We've just been gazing at our pre-production samples of the orange bubbles at IRM Towers, and we're getting very giddy indeed! We're delighted on how they turned out, and some of the fine tampo printing in particular is testament the skilled souls in our factory. These are due to be with us next week and we will be working tirelessly to get them to everyone before Christmas! Have you ordered yours yet? www.irishrailwaymodels.com/shop

I'm a big fan of GT3 too George but it looks like the rest of the gang wont go for it! Would love to see your kit when it's finished!

Yes.

Hi everyone, As mentioned elsewhere, Irish Railway Models are venturing into the UK market in 2018 under our new brand, Accurascale. This will see us do British outline models in OO scale across a variety of eras and subjects. During our last customer survey it was indicated that a huge percentage of Irish railway modellers also model UK outline so Accurascale is sure to be of interest to you. Don't worry though, we will still be bringing out lots of Irish outline models in the coming years, including three, or maybe even four new models in 2018 alone for the Irish market. Accurascale models will be realises which have no impact on the amount of Irish models we will be doing with IRM. Anyway, our first release will be in February 2018 and is currently in the tooling room. We have just put our Facebook page live, so if you could give it a like we would really appreciate it too! https://www.facebook.com/AccurascaleUK/ We're also sure you've seen the video of us talking to Andy York of British Railway Modelling magazine and of course, RMWeb. But for those of you who haven't, here it is below. Cheers!

Can we stick to the subject of Silver Fox's new releases please? Thanks everyone!

Hey everyone, Just a heads up; We're 75% sold out of the ivory bubbles already. Thank you to everyone who placed an order with us! We really appreciate it and they have been a great success. It's incredible to think that they only arrived just over a month ago! We would recommend that you grab some now before they go completely. We all know what happened with pack A after all. Pack B is not far behind from going completely, with C and D catching up too. They ain't hanging around!

Are your family or friends looking to get you a model for Christmas but you're having trouble explaining your cement bubble from your elbow to them? Let our new gift card take the stress out of Christmas! We have just launched the IRM Giftcard, which can be used on our website, at our warehouse or at any show we attend. It’s easy to top up and simple to use. You or your family can put €25, €50 or €100 at a time onto the card, and even top it up multiple times, turning it into a savings card too for future IRM purchases coming down the line. Follow the link and drop a hint to the family on what you really want this Christmas! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/shop/card/gift-card/

LATEST NEWS FROM CHINA!! FIRST LOOK AT ORANGE BUBBLES!!! We've just received these images of our orange bubbles from China which will be shipping to us in the coming weeks in time for Christmas! We love how the detail really pops out on the grey chassis in particular! What do you think of them? We are doing two packs of these beauties which you can order now via www.irishrailwaymodels.com/shop. They're certain to prove very popular.

You never know what’s on our list, George!

They’re all I’ve got!

Always a pleasure to see you Noel (and the other forum members at the show, it was like a local one I recognized so many faces!) hope you had a nice evening with your good lady! re the video; “they’re thin on the ice”?? My god! I’ve spent my working life throwing others in front of cameras, from sporting stars to politicians. Was a long time since I did it myself but it was good to do, even if I have a face more suited to radio Warley, as always, was an interesting experience and I would recommend it to anyone to do it at least once. There really is something for everyone. Patrick and I spent a lot of the show in work mode, but we did get to see a few layouts and exhibits too this afternoon before the flight home.

Cheers Seamus. I think Patrick was referring to 461...

Absolutely stunning Popeye, no other words for it. Well done!

Exactly. Everyone and their mother knows it’s Sambo.

They won’t be, Steve just wants you to buy several!

Due to the volume of distribution we are doing to Ireland and the UK, we can now offer FREE SHIPPING to the island of Ireland for all orders over €150 and free shipping to Great Britain for all orders over €200! Another reason the take the plunge and order some ballast wagons or cement bubbles (or both!)

I’ve seen Eoin’s creations in the flesh. They look excellent!

Pack B of the ballast wagon is now sold out at IRM Towers. Thanks for all the orders! I know it’s cement bubble fever at the moment, but we are down to the bare bones of packs A and C of the ballast hoppers. So if you’re on the fence, it might be time to take the plunge before it’s too late. www.irishrailwaymodels.com/shop Sales from them go to fund one of three (possibly four) exciting all new projects next year...

Marks sold out of their pack A allocation in a day or two I believe. They will be getting B, C and D very soon though

The bubbles have landed and the first shipments are on their way! The balance of our ivory bubble order has arrived from China! We have been working hard all day doing QC checks and we've even managed to get some orders packed and sent out this evening! We will be doing the same over the next few days. It should take about a week to check all orders and ship them to you. Thank you everyone for your support and patience as always. We hope you enjoy the definitive model of the iconic cement bubble! We still have bubbles in stock but with just over 70% of the run sold out already they wont hang around for long! Order yours today on our website

Cracking pics Finbarr. I'm going to miss the 125s when they go, but at least some are migrating to Scotland to live on for another few years yet! Like the MTU noise too but you couldn't beat the Paxmans...

Hi everyone, We have two of the pack B ballast wagons left in stock. Just a heads up! Thanks for all your orders! Fran www.irishrailwaymodels.com/shop

I have to say I like the 80 in Enterprise...

At least it shows all the detail under the tank that Richie went to get lengths replicating!
