    Very Canarian looking skylines in the last few photos... And that grey unit reminds me of the old orange-ish TGV's from the early nineties!

    Awesome!!!!!!! Just so you know, the empty flats don't show up under the Container Liner heading, but do show under the general wagon collections heading. Product link: https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/wagons/products/cie-ir-42-flat-triple-unloaded-flat-b

    Are those pocket wagons ever going to be put to use again?
  4. DJ Dangerous
    You will be, knowing you.
  5. DJ Dangerous
    I stand corrected!

    You are speculating. Heljan announced CAD in June. Peco were already in production in June. Hornby announced the launch months later. No CAD, no samples, nothing. If Hornby had been planning this in advance, why was there no mention in their 2022 range? Or any mention at all before now? It stinks, that's why. I'm not saying that Hornby were not working on this the past five years, as you claim, just that there is no evidence nor indicators of the same. We can only judge based on what we know.
  7. DJ Dangerous
    Agreed. Market killer for a quick buck. Hornby had their CAD done months before the June announcements by Heljan and Peco?
  8. DJ Dangerous
    Definitely possible, although it sounds like Heljan, Peco and Gaugemaster were planning the launch for quite a while, and probably wouldn't have invested in it if they didn't feel that it would not just survive, but thrive. Hornby's bulldozing is unfortunate and probably unforeseen by the others.
  9. DJ Dangerous
    I denounce your announcement demand!
  10. DJ Dangerous
    Heljan and Peco made moves several months back, in unison so to say. The Hornby range, covering the Heljan models, is new.

    Almost sure that warbonnet posted to clarify that the three are railway items rather than vehicles or accessories.
  12. DJ Dangerous
    Feels like Hornby only entered the market to take a potential share from Heljan, rather than to actually embrace the market. As if success came secondary and hurting another company was the primary aim.
  13. DJ Dangerous
    Sure we'll probably have the pre-show announcement today, and two more at the weekend!

    Sell sell sell!

    Jaysus, sounds like a wedding on the way.
  17. DJ Dangerous
    I miss your videos and photos!
  18. DJ Dangerous
    If there is no NIR stuff like 111's or Hunslets to haul the Mk2B/C packs, maybe we'll see Irish freight stock - bogie cements, ammonias, timbers, or even auto-ballasters.

    Less than half that! And he still has it for sale, I think? If so, I might buy it from him and sell it for €400 on eBay. I'm sure they bought it themselves using another profile in order to inflate prices, there has to be some con going on there.

    This Spanish magazine trio and their IRM colleague have been in the post since April!
  21. DJ Dangerous
    That 7078 photo was fab!
  22. DJ Dangerous
    Aside from the lovely buses themselves, the yard surface looks great.
  23. DJ Dangerous
    Brake chains?
  24. DJ Dangerous
    Fertin' Hell, a brand new in box set!

    Slightly off topic, but if railcars were the staple long before the end of steam, why do forum members bitch about the railcars of today, while calling them trams, yo-yo's etc? Yes, @Noel, I'm looking at you, but not only you, there are several others. I just didn't want this to appear as a passive-aggressive dig at you, that was not my intent.
