loco

2. 141 / 181 / 071

3. C Class

For the "powered" one, it's obviously a 22000, but if the worst comes to the worst, we'll settle for a 2600...

Any update on those MM 201's? It's gone awfully quiet on that front.

And the Mk 4 set

Hi Darius welcome to the forum,  an excellent CAF model

A3R as preserved?

22000 ICR's?

B&I Ferries?

RoadLiner Trucks?

A partridge in a pear tree?

 

Or is it just my order spread out over those few pallets?

You forgot the MK4 set

Bob229, thanks for the reply, I rang Marks Models earlier today and they said they were no longer taking on repairs, they are looking to out source them.

Alan, thanks for the update, disappointing there going to outsource repairs
