  1. And massive Black Friday discounts at IRM! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/black-friday-deal Taras, buses, cars, accessories, you name it!
  2. I actually meant the capitalization of the initial A; A or a? The pronounciation is a dodgy one. I put the emphasis on the "u" but some put the emphasis on the first "a" as in "Accurate"... Big Black Friday deals at both Accurascale and Hatton's this weekend! https://www.accurascale.com/collections/black-friday-deal/ https://www.hattons.co.uk/newsdetail?id=1460
  3. A wireless controller would be handy!
  4. Pretty sure you emailed me, or maybe posted here, pics of some insane looking touchscreen thing where you could drag the locos around to allocate them numbers etc. Is that the Z21? The only wierd thing I've noticed on the PowerCab is that there's no dial, seems to be all buttons and a slider.
  5. I wonder if we'll see any IRM or Accurascale madness this weekend... The big question is: Accurascale or accurascale?
  6. What did I tell you, @JasonB? See how many members viewed your thread last night, just because you had a celebrity post from me? Was it eight in the space of ten minutes? You'll have the regular DAF lovers like @murphaph, @MOGUL and @Rob in over the next few days, too. I should start charging for my influence, but take this one as a freebie.
  7. Looking forward to seeing / hearing a few trains idling and passing each other, here.
  8. They sent an email out a few weeks back to that effect. Shipped two small orders to me with zero shipping yesterday, too.
  9. Amazing that it's not really that long since the orange and black era. Sometimes, it seems so much more distant.
  10. What's with the new Hatton's boxes? Kind of trapezoid shaped instead of rectangular.
  11. You could also try contacting him via his eBay profile, if no response to emails: https://www.ebay.ie/usr/helix0_8
  12. It's because you just don't carry the same literary charisma as me, your posts don't have the same sordid steamy gravitas that mine do. Within minutes of me posting anything, even if we sometimes disagree, @Noel / @Signal Post, @Gabhal Luimnigh, @patrick and @Galteemore are reading it, and usually within another few minutes, @Westcorkrailway , @Patrick Davey, @DART8118 and @Newtoncork are in enjoying it. Just you watch!
  13. Bit late for that, it's looking at me as we speak!
  14. I'm actually BosKonay, this is my second account... So, you wanna buy an A Class for €400 to re-wheel? I know a man, with a container, at IRM Towers.
  15. Murphy Models Cravens Coach no. 1523 for £53 at Hatton's: https://www.hattons.co.uk/1550794/murphy_models_mm1523_po05_irish_cravens_open_coach_in_orange_black_livery_pre_owned_very_good_box/stockdetail
  16. LOL, phrasing! So, can anybody offer pros, cons, tips and tricks on the NCE PowerCab gained over the last ten years? The only thing I know so far is that it contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Guess I'd better not get pregnant.
  17. How come nobody likes your DAF??? It's out of this world. I saw several members reading your thread and nobody liked this? What on Earth is going on? Maybe it's because you posted it instead of me. I'm so popular that I guarantee you, if I hijacked your thread with another pic, the froth would be flowing!
  18. Oxford Diecast Bus Éireann Expressway Irizar i6 reduced to €18.24 each at Hatton's: https://www.hattons.co.uk/961180/oxford_diecast_76ir6008_bus_eireann_expressway_irizar_i6/stockdetail I can't help but feel that both IRM and Oxford Diecast are kind of skirting around the more "classic" liveries that would have wider appeal, and instead going for less popular / less common / less compatible liveries. That said, when the IRM 22000 ICR's and grey Murphy Models 071's hit the shelves, demand for this particular bus model will probably pick up!
  19. Yeah, the purple just looks fab! Don't think it's very useful from a prototypical standpoint, but every time I say something like that to myself, I then challenge myself with the following question: How long would a prototypical TLC be if scaled-up? Oh come on, Intercity Swallow (Hello Irish Enterprise, we know who you copied!) and NSE are also delightful!
  20. Could you repeat that but add in the word "actual" a few times, please?
  21. A few other stands that might be of interest: A24: IRM / Accurascale E30: C&L Finescale E33: Railtec Transfers Full lists here: https://thewarleyshow.co.uk/ Can't see @Arran's C-Rail Intermodal, DC Kits nor Murphy Models listed at the moment.
  22. @TimO, I think, mentioned in one of the Mk2D threads that the bogie mounting will not be compatible this time around. Other Mk2D threads on the new release: https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/14931-murphy-models-mk2d https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/14737-pre-order-your-murphy-models-mark-2d-coaches-via-irm Here's a post on removing Cravens bogies - with a vice grips: https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/14542-removing-mm-craven-bogies Here's a thread on the original runs of the Mk2D's using the current bogie mounting: https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/3996-mk-2-supertrain-coaches
  23. Superquinn sausages?????
  24. Thanks for posting that, @Patrick Davey! Great interview from @Warbonnet. Although, I'm rather heartbroken to hear him say that my idea for making an O Gauge A Class more viable won't work! In fairness, the IRM lads have said that repeatedly here on the forum, that IRM would barely be sustainable without Accurascale. Although not a British modeller, I have been buying some Accurascale models, to do my bit for the future of the Irish market. I was quite struck by what Fran said near the middle of the clip, something like "The best modelmaker in the world is @Darius43 and we have him locked in a basement in China". Also funny to hear that there was outrage over the Ruston 88D not being " big" enough for their first O Gauge loco! I missed the outrage, but do have one pre-ordered via Hatton's, again to do my bit for the longer term future of the Irish market.
  25. Tara Junction makes the weekend feel like a real weekend!
