And that was the minimum size and weight. I ended up with a box of air, so found something else to fill up the space. Correos en Canarias don't price like Correos España. You buy the tarriff and make the most of the space and weight. I have a rake of the original IRM Container liners to sell, probably for €650 odd, don't care if anybody objects to the mark-up, but I have no way of getting them to a buyer, so they sit on top of my wardrobe, laughing at me.

A. That's the wrong product. The SKU and running numbers are IN MY ADVERT. B. The username and avatar should be a giveaway. Various members have even joked about it on here before. C. None of that needs to be clear in the advert. The asking price is the asking price. D. There is no defence. If somebody doesn't know what they are talking about, they should stop talking. E. Canaries ARE a special case - we'll see just how bad postage from here is when @Westcorkrailwayposts a photo. F. I'm the one taking the risk by undervaluing it while getting it up to Dublin, so that the buyer doesn't have that risk- all that risk for €20 that may not even be profit as I can't calculate what it cost me to receive initially. G. Just wait till you see how much it costs me to post an A Class up, again with me taking the risk by undervaluing it so that the buyer doesn't have that risk.

Truth is, I can't be 100% sure what the postage cost to me was at the time of purchase. I'm guessing €10 if I break down the cost of a larger parcel pro-rata, but can't prove that. And DHL raped me with exorbitant handling charges at one point, when IRM were stuck using them temporarily. Again, I can't be sure if this was one of those parcels. Something like €40 or €50 handling fees per parcel. Not per order, but per parcel. Maybe @Westcorkrailwaywould be so kind as to share a photo showing the postage price of the parcel that he received from me? Somewhere between half and a quarter of the size of this one...

OK, just for you two numpties, where maths obviously isn't your strong point: €115 for the Empty Flats from IRM - price still on the website so look it up... €35 postage from Las Canarias to Dublin... €10 customs and "handling fee" before An Post will release it - declared it as a low value gift to keep that amount down... €20 to me for investing the time, energy and money in making something that was impossible to obtain, suddenly be available, in perfect condition, for collection in Dublin... And, it's also possible that these were one of the parcels that DHL raped me for receiving back in the day, but I can't be sure so haven't factored it in. I'm too busy in work for this shit during the week. Maths is easy. If you want to buy them, well and good, if not, good for you. Lord, give me patience!

They were unloading it at an apartment complex undergoing refurbishment. Could have been fancy Irish interior decor stuff.

I suspect that you might sell a complete train for maybe €500 or €600, but not €900. Adverts.ie is not eBay, it doesn't have the reach or audience, and it's not a timed auction site so the red mist is missing.

What's his name? Carlos?

You weren't the only one to think that:

Wow, they've been reduced! Even more value for money!

Awesome news for the weekend! The way you have specified the year for each loco is very useful for me, at least, and probably a few others, as I have been lost with which UK livery ran when, until now. A question: My original Deltics are still in transit, so I'm ignorant as the the improvements. Are the tweaks made to the second generation aplicable to the first generation via spare parts, or are they in compatible? Sorry if it seems a dumb question but I haven't yet seen one in person, never mind handled one.

Murphy Models 071 Class no. 082 with LokSound decoder and two packs of IRM Ballast wagons for €750: https://touch.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/model-railways/29166896

@jhb171achill, this is your mission, should you choose to accept it.

The 29000's are now black and tan???

An outstandingly attractive livery, I must say, looks great with the green Bachmann coaches.

That sounds like a challenge within a challenge.

You're off my Christmas card list, so! Tinnelly truck on eBay, better price than usual: https://www.ebay.es/itm/134422134917 Bachmann CIE Mogul in plain black: https://www.ebay.es/itm/225372228677 Nearly sure that @jhb171achillsaid that this is the better of the two black liveries. Nice Lucey truck. Bit pricey, though: https://www.ebay.es/itm/394427741596 McCulla truck, good price: https://www.ebay.es/itm/334707888631

For weathering to within an inch of their lives?

Bargain six-pack of Caledonian Sleeper Mk5's for anybody interested! https://www.ebay.es/itm/175582872751

Some WEATHERED Mk2's!

I thought that maybe Hatton's had scraped the info from Paddy's website without bothering to speak with him. I had assumed they'd be doing the same with the 141's and 181's, and they are not up on Paddy's site, yet, which might explain that.

Is it just me, or are the new P42 chassis much tougher than the original runs? The original run seemed to have their weak spots, the brake wheels in particular were constantly falling off, but these new ones just feel more solid or something. Did you guys sneak some more work in behind our backs???

Hatton's posted these more or less as soon as Paddy made the announcement. As @BosKonay says, we'll hear it here when it's true! (Just like some two-tone green Dublin buses, ahem...) And as @Ironroad says, best thing to do is add them to your Hatton's wishlist. Hatton's Murphy Models list: https://www.hattons.co.uk/stocklist/1000501/0/murphy_models/mfrnest I think that it was the Cravens which were being considered, based on sufficient interest, and these are not listed on the Hatton's website. Also to note, quite strangely, is that the new run of 141's and 181's is not listed on Hatton's, even though Paddy had samples at the Raheney show.

Nice McCulla truck on eBay, not cheap but they're lovely models and very Irish: https://www.ebay.es/itm/394427715976 Likewise for this Tinnelly truck: https://www.ebay.es/itm/325507252714 These Mulgrew trucks are lovely: https://www.ebay.es/itm/394428617593 Couple of James Irlam trucks.

These are gorgeous, have one or two myself: https://www.ebay.es/itm/363331572006 https://www.ebay.es/itm/393176168021 https://www.ebay.es/itm/353689674174 https://www.ebay.es/itm/263613747108 IRM A Class no. 018 in ST livery, current bid €192 EURO: https://www.ebay.es/itm/304773876362 Looks like a Chris Dyer / Tony Mirolo re-spray of a Bachmann Class 170 into IE livery: https://www.ebay.es/itm/204211666103 Silver Fox A Class no. 023 in ST livery: https://www.ebay.es/itm/144904062265 Silver Fox C Class no. 104 in NIR blue, have 107 myself: https://www.ebay.es/itm/144904062267

All you need is a little Axel Foley hanging off the back of the last Bell and the new Brian Collins Garda set racing alongside the tracks.

Hands off, you!
