On the northern line between Northwall and Platin 20 plus was the norm. Shorter takes of about 12 used to go from Drogheda to Belfast or even attached to the rear of short liners at Dundalk to Belfast.
-
Just wow, no words do that work justice.

Love 25195 myself. It's my poster wagon I show off when someone asks to see them. Managed to get another Pack A from Marks today. I just knew you guys would sell out last night before I got paid. I like to keep a 1 boxed set and a running set of everything I have. My OCD with this hobby.
-
Any chance of another run of Irish Cement bubbles, only manage to secure 1 pack for myself and don't have funds to get another before they sell out, (only 4 left). I know they sold out so quick only because they are the only packs that can be bought at this time and chances are there will be a few CIE packs hanging around for a bit as a result. Maybe people will start swapping IC for CIE packs as they were very rare IC bubbles in reality.

The RPSI Mk2 set has been going around a few years now without the Dutch Van. The Mk2 brake/genny providing the power lately from what I can see, heance the shorter Mk2 rakes out on specials.
-
It's great that the Cravens set sold so well and sales are supporting work on 134. At the same time I find it a pity that the RPSI Mk2s didn't sell as well. It was said they would do another set when they sold out but you can still get a set in Marks for €110.
-
The RPSI sold out of them Sat Sunday and Monday at the Blackrock show. I went to buy a set on Sat and they said come back early Sunday morning they will have 16 sets in. I was there as it opened and they had only 2 left after I got mine. Tina Hand said they can't believe how fast they sold and they are all in shock. They said that run won't be repeated but they will have another set of 3 standards release for next year. I think there are only a handful left and they have to be bought from the RPSi through their Facebook page.
-
Thought there were 24 of them, assumed they ran in 2 rakes of 12.
-
I don't know when the bagged cement came in, there are the old and "new" blue curtain types of those wagons. There were/are also the 24 German built bogie bulks introduced around 1981/2. There were the very first air braked rolling stock to run in Ireland.
-
Great news, thanks. Wasn't expecting the Tara's to be cheaper, was thinking 120 for a twin pack myself. Great work lads.
-
Any word on Tara prices seeing as we have Project 4 prices? Think the taras are sold in pairs?
-
Yes the DART is fine all south of Connolly included. There are no DARTs running north of Connolly though.
-
Hi guys, I know I asked this before but I mailed and got no reply. Just asking to change my order from Parcel Motel to show collection, thanks. Finger crossed they make it.
-
For some reson on my laptop the website has gone back to old look and colours and I could see your attachments last night no problem. On my work system the site has the new look and I can open them. For some reason the site won't show up in the new format on my home laptop, only changed yesterday and I can't change it back.

1508 and 1509 were both converted to snack cars in 1990. 1509 only lasted in this configuration for just under 3 years and was lost to a fire in 1993. 1508 on the other hand has featured in almost every RPSI, ITG and IRRS railtour featuring Cravens since 1990 by request. As a model 1509 covers a very short timeframe, I think only the NIR blue 201s feature a shorter history span.
-
Yep, that's the announced 1509, sister coach to 1508.

Model Railway Exhibition & Collectors Fair, Enniskillen
Railer replied to GNRi1959's topic in What's On?
Sounds like a plan lads. Ryans is a good central location too, it's been a few years since I was in it and the food was always good. -
1508 was done. Very similar to what would be required for a good 1514 mod.

Dart overhead lines test coach(?)
Railer replied to dave182's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
There is a picture of the coach at Northwall yard with the JCB damage very visible just prior to it being scrapped. I saw it online a few years ago and I'll try track it down, think it was on the old yuku message board. -
New Website is a massive improvement guys. And with the loco, passenger stock and accessories tabs yous are really setting the mind thinking.....

Dart overhead lines test coach(?)
Railer replied to dave182's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
It was moved to Northwall and stored there. But during the works building Docklands station and lifting sidings one of the on site JCBs skewered the coach like a kebab with its forks. It was scrapped in place shortly after. -
To the IRM team. Just asking can you change my order, it's set for Parcel Motel delivery but would like to change to show pick up. Order #573 Thanks. Also I got 6 emails in the last hour saying order completed for 6 orders I placed today. I have not placed anything and they are all €0 amounts. Very odd.
-
Just have to say, wow guys. You're raised the bar yet again. I remember chatting to you Richie back when collecting the ballasts and you really pushed home how you were not happy with the top hatch and how you were working on how to improve it. Amazing work. With the taras being a personal favourite of mine since watching them as a young lad and are to raise the standard even higher I'm in awe of what you guys will come up with. Thanks to the team for all the had work, late nights and liquid lunches.
-
Very nice GSV indeed.
-
Something tells me there won't be any 121s to buy this year, just can't see it happening. There are other MM items that were due since early this year too that have not made an appearance. Re release of the ST Mk2s, the 201s in the interm and new Enterprise liveries, Cravens 1509 running number.
