  1. I hope everyone at IRM towers is busy putting A classes in there boxes. A mind numbing job but a necessary one no less
  2. Looks just like the pictures! side note: while they did go to skibbereen and clonakikty. The A’s never got to bantry….but I’m sure no one would notice if one got to yours!
  3. To be fair, that is probobly why you see the green and silver liveries not sell as well as the orange counterparts. In terms of RTR stock well……there isint a whole pile. Obviously I’m a bit bias but I can’t wait for more of some of the stuff from tonight’s IRRS presentation (for those who could attend) to become available in model form hoplefully one day but for now, I have to get back to re-spraying hornby open wagons grey and trying to get Bachman LMS coaches in CIE green for a lot of money!
  4. Where is my Cork and macroom inspection car…..Surely there is a demand
  5. I tried to get in touch but i never got a response unfortunatly. another WCR modeller rookie has suggested I just train myself up with card kits and plastic kits, he actually managed to start the kit but was not able to finish it I’ll make do with what I’ve got, I still need to try put a Fowler 4F chassis under this yolk!
  6. I don’t see many of the west cork locos being made in RTR, they just don’t have the same pull buisness wise a a V Class I’ve had my eye on it for a while, considering my Bandon tank kits been sitting for a long time. unless I can find a builder or a pre owned one, 552/559 will have to wait a bit however if IRM would kindly care to make J26’s
  7. chances are I won’t be able to even afford 1 drink after pre-ordering all variants of the (insert CIE steam loco here) which likely Dosent fit my layout at all
  8. I’ll admit my Park Royal prediction was way off in retrospect… The party starts if a CIE steam locomotive is announced If a certain 4-6-0 tank engine gets announced, the drinks are on me
  9. I wonder if a new locomotive will be announced by the time the year is out we have already had mark 2’s and those busses with the fantastic locomotive livery or even more freight stock? Speculation overdrive
  10. Rumour has it that A39R with a single 42 flat is waiting….
  11. Shame, I was hoping for it to arrive close to the A class, last time I was told between October and December 2021, but that was back in April or may and circumstances may have changed Though with scracthbuilding that’s involved and getting hands on a Bachman 150 class etc it’s understandable only real issue is that 12 months ago, I would not have had to pay vat and now I do
  12. I’m still waiting on some AEC railcars I ordered some 12 months ago. Unfortunatly it will be charged like an order taken now
  13. This is why my SSM kit has been sitting on the shelf for Yonks, fantastic building!
  14. I must say I am a fan of controlling a layout with a represented (even miniaturised) lever frame but I’m sure someone has done that before

  15. A small bit poetic that it will be almost exactly 3 years since initial announcement
  16. AEC railcars are absolutely gorgeous. Love the colour
  17. Saw a picture of 212 in vic Barry’s with just the cab left. Someone had cut the “212” out presumably because someone asked to preserve it. Always to know if it’s still around.
  18. Coming in the second runAlong with Galway livery 001 Class and these liveries which definitely existed and definetly is not photoshopped and put together by northernblue109 on flickr
  19. I knew someone would do this sooner or later question is, is this thread going to be Banter A Class variants for the next 10 days my CB&SCR A Class thinks so
  20. Perhaps you can have mine, it fell off the layout, complete write off so will happily provide spares……
  21. My vision was a broken Citroen van. With the van driver on strike I drove through Paris once, north wall to them is a small siding
  22. If it’s struggling to get through Germany….what about France
  23. *breaking news* Europol raids house in Germany today after a tip off from Irish informant all they found was 200 odd cases of model trains more to follow
