Any chance IRM are planning on releasing a RTR CIE brake van in the near to medium future ? I could see them doing a nice job with built in lit lamps.

Delighted to add my 3 beets to my mixed goods train(thanks to @leslie10646), looking forward to the flats arrival soon. Many thanks IRM.
Apologies for the stand in brake van.

Will these 20ft Bell containers attach properly to my IRM Lyons tea container wagon ? Apologies if it's a stupid question.

The 0-6-0 475 is lovely, what is it and where did you get it?

I just file the rail in a vice and keep comparing against the plan/drawing. Haven't found it a problem, but with plenty to do, a jig will certainly help.
Yeah that's what I've done too. I need to make about 20 more though! So I'm wondering would a jig hurry things up. Although I have about 4 different point types to make so I would need 4 different jigs so maybe I shouldn't bother going down the road of DIY jigs.

I've made my first hand made point in OO using code 100 rail and it works well. I've quite a few more to make for my layout and would like to obtain a jig for filing and soldering the vee such as @Mayner posted a picture of in his thread here:
Or could I maybe make my own jig? Out of a hardwood maybe? Has anyone done this?

@BosKonay do you know roughly when the new stock of MM mark2d EGV and Buffet car in IR livery will be arriving? I notice another retailer is also running low on their EGV stock and now I'm getting nervous of missing out a second time. This hobby is making me skittish. I may need some Prozac . Or an EGV.

Thanks Mayner for sharing your story, a very interesting modelling career. I also model US outline, in HO. I am currently building my second layout in a 2.5 X 4.3m garden shed. Here's a video 1 year in:

I would LOVE a few C Class locos. In silver, black with orange roundel , black n tan. Great looking little diesel.

In terms of cost, the NIR packs work out at €66.66 a coach, in a three pack, the Orange 4-packs are €67.50 a coach, and the Park Royals are individually €69.99 each. The MM Mk2d's are €59.99 each, but do not have on board lighting, or close coupling systems, etc. So it's all pretty much on par tbh.
Also we're down to just 6 versions still in stock - should we get more?

Get some more! I'd buy a egv and a buffet in IR livery if you got them back in stock. No other retailer gives the cash back rewards IRM does so it's slightly cheaper to buy from ye.

Are all the mark 2d's really sold out on IRM website? Seemed to happen overnight.

Thanks Murphaph. What about the composite coach for the 4 car rake instead of the first?

I'm planning on buying 4 of these coaches. Can anyone recommend a good 4 carriage rake? Representative of something slightly prototypical if that is possible for such a short rake. I was thinking of an 5603 EGV behind the loco, followed by a 5404 buffet car, a 5103 1st and a 5203 standard.

Lovely photo. If you gave anyone of those fellas a push they might start.

Again just for my own use but others might find them useful.
I've added timelines of CIE coaches and early freight, in the pages below the locos:

If any of the images I've added are inacurrate please do let me know.
