Hi everyone, Just a bit of industry news from us as we welcome a new project manager, Paul Isles, to our team! Accurascale Welcomes Paul Isles On Board as Project Manger We are delighted to announce that Paul Isles has joined our team as Project Manager. Paul joins the Accurascale team later this month as the company continues to expand its operations and push to release exciting ready-to-run models and accessories in OO and O gauge. Having spent a number of years with Hornby, modellers will be familiar with Paul’s work. With a successful track record of highly regarded models spanning a multitude of eras including steam, diesel and electric as well as coaches, wagons, road vehicles and more, Paul brings a wide range of expertise to our team. As well as his project research of a fine array of models, Paul is also synonymous with the well known “Engine Shed” blog and the design of several Hornby catalogues. Along with model railway knowledge, Paul also has experience of the real railway, having worked in the railfreight industry in BR days. Speaking on the announcement Paul outlined his enthusiasm over his new role; “I am hugely excited at the opportunities that lie ahead for us as at Accurascale and to the challenges that will come our way as we seek to introduce new, high fidelity models to the UK railway modelling market, across a range of gauges.” “It is Accurascale’s reputation for their attention to detail that excites me as a Project Manager; to have extensive and exhaustive research translated into a feature rich scale model is a massive inspiration for any research professional and I have very high hopes for the models that we currently have in development, as well as future projects in the pipeline.” Stephen McCarron, Managing Director of Accurascale added; “We’re thrilled to welcome Paul to our growing team at Accurascale. He brings a wealth of experience and industry knowledge with him and shares our desire to produce highly detailed definitive models without equal. With our exciting roadmap over the coming years he adds a dynamic new element to our skill set.” Watch out for new models with Paul’s stamp of them coming soon from Accurascale!

Growlers at Goring and other Freight!
Warbonnet replied to leslie10646's topic in What's happening on the network?
Yes, 20s and 47s still working day to day, mainly on stock movements. The 37s also work on stock movements, test trains, engineering trains etc. There is still one class 31 mainline registered and working too! -

Warbonnet replied to Warbonnet's topic in Bus models
We'll see how the rest of these sell, but we have some big and interesting ideas ahead! -
Two different suppliers.

I believe they're not far away either, but worth asking Murphy Models!

Order yours here (Limited stock remaining!) https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/vehicles Cheers! Fran -

If it's anything like our pre-orders you always get a few drop outs before they land, so I would keep the faith!

Only three packs of slate grey bubbles left everyone, last chance! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/cement-bubbles/products/cie-grey-cement-wagon-multi-pack-i

Our allocation of B121, B135 and the RPSI B134 are on the way to our distribution centre. Dispatch will begin later this week/early next week. Exciting times!
-
Were you willing to pack all the orders and offer the space, Martin? Fair play, going above and beyond for the RPSI. Locked ONCE AGAIN due to people taking the joy out of the MM and RPSI 121.

Feast or Famine - Passenger Stock for A's and 121's
Warbonnet replied to DJ Dangerous's topic in Irish Models
It doesnt mean they wont be offered in a new run again though. The toolings exists, so "we have the technology" as they say! -
Clear direction here, Noel. Enjoy the week off. Feel free to email your query to us. Thanks, Fran To answer the other query. They will be shipped from the UK so it will be a couple of weeks before they land with you all if you ordered these 121s with us. Cheers! Fran

God, that's months away! Nothing planned to be honest!

Hi everyone, This thread is now open again after it was taken totally off topic over the weekend. The off topic posts have been removed out of respect for the RPSI and Murphy Models 121s. Let's keep it about them, If anyone involved in the off topic discussion would like to discuss that subject further, you can contact us direct via email: support@irishrailwaymodels.com Any more off topic posts on this thread shall be removed. Let's keep it about the exciting arrival of these models. Cheers! Fran (on behalf of IRM)

It also helps spare the driver the emotional trauma of having killed someone n the line, which I imagine would be quite significant.

I've asked Derek to post here yesterday actually, so look out for updates in the coming days all going well!
-
Ah, at the time of writing it isnt, but we might have a cancellation or two. Will know more when we get the stock in next week, so keep an eye out for developments! Cheers! Fran

Hi everyone, We got word today that the first 3 121s; B121, B135 and the RPSI special edition B134 are landing in Dublin next week. They will then be taken into stock and pre-orders will be dispatched from Monday week. We still have some stock of these three locos allocated to us, so get them before they go! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/murphy-models-class-121-locomotive Cheers! Fran

I would imagine there will be a future run of them as the tooling exists, worth keeping an eye out for updates. -

No lead time as it's all new to us. An excellent model of the KD already exists, so wont be that. -
