  1. Another care package arrived last night.
  2. I’ll probably leave things as they are, to avoid unnecessary complications. From a budgeting perspective, and being heavily involved in charity work, I understand the importance of regular income such as monthly donations. The ITG should re-think their membership benefits, as there is currently a disincentive to donate monthly, and more than the yearly membership fee. Either automatic membership once somebody donates the required amount, or expanding membership benefits to those donating. I mean this as constructive criticism, nothing more.
  3. Wait, so membership is cheaper than donating, and they get the magazine and I don’t? I had assumed that membership was more.
  4. I’m sticking with the 371 Class for the 69ified 071’s and the 301 Class for the tuned 201’s.
  5. I should really cancel my donation and become a member instead, so!
  6. Sounds like a special offer at Tesco!
  7. How does one subscribe to The Irish Mail? I have a recurring monthly donation of €10 to the ITG, but I don’t remember any options for subscribing to the magazine at the time I started donating.
  8. Oopsie! https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/18656-new-freight-wagons-to-come
  9. The 301’s, I like the ring of that!
  10. Have spammed the forum with this video of John’s wagons before, but it’s relevant again here.
  11. Stadler is who I was thinking of:
  12. 071’s are what, fifty years old? 201’s thirty years old. That’s impressive, but their time is probably running out. Think there’s a Spanish (go sunny Spain, Hell yeah!!!) company offering off-the-shelf-ish locos, so no need to buy from the US any more.
  13. Likewise, picked up a few of John’s RTR brake vans / guard’s vans a few years ago, in anticipation of having stock to run with them. Fabulous vans, and with more loose-coupled stock on layouts lately, I can see them being in demand.
  14. Fabulous news for rail transport in Ireland, and for fans of loco-hauled stock! Basically, they can carry more weight, and do so a lot faster, and the lead time is pretty short. Now, about loco power to haul them…
  15. Love the 59’s! Have missed out on the last few Ashburton Grove updates as the posts get buried so quickly under the avalanche, and am only catching up, now. The fleet of BR blue locos are just lovely!
  16. What EVER you do, don't blame it on the boogie...
  17. What if they’re British frames?
  18. Shocking when you lay it out like that!
  19. The Presflo’s are now available from Rails of Sheffield, HERE. Handy if you want to mix and match with something else.
  20. I guess it depends on the decoder(s) used and how much work went into it. @murphaph wired decoders into one of these sets a few years ago.
  21. Rose tinted glasses! I’m sure we could dig through most announcements, the blue Tara Mines wagons spring to mind for some reason, and find some less overjoyed than others:
  22. Anybody have contact info or news of B1Lancer / Valve Design of Shapeways fame?
  23. Can find Amazon without a link? Or can find one specific Amazon product among thousands, without a link. Both are very very different things. Wait, you wouldn’t happen to be trying to belittle me to hide your actions, would you? Classic misdirection, Archer. Would you mind highlighting that “literal” quote on it being Chinese, please?
  24. Bachmann IE livery Class 158 / Class 2700, DCC fitted, for €260: https://www.ebay.es/itm/226731608210
  25. Started yesterday afternoon, finished tomorrow afternoon, time to invoke @Broithe’s law:
