Sticking no-smoking signs onto stuff!

Excess pre-order stock went on sale on Wednesday morning so dispatching pre-orders isn't likely to be far behind that. There was some sort of technical issue with the listing, so that may have affected the fulfillment centre's ability to get started on orders.

Lovely photos, @Bob229, the coaches look fabulous! Yeah, poor old @Rob is well and truly out of business with his massochistic no-smoking-sign application fetish.

Cracking price for cracking wagons!

Would that be a Fowler4F? Not too common here on the forum lately. That's IRM, keeping fifty-plus-year-old toddlers occupied since 2018!

I tip my hat to you two jokers: The Flying Chipper? Does it smell that good?

I am so jealous, envious, angry, and hate-filled right now. You guys and your almost-instant delivery! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, I hope you get rain, rain and more rain! Coaches look wonderful and it's great to see such positive feedback. Be a few months before mine arrive, but I'm sure they'll be worth the wait.

Crap, I'd better sign off!

Another one already has his IR coaches! Envious as Hell here.

You've already received yours??? Sorcery!

Bit of a long shot, but following on from THIS post on RMWeb, does anybody here know which of the UK Mk2B/C coaches ended up with Irish bogies? Was it only Mk2B BFK's and only a specific livery? My replacement Irish gauge bogies have arrived - IRM were super fast at getting them sent out once I got my backside in gear and gave them a tally. But, I'm going to end up with a few UK gauge B4 bogies to spare, and would like to know which UK coaches would be suitable for swapsies! Thanks in advance!

Talk about living in a box...

If only you knew a man who could source some 40' containers for your collection...

Well said, @StevieB. It's easy to forget the pressure others can be under at times. We're lucky to have IRM! OIl tanks re-ordered successfully this morning, happy days!!!

I'd be more interested in a Thomas set if you had one.....

Solido have released TWO different EG Civic hatchbacks recently. Haven't received mine, yet, but here are the links for any car nuts like @Keitheg6 and @Barryd88: https://cochesdemetal.es/1991-honda-civic-eg6-blanco-escarcha-118-solido-s1810401 https://www.loisir-et-miniature.com/voitures-de-collection-miniatures-coupes-sports/7954-honda-civic-eg6-1991-118-s1810402-solido-3666964640170.html Happy spending!

The benefits of BrExit, yay, thanks to the angry bald wierdoes who voted for it.

The IR livery Mk2B/C packs are now showing as in stock! Only 8 units of Pack a left, so get the fingers out... https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/mark-2-coaches

Hit the nail on the head there, WCR. People have been crying out for something like this for years, an Irish loco for the price of a pack of wagons. Order already placed for mine!

Getting psyched for these babies, specially after the NIR ones arriving the other day! Question on the bogies. Do any of these have B5's or is it all B4's? Don't forget to budget for those two 1:18 EG hatchbacks from Solido!

Awesome!!! Defo need one of these babies! The livery looks lovely. What does @jhb171achill have to say on it?

This has happened to me several times with items being sent FROM Ireland to Las Canarias. The AED (Advanced Electronic Data) has been missing or incomplete, even though there has been a physical CN23 declaration attached, and the parcel has been rejected up in Madrid automatically. Both physical and electronic declarations must be complete for goods entering and leaving the EU.

On the topic of a noisy day…..

I believe that the generator coach in each of the three NIR liveries shipped with two B5's instead of a B5 and a B4. Hands up, I'm open to correction on that, I'm basing that evaluation solely on my own packs, and I apologise in advance if I'm wrong! If I am correct, anybody who has requested replacement B4 bogies from IRM is likely to have one spare B5 bogie after swapping theirs, so there should be people out there with unwanted B5's once replacements start landing. I've seen several pictures and videos of generators here on the forum. Maybe dropping PM's to those particular posters, and putting a "Wanted" post in the "For Sale or Wanted" area, might be a good idea.
