Agree 101% there, @derek! A stitch in time saves nine. Also, what dimensions are the beams that you've used, @LNERW1? The photo was a bit fuzzy, so it's hard to be fully sure, but they look a little thin. If they're able for it, I'd be drilling down into the centre of each beam from the baseboard, and adding a screw, while the glue is still maleable. Not sure how many screws they'd need for each beam, but a few anyway.

My Hunslet order also has free shipping, but my wagon order doesn't. Maybe the Hunslets were an exception and all have free postage.

My bad, forgot that he only wanted the DFDS CPW's!

That's exactly what I'm hoping for! Customs up in Madrid are more deadly than @mphoey's wife could possibly be.

Aaaaaanything else of interest on that same ship? Coal!

Ordered via A/S website instead of IRM website as a test, pricing worked out identical, to the cent. Will these ship to customers before, alongside, or after, the H Vans and Grain Wagons?

Language!

Have a look on YouTube and see what suits. The Bell boxes would probably have been retired before the CPW's came along. Lys Line and Cronos boxes on that one for sure. MSC and CMA-CGM boxes on that one.

That's the one! Maybe a mod could merge the two threads. Have a look through @Arran's website, I'd say there are loads of Irish-ish 40' boxes: https://shop.c-rail-intermodal.co.uk/

I'm almost sure that @MOGUL recently posted about butchering some Dapol CPW's to make them look Irish.

Sure I'll take two if they're dishing them out.

Great price considering what some of them go for! If only it were 113!

That 37903!!!

Excellent...

Browsing the Accurascale Project Status Page, and the Class 50's are showing as in-production, and expected this quarter... That's probably a little optimistic?

I see that the Rustons are in transit and expected on Dacember 23rd 2024! Accurascale project updates page: https://www.accurascale.com/pages/projects

Some amount of work in that! Adding an additional cross-member, or several diagonal cross-members, will add rigidity, and hold the sides where you want them.

Excellent looking wagons, and the 10% bundle discount is brilliant! I guess the (oil) well for Irish models is still pretty deep...

I see that Shapeways are coming back, in some form. https://www.shapeways.com/blog/shapeways-marketplace-update Hopefully, we'll see a return of the Irish O Gauge stuff - I wanted a 141 body before they went bust!

You're all way off. It's an O Gauge 22' container flat.

So plenty of time to get the 22000's paid off before the 071 bill is due.

I beg to differ:

Nice find, @Darren.d. They usually go around the €100 mark but I have also picked up a handful of UK variants over the past few months, all from eBay. I'm sure we'll see IRM run them one day - @BosKonay wouldn't have sold his IE ones otherwise!
