Wasn't the late April one to be a "powered" one? Damn, gonna be scraping the pennies together for whatever it is!

They were probably the last of the IRM Spoil wagons, now sold out at IRM. Marks Models still show some in stock.

Just received one of these in the post today. Have to say, they are stunning! Even the packaging has a lovely Coastal Tours theme to it! Still available to order, so don't be an idiot and miss out. I wonder if I'll ever get the first one of the run!

Just forgot, I'm sure.

Looks much better with the turntable gone, lovely flow to it, love it! Would you not consider having a double track running off stage rather than just the a single? It'd mean more operational flexibility and less pointwork.

They'll look great, wherever they went. Hopefully @Dempsey releases them soon as his first Irish wagon.

Pretty sure this was done to death on the announcement. Same chassis means a smashing model at a smashing price, with a few trade-offs like the NEM pocket and the 21mm re-gauging. Definitely won't stop me from destroying the bank balance! P.S.:

While we're on the subject of mental insanity, I'm doing a clearout and I have the following to go at €500 each: Pudding bender, hardly used Spotted paint, single coat Glass hammer, smashing price Chocolate doorknob, barely nibbled Contact Annette if interested, Annette Curtain...

Yup, the Tara's are shorter, and they go around R1 curves no bother.

The close-coupling bars are awesome! I'm pretty sure that they came not only with the Tara's, but the whole Project 42 run. They couple the wagons more closely, they run more smoothly, and look less obtrusive than TLC's.

Boooooooooooo!

How are the Mags looking stock-level-wise currently?

That's incredible! Gorgeous looking coaches!

Which locos, though? The IRM 071's or their GSR 800 Class?

Just to clarify, I obviously meant Megalomaniacs, nothing maternal...

I'd say that it starts with an "M" and has about 13 letters in it's plural form.

Once you've tracked down the missing info and posted photos of the finished model, IRM will announce their own version...

What's the correct pronunciation of Accurascale? Emphasis on the first A or on the U or what? I've been putting the emphasis on the U, but I suspect that I'm wrong, if the first half of the name comes from the word "accurate" ...

Lemmings!!!

Slightly OT, but you know that you can unscrew both wheelsets, awap them around, even "fake" having a second trailer?

The perfect base for anybody wishing to create a static model out of their retired SF A class loco: https://www.ebay.es/itm/115378262965

That's either too much or not enough. 71 things would be awesome but 22000 things would be better.

Donkey Kong is pre-historic. Highly likely that the Irish modellers have a slightly younger demographic than British modellers... Or to flip it on it's head, it's likely that the more mature modellers ended up modelling British outline due to a lack of choice / skills / time, whereas the slightly younger modellers have a different world facing them.
