1994 BMW E36 Coupe in red from Solido:

Just had a closer look at three coaches. These could really pass for O Gauge, the level of detail is so high.

Agree with the lads comments, the buried track looks incredibly well done!

Dual-posting here in both of the current IRM NIR Mk2BC threads, so apologies in advance for that, but it's the only way to get around the thread-duplication right now. My replacement Irish gauge bogies arrived with @murphaph last week. @Garfield was incredibly fast at getting them shipped, like, I think they shipped within a day of us speaking to confirm the quantity. Long story, but my coaches had to ship to @murphaph rather than me, so it made sense to send the bogies there - plus nobody knows how the dreaded pencil pushers in Madrid would react to a zero-value shipment, dun dun duuuuunnnnn! While fitting the bogies to the coaches for me, @murphaph sat one of the older Bachmann coaches on top of two, just for fun. Note, these aren't fitted to the coach, they're just sitting loosely underneath, but give an idea as to how the coaches would look when retro-fitted. The Irish gauge bogies are available to buy from IRM at €20 per pair for retro-fitting, here: https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/accessories/products/53-b4-bogie-pack-black Have to say, they look absolutely savage sitting under that coach!

My Jinty was despatched on Friday, hopefully with the correct CN23 attached and an AED prepared. I did email Mark's before posting to remind them, and afterwards, to check it was done, but no reply to either mail just yet. Fingers crossed!

I also asked whether they need order numbers etc in my subsequent mail, as I had split my pre-order into several smaller ones, and they said:

As of today, Rails say:

So, will we see an HVO liveried 201 in the batch?

I'd been hoping that we'd have had an RPSI twinpack with the last batch of MM Mk2D's, with 303 and 304, but alas it wasn't to be.

Who knows what liveries we'll see on the MM 201's next year? You could get lucky.

And the handbrake can never be found.

Only realised now that the first container in that train is from the best region in the world!

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!
