  1. Now thats the job Hopefully this website will host many more irish models to come Are the brakevans out?
  2. I think a green line along the side above the snail would have gone a long way to making them neater. Might be something for those buying A46 to pull
  3. Leaked GSWR 4 wheel coaches from IRM https://www.ebay.ie/itm/255038374370?hash=item3b6178c1e2:g:No4AAOSwdpxg3ylh
  4. Better yet, a steam locomotive pushing the the "new" diesal into a siding. Good shunting idea
  5. Will look good next to the maebh model coming 2026 A30 silver looks propperly good, shame that the prototype looked like that for about 20 minutes!
  6. Reminds me of southern green! To be honest, id take an A class in olive green if it meant getting a green A class. Such a colourful class of diesel (albeit in the early days, it may As well have been black until 1963!) Any hints on what A42 looks like now?
  7. Quite hard to make out the A42. But the green is certainly different.....all the quirks you have to overcome when developing a locomotive from across the globe!
  8. How ironic would it be if the loco carrying the A's broke down due to the engine failing!
  9. There is the one i ordered! Finish looks much better then the comutor models wow!
  10. Because black n tan livery was way easier to keep clean the liveries before or since. Not to mention CIE were good at keeping them clean when they did get dirty
  11. Salt water plus silver paint made C202 look terrible after. Maybe if twad done again they could put it in green or black n tan. There is no space but i could imagine whitehead doing a job like with the CDR tank and putting next to the hunslet and sulzer inside the culta
  12. There is a 50/50 chance that its still put there, nevermind that its a shell with bogeys Shame cause i wanted it to be restored as static display and put in West Coekk, at the moment we could never take on ITG's C226 for multiple reasons. And thats the only way any loco will go there (discounting the ruston 88ds "steam engine" that we already have)
  13. 227 is (kind of but not really) preserved
  14. Lucky for you, I sent the KGB into IRM towers and got this image from them.....or i got it from a youtube video! I dont think we have seen to much of the green variant A class so nice to see, a painted example exists!
  15. Speaking of disguises........ Missed opertunity for a special edition A class!
  16. Seeing the A class sample's on the display cabinet was a treat. With updates galore on IRM/Accurascale. 10 days until all our A class locos are ready to be shipped supposedly!

  17. When i think of interesting station layouts, i always think of killarney, the IR logo station layout!
  18. C226 ITG special edition, all funds going towards the restoration of C226's long restoration project And one for B113 And G601!
  19. If ive learned anything its that buying irish models brand new is a really sound investment
  20. I noticr the wasp design on the roof, i see these the odd time. Were they a short design experiment?
  21. I pre-ordered A30 a few days ago, granted ids say there is a good few of them still around for a while
  22. Well done to all involved! A fantastic achievement for Robert and something that all modellers including some doing English layouts would enjoy. I'll order one for Kinsale junction!
