Some screw links to attach to the fronts of the locos.

The couplers seem to be out of stock on the IRM website for quite a while, but in stock on the Accurascale website. Will they be coming back to the IRM website?

Very sad. RIP. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-61684048

Pretty sure that was a bit cheeky of Marks a year or two ago. They listed several of the Irish steam locos as a warehouse find, but had less than they listed. I "bought" a few only to find out a day or two later that they didn't exist. Try a sniper, Sean. I have one added to Firefox. Snipe my max and walk away. Very grateful to told about snipers by @murphaph

What about non-sound functions like coasting and thrashing it when heavily loaded? Seriously, great looking little yokes, have to have one or two!

There's a seperate classified ad with a few photos, and more info, but yep, posting them here, too, would defo help. Sorry to hear about your Dad, Eddie.

Out with the blowtorch to model that one!

And in an alternate universe:

Watching videos of the Inchicore open day... Was that your Grand Hibernian that made a cameo on the layout?

And those gangsters swapping reg plates around!

@Robhit the nail on the head with Hueston North for road surfacing. Looks so so perfect.

You know what he scraped it off? The little makeshift canopy over the loading bay. Two or three brackets with a bit of galvanised aluminium thrown on top, so that they can unload the trucks in the rain. Must have been lashing one day and he ripped the size along one of those three brackets. Gobshite.

Looks lovely in black! I only managed to get it in red, which is a little bright.

Frikkin' Dana's everywhere. Never noticed a black frame on one before. And what's the yellow coach in the background? Doesn't exactly look like the weedspray coach.

Outstanding job on the Ford's! You can see where some clown has scraped the side of the left hand one off something and it's rusted away.

Received this in the post a few weeks ago. Only getting around to admiring it today.

My thoughts exactly. €350 with a few coaches wouldn't be terrible. I see that somebody has already offered €300 for it. Insane. And, I say that as somebody with no common sense and no impulse control.

Absolute bargain! https://www.adverts.ie/models/murphy-models-078-class-071-ir-or-blk/26974585

Tinnelly tipper says 1/43 but looks smaller (nice mirror selfie, too) : https://www.ebay.es/itm/363848722663 EuroLines Van Hool has an Irish look to it: https://www.ebay.es/itm/363845559711

That's a lovely looking Hyster thing!

That was nail-biting. Now do it with an A Class!

What was the base model for the black CIE trucks with white cab roofs?
