  1. I'd imagine it's as much to do with buying up loads of other companies over the past 10-15 years and the 2012 Olympic merchandising disaster, not to mention the Sanda Kan episode as much as the 'doom and gloom death of the hobby' angle being bandied about that has left Hornby in this mess. Mind you it's not the first time it's happened to the company, most infamous of all in the late 60s when the hobby was at its peak.
  2. The App constantly crashes for me on my IPad 2. Very frustrating as it was a great App before this started happening and pics look great on a tablet.
  3. Correct, same engine as our Sulzers. BR blue is seeing serious nostalgia in recent years. I think it's the diverse loco classes on elderly stock and what people with disposable income now remember most fondly!
  4. top notch Dave! The look class!
  5. I'd have to disagree with you on that one Noel. My Brass LMS 10000 diesel knocks the spots off the Dapol and Bachmann equivalents. I've put the three of them side by side and there's only one, very clear winner.
  6. Filth!!! Did you get her with sound??
  7. Yes, the shed is used as a base for the RPSI. 461 and 4 (I think) are on site. One is due out to play tomorrow.
  8. Cheers Noel, they look well on the brightly coloured ballast wagons.
  9. Some pics from today including 088 on the HOBs, enjoy! 088 HOBS Clondalkin/Fonthill by franburke, on Flickr
  10. We plan to produce all liveries. We're just not sure on what order we'll do them yet!
  11. Latest news from Irish Railway Modellers Towers including what to do if you missed out on ordering the ballast wagon http://irishrailwaymodels.com/index.php/2016/02/01/irm-sells-out-first-run-of-ballast-wagons/
  12. Apologies, it was £14, not £24. You wouldn't get out of bed for that! http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/hattons-model-railways-moves-out-10767754
  13. All in good time, and these things really do take a lot of time. We at least want the ballasts in everybody's hands before we do any announcing.
  14. We've said too much already. You will all just have to wait and see!
  15. A few from me today chasing the rail train. Enjoy! 22329 by franburke, on Flickr
  16. Maybe you did, maybe you didn't... Anyway, it's all a bit of fun. We like a bit of that on the forum.
  17. Not so, just not 'one offs'!
  18. I can't see many members of IRM ever becoming detectives.
  19. There's a clue or two lying around...
  20. I think you'd explode Gareth if we did tell you
  21. Don't think any of our peepers could handle it!
  22. They said they'll have an extensive shop in the new place. They made £24 million last year!!!! Wowsers!
  23. Fabulous!
