  1. Great news, thanks. Wasn't expecting the Tara's to be cheaper, was thinking 120 for a twin pack myself. Great work lads.
  2. Any word on Tara prices seeing as we have Project 4 prices? Think the taras are sold in pairs?

    Dart service

    Yes the DART is fine all south of Connolly included. There are no DARTs running north of Connolly though.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Yep, that's the announced 1509, sister coach to 1508.
  8. 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.
  9. 1508 was done. Very similar to what would be required for a good 1514 mod.
  10. 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.
  11. New Website is a massive improvement guys. And with the loco, passenger stock and accessories tabs yous are really setting the mind thinking.....
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. Very nice GSV indeed.
  16. 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.
  17. Going to be a fantastic set and at only 250 units I can see them selling out. One thing I hope is that a second set is commissioned unlike the RPSI Mk2 set. There are still a few of these around and a second set was promised to be commissioned if they sold out which they more or less have a few years now. Granted more of the RPSI Mk2s would required some modifications. Anyway, back to these Cravens, love the livery and will be picking up a few sets when released, it would be nice if they make the October show. Now, if someone were to release a high end RTR GSV in maroon and past liveries....
  18. The first Mk2 is the restaurant coach.
  19. Pics on Facebook of 073 in the paint shop, Looks like it will re enter traffic in the IR livery. The IR livery launched 30 years ago this year.
  20. It depends, in later years they were all nearly turned to be on the same side. Ideally half rake one side and half the other for even distribution of ballast.
  21. A rare shot too. 081 was only supposed to haul the train from Dundalk to Connolly then 216 to take it on from there. 216 and 081 got mixed up in Dundalk on Saturday night which lead to this strange situation.
  22. Got mine over the weekend (thanks again very much Rich) and they are amazing wagons. The detail is top tier and the small wagons have a nice weight to them too with the ballast loaded. Well worth the wait and the price without question for anyone still on the fence about these. I'm even more excited to get my hands on the bubbles and the Taras look like they will raise the bar even higher.
  23. That's the one I was on about. I think that would look great if IE rolled out one like that and give the 071 the A designation they missed out on.
  24. Looks even shorter than that Dave. It's a proper cut and shut botch job from what I can tell. You can see the split join on the roof profile pic.
  25. An 071 in Black n Tan 141 livery would be sweet.
