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

Couple of Eric Vick European Haulage trucks on eBay: https://www.ebay.es/itm/403351242671 https://www.ebay.es/itm/304498948929 https://www.ebay.es/itm/155011988699 And a few Barline Ireland / UK / Europe trucks, but they're a bit more expensive: https://www.ebay.es/itm/374055906976 https://www.ebay.es/itm/224996190199 https://www.ebay.es/itm/363810281597 Iggy Madden Galway truck, too: https://www.ebay.es/itm/255433635242 As @murphaph pointed out to me, the Iggy Madden trailer has a very nineties look to it, even if the cab doesn't. 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?

Wow, outstanding contribution from the IRM lads, as usual. So, when are the Mk4 models coming out?

It's kind of disgusting at those prices. Three new A's or a used 071... And that's assuming that there's no red mist.

IRM Ferts available! https://www.ebay.es/itm/224999556145 https://www.ebay.es/itm/224999560739 https://www.ebay.es/itm/224999566932 Seller's username sounds familiar, like a former poster here. And a few 071's and a 201 at absolute bargain prices... https://www.ebay.es/itm/265705653166 https://www.ebay.es/itm/265705117127 https://www.ebay.es/itm/224995307656

Why do you always bitch and moan about the railway groups? There was a nice way of putting that. Here, let me help you: "Bad news, everybody. I've heard from X (with a source hyperlinked) that 112 is having X issues, so anybody hoping to see her in action on the tour will be diappointed. However, to compensate, there'll be an 071 double header, numbers X and X! How awesome!"

Shouldn't that be Alphabet City?

I was being fair! That's why I never mentioned the upside-down legacy.

Excellent! And you even took a vertical video to keep the Millenials happy!

A few items that may be of interest... The IRM Spoils have been for sale for months and months, so the seller may be willing to accept offers: https://www.ebay.es/itm/354069986848 Wiggy at the Weekend (Is that Neil of WheelTappers?) offloading IRM Tara Mines Pack A, and has been selling off loads of Irish stuff lately: https://www.ebay.es/itm/134120875989

This set have been on eBay for months. I'm sure you could contact the seller and make an offer: https://www.ebay.es/itm/354069986848 Renumbering or hiding the numbers using weathering would solve any duplicate numbering issues.

The Tiny City vehicles are lovely! I have a few of them and can't fault them. Also, is that a Hongwell / Cararama Porsche in the corner?

What are the odds on seeing Ashburton Grove populated with IRM N Gauge stock in ten years?

Looks like a white Christmas!!!
