    I'd say it's down to the practicalitites of production. Having ten different running numbers for the Taras, twelve different running numbers for the Gypsums, and at least 32 different running numbers for the P42 Flats, has to be more than any other manufacturer has offered, let alone for the Irish scene, and such a young manufacturer, too! As we have already seen, every extra run so far, Bubbles, Flats and Ballasts, has had new running numbers, so it seems obvious that IRM operate in that way. The next run of red Taras in a few years time will have new numbers, I'm sure, but I'd guess that eight new numbers would be more likely than twelve. If the running numbers are that important, re-numbering or weathering out some of the numbers must also be an option.

    Yup, IR livery Ploughs and Bundles gone, but there are still loads of IR livery Ballast wagons available outside of the bundle, and €100 per pack is great value! I've never seen the IRM site so frantic, even when the Container Liners were released, it's like a frenzy of purchase pop-ups today!

    Were the original run of Ballasts IE livery? I have one pack of the original ones procured second-hand through the forum, and I'm assuming because of the yellow wheels, and todays IE's being Packs D, E and F rather than A, B and C, that this is the case.

    Oh, don't worry, I've already ordered mine!

    I was also wondering will the Bundle offers change when those last few IR Plough vans are out of stock? There were only 30 left at the start of the week!

    Cross-posting with @Warbonnet, but it's an amazing enough announcement to warrant being published twice!

    Just awesome! These are gonna look so amazing behind the 121's and the A's! I think that it's time to sell my spare kidney...

    Surely you mean Zero 1, the SuperTrain of control systems?
  10. DJ Dangerous
    Is that a grey 2016+ 071 in the background??? Modern image??? I'll bet that you have a secret rake of yellow Spoils to run with it when nobody is watching!

    What a lovely dispay of motive power! Is that NIR 208 a Lima or Murphy one?

    @murphaph is a pro with those cardboard containers... I have a few of these cardboard ones in the post, but may forward them on to him for assembly because he's so good...

    Now that's an exellent photo, and again, more valuable information, thank you! Not long now and modellers will be able to recreate that train!
  14. DJ Dangerous
    Wow, that is impressive! As an aside, were the Mk2D's ever hauled by locos still in black, or only by SuperTrain locos and later? I'm sure that @Irishswissernie @jhb171achill will have photographic evidence if so!
  15. DJ Dangerous
    Incredibly detailed reply, thank you!

    Were the Murphy Models InterCity Mk2D's the same internally / cosmetically as their SuperTrain counterparts? As in, would MM5236 (IE Standard Orange Roof), MM5210 (IE Standard Black Roof), MM5217 (IE Standard Black Roof), MM5219 (IE Standard Orange Roof(, MM5201 (ST Standard), MM5215 (ST Standard) and MM5223 (ST Standard) all be the same apart from the livery? MM5202 (ST Standard), MM5214 (ST Standard) and MM5224 (ST Standard) were repaints of the earlier ST coaches, I believe.

    How are the 121's being transported? Not by road, I hope? Photo taken in Lithuania this morning...
  18. DJ Dangerous
    I think that I will have to have one of those when they hit the shelves. Just gorgeous in every way.
  19. DJ Dangerous
    Just exceptional. The more photos, the better!
  20. DJ Dangerous
    I had the same question when I first bought mine!
  21. DJ Dangerous
    But you'd need one Hell of a track cleaner for afterwards.
  22. DJ Dangerous
    Actually, I think that there were six per pack...
  23. DJ Dangerous
    The Deltic sound file is delicious: Are the preserved versions only being sold by DPS etc, or also by Accurascale?
  24. DJ Dangerous
    You guys have it rough up there with Level 5 restrictions kicking in. Looks like there won't be any physical shows for quite a while. Stay safe!
  25. DJ Dangerous
    That's what I was thinking of. Nom-a-licious.
