    I like how an LMS Antrim coast advert is right next to one about Japan

    Yep, Twitter worked like a treat. Twas actually only about 70 customs on a €270 model. ids say if your intending to order anything from the UK for the next 4 ish months get it now, they are up the walls with work

    Nice display in marks models cork

    I have given up on railmatch 307 early multiple unit green for now because one 15ml tin of paint costs 30 euros to ship im going to give humbrol 2 emerald green gloss from marks . Which will more then likely look like the wrong green, But it is very like the post 1956 CIE green.

    I’ve been waiting 4 days for an sms/email/letter from them. might give this Twitter trick a go! My silverfox railcars are getting dusty in there sorting office and I owe them about an A class worth of customs charges (thanks brexit)

    We have progressed a small bit since the initial bit of this thread. But upon realising that he would likely have to make up the chassis from complete scratch. We shelved the project in the meantime I do have (most!) of the SSM Bandon tank kit. With the same idea of just lobbing a chassis under it so no need to buy any motor or wheels or any of that…..or at least in my mind at the time

    Might be best to leave it for a while. My fella spent a long time bollocking around with fitting chassis to loco shells with the Bandon tank (which I still need to try out a Fowler 4F chassis under!) it was just getting depressing so we stopped development for a bit. You may never come back to it, but don’t get rid of it. Start out something else on your to do list in the meantime

    Add insult to injury by calling them class 28s on the box. And call it a day!

    It might be the Mandella effect. Although it is an odd exclusion. Does anyone remember what livery A3r was in when it was supposedly up?

    Cheers to the warehouse team

    A30 and A46 look like a good match together! Surely my A30 is due this week at this stage I spose IRM auta put the name of this thread into all caps, for those who don’t get the message! it’s quite in this case as A46 was the only loco to have the dark lined green livery (I think) and IRM said they won’t be repeating any running numbers if a Re-Release ever were to happen in years to come. (And to be fair. From a business standpoint that’s the only way to do it)
  12. Westcorkrailway
    To be fair, we all had fair warning that when there gone, that’s it. im sure at this early stage a private dealer or marks still has them
  13. Westcorkrailway
    464, 90 and 201 were repainted black 3 down, many many more to go
  14. Westcorkrailway
    Keep that cast handy lads, i see a good key chain opertunity!

    How was the one on A1’s box made?
  16. Westcorkrailway
    009 narrow gauge stuff confirmed
  17. Westcorkrailway
    Your parcel from Dublin to limerick will go via coleraine, Copenhagen, Dortmund, ze Brugge, cherbourg, ballydehob, rosslare, Liverpool, cobh………… some of the bus eireann routes are guilty of it too for the most part when IRM ship stuff, tis there within the day

    It’s too bad the owner has tried to flog these on for mad prices, I just don’t understand how I missed them when I went in the greenway! in a world where I had unlimited funds. these two would be behind no.90 on the DCDR. But these will most likely be left there forever. Maybe getting these knackered coach bodies to cork is within reason
  19. Westcorkrailway
    Currently you guys are in a race with my Silverfox AEC railcars as “who will arrive first”. With this announcement ids say it’s neck and neck !
  20. Westcorkrailway
    Amen to that . Mostly 1960s oriented with a huge percentage of that going to west cork!
  21. Westcorkrailway
    Small terminus like kinsale, courtmacsherry and Baltimore on the CBSC spring to mind
  22. Westcorkrailway
    Amen, by the time the website was set up. The version my layout requires (earliest version) was sold out. Understandable if it’s a one time run though.
  23. Westcorkrailway
    I was thinking that. I assume anything past 3 in my transfer pack is effectively useless! would 2 or 3 have been used for the standard class?
  24. Westcorkrailway
    Another question that I need to ask, what to the numbers on the coaches represent? For instance this CBSCR coach has all 3’s but some have 2’s or 1’s, some are mixed and some even seem to have no number at all.

    If you’re legally blind and squint, It looks a bit like a Jeep in GNR blue!
