Interested in pack 1 and 2.

Buffers too Fran.
-
Except for the 42ft flat variant right behind the loco.
-
024 has changed to 036 too
-
Any word on the paddle steamer with these babies, hope it hasn't hit a freak rouge ice berg or something.
-
Or 2008 and up.... No off the shelf DDs or Mk4s even thouse we have the RTR locos for them. But yeah there is alot of 1950-60s rolling stock that could do with some IRM TLC.
-
There's a few hydraulic ones left at Fairview depotnow painted in yellow Noel.
-
The non DMU one being done under the Accurascale brand is used here too from what I have seen but not as widespread as the IRM one.
-

I believe they stripped the air con out of the Mk2D and converted to pressure heating like the rest of the RPSI Mk2 set. There are 2 brake gens in that set above, first and last, at least one is powering the train. The RPSI also have 2 Dutch Vans they use with the MK2s, 1 being overhauled at York Road and the other being converted.
-
Modified Dutch Vans with the Mk3 gangways not the standard Dutch Vans.
-
Yeah, to give time for the traverser at the unloading terminal on Alexandra Road to be modified to take the length of the 071 class. Suppose the could always have got the loco to run round in the yard then propel the wagons down the tramway if they wanted. BTW anyone know the numbers of the last running A class in IR ownership. I think 051 or 056 off top of my head.
-
I plan to have at least 1 of each, assuming they don't all sell out first haha. But will mainly focus on the super train, IR and green locos.
-
Looking that the site. Top 3 sellers are Silver A1, A39r in b and t, 051 in full IR tippex day glow livery. In last place is the all black with yellow panel livery.
-
The buffer beam side sole bar difference stands out. On the lined loco its green but black on the unlined loco.
-
Really loving the green A class. Thanks very much for the pics lads.
-
I was asking Fran that at the show. All he could say to me in the mass brawl lol, was that they will be doing just 250 of the special edition A1. The rest would vary depending on livery popularity.
-
Thanks Patrick. Just looking at one of jhb171s old posts. He has 13 of the class listed in the dark green and the rest in the lighter shade with only 046 going from dark to light.
-
Guys, do you have any pics of an A class with the lined green livery, just to see with and without. To me I thought only the C class got the green lined livery. Cheers.
-
Have to say a give hats off to the team on the A class. It's going to be a very, very long year for us all waiting to get out mits on the finished product. But I bet the time will fly for team IRM as they get this to market as perfect as possible. I believe Richie is taking 6 months of that time just to perfect the shades of orange and green . I always thought the A class would be well down the road. That first we would see a coach of some type (Mk1GSV), then maybe an E class or C class before the mighty A makes an appearance. As Tony Stark once said, Sometimes you need to run before you can crawl.

Early on Saturday morning they were trying to run a BR green A4 on the Wexford O gauge layout. Seemed to be having issues with it. It wasn't on the layout when I went back on Sunday lunch time. Don't know if just me but the other half even said it. There seemed to be a lack of layouts at this show compared to past shows, it was more kids with Thomas and trade based.
-
And an oil pump for the roof lol.
-
They didn't get allocated stand A for nothing....
-
And 027, the only one to be fitted with airbrakes for the shale wagons. Great announcement today, if I hadn't spent the guts of a grand on the liners before discovering I could pre order the A class I would have paid up front in full,deposit will have to do for now. Nice chatting to Rich and Fran as always, poor lads looked knackered even at 11am. The fantastic Rawie buffer stop not getting a lookin with the A class haha. Some very interesting info from Rich in the buffers, much appreciated.
