    I wonder if the thread title could be changed to: "Replacement (Non-OEM) Parts for OO Gauge Model Railway Locos and Coaches" Can anybody suggest an alternative for a Murphy Models 141/181 detailing kit, specifically the horns? I mean, there must be spares out there for other models that have at least a passing resemblance? Thank you!

    A few photos taken today... The Correos (postal service) trucks are 1:87 and not as highly detailed as the Oxfords, but they remind me of the pain that Correos put me through waiting on my orders almost every single time.

    I shouldn't really have had a running session today, but was excited at receiving my IRM Empty Flats and a package of Baby GMs from @Look-its-evan! Excuse the squeaking, but I hadn't time for lubing anything - lubing up is a weekend thing.
  4. DJ Dangerous
    Some fabulous weathering on those models, particularly B134!

    Barely fifty packs left! It's brilliant to see IRM's products selling out so quickly! Great sign for the future, and for the growth of the Irish market itself.

    A few pictures of some of the road vehicles in my collection. The City Imp is probably one of my favourites, with the DAF not far behind.

    Two nice packs, but crazy prices: https://www.ebay.es/itm/LIMA-MURPHY-MODELS-L149439-1-IRISH-RAIL-COACH-PACK-2-XMK3-1X-MSD-RARE-ITEM/193698971710?hash=item2d195bc03e:g:HmAAAOSwPeJffDSP https://www.ebay.es/itm/LIMA-MURPHY-MODELS-L149439-1-IRISH-RAIL-COACH-PACK-2-XMK3-1X-MSD-RARE-ITEM/193698971710?hash=item2d195bc03e:g:HmAAAOSwPeJffDSP

    The FREMO concept is complete modularity, yeah? So if you and a friend both have layouts built on FREMO boards, you could combine your modules to make a larger layout?

    Thanks for the update.

    So P20 is more likely than P47. Ah FUD that, I wanted IRM 47ft flats!
  11. DJ Dangerous
    So rather than an IRM project, the 40ft beet containers may be something more suited to @Arran

    Thank you. I'm not a hardcore modeller like some of the miracle workers on the forum, I just like trains, static and dynamic! Although, I am going to try put together a slightly larger simpleton layout for Christmas:
  13. DJ Dangerous
    I don't really have a layout, just a board that slides under the bed for running sessions, so I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this video:
  14. DJ Dangerous
    Yes, this would be wonderful! Lovely 1994 footage of a Bell Liner train with a CIE 20' box at the end, starting around 21:40:

    Wow, those Symoba 362 NEM pockets look perfect, and their drawbars are awesome!
  16. DJ Dangerous
    Do the Bachmann Y25 bogies come with NEM pockets or do these need to be glued on? If they need to be glued on, where did you source the NEM pockets?

    Thanks, @Mayner, very informative as always. So, from a manufacturers point of view, there'd be a lot less mileage from a P47 than there was from P42, or would be from a P20? It's a shame that they have had such limited useage through their life as they do cover quite a long period. An awful lot of the containers on the liners today, according to YouTube videos, appear to be 45ft, so some 47ft wagons are essential for 2020 modellers. I'll have a read of Nile's thread on RMWeb, thank you!

    A little pre-historic but still acceptable...
  19. DJ Dangerous
    Stunning photos and lighting! Aside from the quality of the layout itself, the realism in your photos is sublime.
  20. DJ Dangerous
    If there were to be a Project 47 some day, what use could be made of the chassis? When did the 47ft wagons first start service, and how many wagons are there? Has the chassis been modified or plated over or is it the same today as when it entered service? Are they used for anything other than container liners and the Sperry survey container? Do they run on the same Sambre et Meuse Y33 Bogies as the 42ft flats? Have all of the 42ft flats been withdrawn from container liner service by now for use on spoil wagons and the weedspray / Sperry train?
  21. DJ Dangerous
    That's an excellent video, and those Mk3's are lovely!
  22. DJ Dangerous
    £82 plus shipping! €100 for three containers.. IRM need to get some B&I and Bell 40ft container packs released ASAP... They'll make a killing for Christmas!
  23. DJ Dangerous
    Now that's a nice line-up for a manufacturer, even if they are a bit pre-historic. Five liveries from one single tooling!
  24. DJ Dangerous
    So after the IRM RoadLiner trucks, or RoadLiner trailers at least, these will hit the shelves!
  25. DJ Dangerous
    Thank you for the openness and honesty in that post!
