Very interesting, consider prices, SKUs, running numbers etc have yet to be confirmed....

Pretty sure this will be the third run of 201s, with the first enterprise small and big yellow front and NIR being the second run.

We've just been working on other stuff is all.....

Can confirm that it is genuine. All will be available to order through IRM of course! Cheers! Fran

Their lawyers! (As it was a collaborative project with another model manufacturer who were doing it in a different gauge we were covered in the initial agreement, but their lawyers didnt realise this and sent us some interesting letters)

Any scan is delivered in full 1:1 scale. Mind you only some things are scanned, and even then it's not something importable into CAD. It's merely used as a reference point in the design process.

Many thanks for the order and kind words, Noel! Look forward to them forming an RPSI special on Tara Junction.

Buoyed by the brisk sales of yesterday, the RPSI have scoured their stores and found a few more coaches. They assure me that this is the VERY LAST stock of what they got, so last chance folks. They're back on the website and ready to order in extremely limited numbers. Thank you to everyone who has ordered them so far and supported the RPSI!

As confirmed by the RPSI spoksperson on here the other day (a comment which you 'liked' btw, so I assume you read) no second Cravens set was promised. Please stop pushing that narrative on here. Meanwhile thank you to everyone who placed orders for these coaches and helped them sell out in record time. It helps raise much needed funds for the RPSI in a most difficult time. They're having a look in their stores to see if there are any more left. Fingers crossed they find some! Thanks, Fran

The Railway Preservation Society of Ireland has kept our railway heritage alive since 1964. Since then the RPSI has relied on keeping our railway history alive through the generosity of the public through volunteering, donations and running special trains on the network across Ireland so we can continue to enjoy our railways of the past. They have also depended on revenue generated by limited edition models in partnership with Murphy Models. The recent B134 has been a godsend to the RPSI, having been shorn of rail tour revenue essential to keep the fleet maintained due to COVID19. The RPSI has now uncovered some of the Mark 2 coach packs in OO that were in storage and we are now offering them for sale on our website in very limited numbers. Perfect for haulage behind your B134 model, 071/111s, 201s and preserved steam, we are offering these coaches for sale in the three pack bundle and as individual coaches so you can bolster your fleet. These coaches are in stock now and available for immediate dispatch. Support the RPSI and add to your collection with these exclusives on the new RPSI area of our website. https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/rpsi

Some lines selling out very quickly once again. Thanks everyone for your orders!

Hi everyone, Some of your Oxford favourites have been replenished on our site and we have made further additions to the range, with more Irish and Northern Irish themed vehicles as well as some further plant and commercial vehicles added to the range. New highlights include McBurnley Transport Volvo FH, Translink coaches, ERF in Northern Ireland trailers livery and the lovely Tayto Bedford! Check out the range here and please note that some items are end of line, so stock is limited! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/vehicles UK Customers: https://irishrailwaymodels.co.uk/collections/vehicles Cheers! Fran

Great stuff Sean, layout looks excellent. Thanks for including IRM on the layout for the cameras too. It was nice to be on Prime Time for the right reasons

Ah no, where's the fun in that??

Hi @DJ Dangerous, Afraid not but you can get them from Brian direct or from Mark’s Models I believe. We have some more nice exclusives of our own coming throughout the year, the first of which is not too far away so keep an eye out for it! Cheers, Noel! It looks right at home. It’s certainly been a popular one, along with the other bits of plant we offered. More on the way too next week, including some new items and stock replenishment. Cheers! Fran

Cheers Noel, many thanks for the order!

Cars, trucks, vans, buses and even a bit of plant for my sins! All hold an interest with me and have done since childhood. Pretty much anything that moves and has an engine! Who knows what we will bring out in time, but we do have several projects on the boil as we look to grow.

True, but the Astras would be Vauxhall of course with Oxford being UK based. So a bit different grille wise! We're just as passionate about vehicles here in IRM as trains (as big a hobby for me personally!), so we can look to stock items that would compliment Irish layouts well.

Thanks everyone, several lines have sold out already but we have further stock on the way. Lot's of interest in the generic commercial vehicles and farm stuff. Would the interest be there in cars too? They would all have UK registrations but are the correct scale. We can look to order them in if the demand is there. Cheers, Fran

Hi everyone, After the unprecedented demand for our previous stock of Irish-themed Oxford Diecast vehicles in OO gauge, we have ordered your favourites back into stock and expanded the range to include plant and machinery, tractors, generic vans, trucks and Irish outline buses too! So, if you need to populate your layout with vehicles, or you just want to add some to your collection, check out some highlights below, or browse the full range by clicking here. Even more stock on the way too!

Sorry guys, missed this. Yes it's looking like we will be landing them all together! Cheers! Fran

We will be stocking the ADL MMC Enviro 400 when the time comes, due March is the latest information we have. And we have a couple of other things up our sleeves too....

Plans are afoot, as they say. But I shall say no more!

Thanks for that @murphaph. I'm glad you see it as me not being negative. I just want to add some realistic balance to the debate and give you all another point of view. I dont want to dash dreams at the end of the day, but it's just giving out another aspect of the debate. I also agree about the market growing. It certainly has since we started IRM, and we will continue to push hard to grow it further. Steam could well be a component of that! Cheers, Fran
