Wanna start the bidding so?

Same, although I went for the purple one!

Is that a ContainerShips reefer? I see those down here!

They can be bought for free? Yay! Received my "back in stock" notifications for two of the Class 55's this evening! Have you thought about adding a "protoype age" sort option? Or failing that, even adding the dates that the loco carried the particular livery to it's description? I know that the Porterbrook Purple one only ran from something like 1999 until 2003, but it looked too cool to miss out.

What are the Dream Box and Power Box containers? Are they owned by a bigger company and branded that way for a reason? Do / did they run in Ireland?

In fairness, back in March, IRM said two powered announcements this year, then in the summer they said that global logistics were causing delays - but we were well warned!

Amazing work. How the Hell is that possible?

OK, will contact bank manager and cardiologist mañana...

Seriously??? That'd be something else. Might finally see a black and orange 071 / 111... Only catching up on this thread, now. One word sums everything up: Wow! Fair play to everybody involved, what you are doing is just incredible.

Good! Hands off the Irish market!

Important question: What Stobart project are you working on in the background?

For anybody interested, these are lovely little brake vans, exquisite detail:

No bids on the Sulzer but there is one bid on A3R, at almost €300 plus costs! Both auctions about to end.

The space looks great! I hope to have a long run down one side of the garage, some day!

May be an idea for a mod to merge this thread with the "official" Deltic thread, getting confusing having two of them.

Sold for €250 plus BrExit tax plus shipping.

Can't speak for all modellers, only for myself, and a handful who I imagine are in the same boat... Why would you want Bachmann or anybody dabbling in the Irish market right now? The IRM lads have said time and again that their UK side is what keeps their Irish side afloat. Wouldn't be worth their while to continue without the UK side. If another manufacturer, Bachmann for example, were to cut a slice of that already-anorexic pie, we may end up saying goodbye to Irish RTR models altogether. Is anybody really short-sighted enough to want one or two Bachmann Irish releases, more than likely nowhere near as accurate as IRM stuff, and then have nothing at all after that because everybody throws the towel in? Bachmann Class 37 timing is very suspicious, I do concur. If it was an announcement, not a physical in-stock release, it would be grand, but they've obviously been working at it a while if they have the models on the shelves already. The only "bad" thing for Irish modellers at the moment is the affect that IRM are having on their bank balances! We've never had it so good. Can't be said enough times.

Like the 29000's?

I think that looks lovely in the CIE green - would love to see a whole rake of them like that.

Judge Mark Hamill? Seriously? Was the Force with him? Only if you can see Robocop skulking around, though.
