  1. Ah that's a shame. I understand the reasoning though.
  2. @BosKonay will this fulfillment direct from China be the norm from now on? I like it and it seems to work well, but we only get the tracking number for the last leg, be that Fastway in Ireland or DHL in Germany or whatever. That means in my case I only get a "your parcel is in Germany" and then 24 hours later the postman is ringing the doorbell. There is a YunExpress tracking number that would be more useful as folks could track the package all the way from China and know it's in transit. It would surely lead to fewer mails to support too. Would it be possible to provide this tracking number as well as the local number?
  3. Got mine as well today and they look lovely. Looks like the wagons came straight from China in less than 2 weeks. Good going! That's much faster than shipping them all via Dublin I guess
  4. Yeah for the most part these things were kept pretty clean. The coach ends, especially the more exposed outer ends got grubby and the coach wash couldn't really get in there to clean them. The roof line above the gutter was cleaned by the washer a little bit so the roof requires a feather (masked high) when doing the dirt coat. I was kind of surprised at how black and sooty the louvres on the genny got but that's what the photographic evidence seems to show.
  5. Bit of weathering of these fine coaches...
  6. What a little beauty
  7. The lights are sublime on these. You can just picture them on a wintry Friday evening service to some far flung provincial town, packed with people glad of the warmth inside. Absolutely cracking models. I bought the two IR sets and one IE set (to get the buffet) with a view to selling the three black roofed IE ones on but I can't part with them now. I model 1995ish so the black roof is a no-go so I'll be respraying the roof in all over orange.
  8. You should probably send them a support mail John as you are specifically asked not to combine pre-orders from different product lines in case one line arrives much later than the other and the first line is out of stock before the second line arrives. Stock is not held for a customer until all the pre-orders are in stock AFAIK so your open wagons might be sold to someone else if you don't sort it out with a request for support. There are only a handful left in stock so get your skates on
  9. She looks right at home there Patrick!
  10. Very informative chaps. Thanks!
  11. Were these types of tanks also used for molasses traffic?
  12. Shame they don't do the free entry for members of the public at the weekend anymore.
  13. Where D's look like O's and R's look like A's
  14. I got a dispatch notification email on Friday.
  15. Hi all, I'm selling a rake (all 4 packs) of the original IRM Guinness flats in brand new in box condition. €100 per pack or all 4 packs for €380 plus insured and tracked postage (€16.50) Feel free to message me if you're interested.
  16. And no finer layout to display them on!
  17. Just got my shipping notification. The tension is building! Usually takes a few days for stuff to get here so I'll have to contain my excitement until then.
  18. Symoba also makes NEM pockets and close coupling mechanisms for retrofitting older (design) models.
  19. Hi all, If anyone has ordered the above with orange roofs that they prefer had black roofs then feel free to PM me about a swap. All the best.
  20. Great stuff. The deliveries are coming thick and fast now!
  21. Are these shipping already? I got an email to say my card has been charged for them.
  22. When was this style of tanker introduced Arran?
  23. Our town in Germany, not 20km from the capital city still has several unmetalled roads that get graded in spring before cratering and falling apart again a few weeks later! Ours was metalled for the first time in 2015!
  24. Looking ace George!
