Kernow have this 141 on offer https://www.kernowmodelrailcentre.com/p/89473/MM0154A-Murphy-Models-Class-141-Diesel-154-in-IR

I joined the ITG as a member and get the Mail as part of the membership package. cheers, Keith

The latest issue of The Irish Mail from the ITG has an urgent fundraising call to assist with relocating their locos from Moyasta to Downpatrick. Anyone wishing to assist financially can find a donate page on the ITG web-site (www.irishtraction.com). (edit, see below!) cheers, Keith

It'll be for us folks up here!

excellent, I like the wagon plates! cheers, Keith

I'd settle for a brake van

Perhaps an indication of the differing levels of product interest can be gauged looking at rmweb and the Accurascale/IRM posts there and responses to these, the Hunslets have 5.6k views and the 800 class 5.5k views, both seem the highest of the Irish IRM products of late but the Banana Vans thread has 53.4k views by way of comparison! Rmweb is mainly inhabited by UK based modellers, though not entirely of course. Cheers, Keith

I'll be there in the morning

I'll be there! It's my local and like to get some purchases, especially as model shops around these parts are scant nowadays I need some scenic stuff and will probably seek out the odd wagon or two cheers, Keith

Nowadays it's the other way around

It's a pity @Mol_PMB that 'rail n sail' isn't made as easy as it should be, it's the same trying to get from NI across to GB too, not sure why Stena Birkenhead ferries aren't part of 'rail n sail' as at least the port is near a railway station! Yes fair enough, if it's a holiday then sleeping overnight on a ferry floor is not going to be a fun experience.

From Manchester how about taking 'rail n sail' via Holyhead and taking the overnight boat to Dublin? Or driving to Holyhead and taking the ferry over, there's loads of sailings.

yes I was a bit suprised to see these appear in such quantities, and it seems the upped price is possibly putting off sales judging by the 4-coach sets still being available (less so the single coaches), eg for CIE Green, 200 notes for 4: https://railsofsheffield.com/products/hattons-h4-46pack-1701-hattons-originals-genesis-pack-of-4-coaches-in-cie-dark-green-6t-6t-6cl-6bt

A 141 here, wrong livery for me https://clarkrailworks.com/collections/new-arrivals/products/murphy-models-oo-mm0154a-ir-class-141
