Can we keep it on topic and not go down a wishlisting sink hole please lads? Cheers! Fran

Factory weathering just doesnt cut the mustard in our view.

We’re not sure yet, but it’s open for a week so let’s see where it goes! of course any new packs would have new running numbers, we’ve found some for Irish Cement recently... Cheers, Fran

Down to our last four packs of F in stock folks., don't say we didnt warn you! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/cement-bubbles/products/two-axle-cement-wagon-multi-pack-f Should we do another run? What livery would you like to see if we did? Cast your vote and let us know! Cheers, Fran

Hi Paddy, Shameless self promotion, but https://irishrailwaymodels.com Cheers! Fran

We're not 100% sure yet JB, but possibly Bangor, but dont hold us to that! We want to clear the decks of poughs and 42ft goodies before we unleash this one on the market.

"So, how did you spend your day in work on this wet, cold, windy January day, Richie?" "Ah sure the usual, climbing all over a subject for our next model, laying on wet ballast underneath it, taking hundreds of pictures and measuring it. Sure I love the glamour jobs!" What could it be? Find out later this year!

Should have some news later this week Noel!

That’s the plan! We will have more info about n the whole sound area for the A after the Nuremberg Toy Fair in Feb all going well. 50% of us, so half way there! if only it ran like that, even once!

Fabulous stuff, Eoin!

Hi everyone, As you know, we set up a deposit scheme for the A Class, which allows everyone the chance to break down and spread out the cost of the locos across the production period, making paying for the models more manageable and convenient. We know locos can be expensive, and the A is a fleet of locos necessary for many, so we like to help where we can. As you will know if you availed of the deposit scheme online, you receive an email after completing your order, log in and pay. The scheme has been very successful (though much more of you have elected to pay up front!). However, there are a small handful of orders who have placed and order but so far have not paid their deposit. We have contacted those members today, and while we understand that emails can fall into spam folders etc., in the interest of fairness to all our customers, we require the deposits to be paid. If these are not paid we will be forced to cancel these pre-orders. If you are unsure of your payment status, or you have a query or you have not received an email about payment, or need guidance on how to pay, please email info@irishrailwaymodels.com and we will help you out. It's only a handful of orders, so it wont take us long to get through. Please don't PM me, as I dont look after pre-orders so I wont be able to help you! emailing info@irishrailwaymodels.com is the place to go! Cheers! Fran (on behalf of IRM)

I was told that it is due to easy rebranding for swapping of aircraft between sister companies, so all that needs to change is the tail rather than a full repaint. Sad, but that's the way of the world now.

Not sure why Noel, website is performing like a champ here!

Hi everyone, We know it's taken us a while, but livery details of all the A Classes is now online here https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/a-class-locomotive Should help you with your decisions! Cheers, Fran

I believe Dave at Model Rail Baseboards may make them too?

Hi everyone, Wee update; China is ploughing (aha!) ahead with production and we hope to have them before Chinese New Year kicks off in a couple of weeks time. So, they could be delivered within the next month, or 3 months time. Fingers crossed it's the former, and we will keep you up to date as per usual. Cheers! Fran

Cheers lads, appreciate your faith and support of us!

Hi everyone, We are up for a few categories in the BRM 'Model of the year' this year, with the Tara Mines in the OO Wagon of the year category along with our Accurascale BR Coal hopper, and we are also in for the OO Manufacturer of the Year category. It would be great if you could give us your vote in their poll! http://www.rmweb.co.uk/poll/index.php?sid=35836&lang=en Cheers! Fran

Have the grey 121 badge, it's cool!

Just pulled some photos together from over the past year, a lot more has been happening than I even remember! And this isn't even including all the Accurascale stuff! 2019 is going to be nuts!

Happy new year one and all and here's to an action packed 2019 for IRM. Thanks to all members of the forum and all our customers for your support during the past 12 months! Cheers, Fran

Thanks Kevin, although we made less of them than the ivory we are really pleased with how they have sold too. Original slate grey anyone?? Cheets, Fran

Hi everyone, Just a quick heads up, we are now sold out of orange pack E of our cement bubbles, and at the time of writing only have 15 packs of pack F left in stock, so down to to the bare bones of cement bubbles. Don't miss out! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/cement-bubbles Cheers, Fran

Can we keep behaviour on the forum civil towards other members please? It's Christmas and mods would rather spend time with family than babysit big children on here and start dishing out bans. Thanks.

Those bogies! So good to see some proper Irish Commonwealth bogies done so well!
