  1. I'm almost sure that @MOGUL recently posted about butchering some Dapol CPW's to make them look Irish.
  2. Sure I'll take two if they're dishing them out.
  3. Great price considering what some of them go for! If only it were 113!
  4. Browsing the Accurascale Project Status Page, and the Class 50's are showing as in-production, and expected this quarter... That's probably a little optimistic?
  5. I see that the Rustons are in transit and expected on Dacember 23rd 2024! Accurascale project updates page: https://www.accurascale.com/pages/projects
  6. Some amount of work in that! Adding an additional cross-member, or several diagonal cross-members, will add rigidity, and hold the sides where you want them.
  7. Excellent looking wagons, and the 10% bundle discount is brilliant! I guess the (oil) well for Irish models is still pretty deep...
  8. I see that Shapeways are coming back, in some form. https://www.shapeways.com/blog/shapeways-marketplace-update Hopefully, we'll see a return of the Irish O Gauge stuff - I wanted a 141 body before they went bust!
  9. You're all way off. It's an O Gauge 22' container flat.
  10. So plenty of time to get the 22000's paid off before the 071 bill is due.
  11. I beg to differ:
  12. Nice find, @Darren.d. They usually go around the €100 mark but I have also picked up a handful of UK variants over the past few months, all from eBay. I'm sure we'll see IRM run them one day - @BosKonay wouldn't have sold his IE ones otherwise!
  13. Well worth a drool. Premium Classixxs Scania on the wish list. The O Gauge stuff can easily be overlooked but it's fabulous up close and in person.
  14. Murphy Models 141 for €155: https://www.ebay.es/itm/235848703623
  15. Bit of 071 info from The Lawyer here: So early to mid 2026 would seem probable. And more freight grey 071's, yay!
  16. Would you hurry up and hit 70, please? I want my 22000!
  17. I'll take the whole batch! *Runs off to set up an eBay account to re-sell them through*
  18. Absolutely top notch advice from @derek, not just for modelling, but for so much other stuff in life. Set yourself arbitrary deadlines and you'll disappoint yourself repeatedly. Relax and enjoy the hobby in your own way, and in your own time.
  19. It's quite simple. 20% of £20 is £4, plus an additional 40% in the small print to cover that (in)famous £350M per week hole in NHS finances, so that's £12.
  20. Irish Railway Models NIR Coach Pack 2 in the blue and grey "Bumblebee" livery for €270 EURO: https://www.adverts.ie/models/irish-model-railway/35653002 Irish Railway Models A Class no. 048 in IR livery for €250 EURO: https://www.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/irish-railway-models-a-class-001-class-locomotive/35545817 Irish Railway Models Tara Mines wagons in 1980's / 1990's blue livery (looks like Pack C with 31003 and 31006?) for €65 EURO: https://www.adverts.ie/models/tara-mines-bogies-irish-railway-models/35512383
  21. In theory, yes, but I don't think they've bothered enforcing it before - wouldn't have looked good if people knew it was a "BrExit Benefit"... Royal Mail website says:
  22. Rails of Sheffield have had these three 141's languishing at £170 GBP for months now, not selling: https://railsofsheffield.com/products/pre-owned-irish-rail-class-181-ie-orange-192-diesel-locomotive https://railsofsheffield.com/products/pre-owned-irish-class-141-ie-orange-146-diesel-locomotive https://railsofsheffield.com/products/pre-owned-irish-rail-class-181-cie-black-b181-diesel-locomotive Rails don't remove the UK VAT on pre-owned items, so the price will be higher when buying from Ireland. Reference screenshot attached.
