Here are a couple that I posted before of one of the MK2b FK buffet cars , interestingly enough 4106 Mk2c FO is still in existance at Kilmeadan and 4402 ex Mk2b FK at Moyasta.

Perhaps this might wet the apatite 202 at Portarlington with the Athlone ex Heuston summer 2003 the Coach behind the loco is 4112, the second coach is a Mk2c (Ex FO) the third coach is a MK2b ex(FK),

no unfortunately not im afraid

5106 Full First

Converting these coaches was simply a matter of changing seats and other internal fixings curtains etc no structural changes were necessary.

perhaps this should be in a different thread not to take away or confuse it from the new Nir Mk2 thread ex BR mk2's - Questions & Answers - Irish Railway Modeller

Wow missed that so the three pack of Irish rail 410x series at some point in IE/IR livery ???

Have had a good look at these and wow what a coach, details like bump stops on the doors are a super detail that is a very small but important part of the MK2b look. I think these coaches will certainly be up there with the best MK2's on the market and definitely worth the money . Unfortunately for me NIR is not my scene /era so I wont be participating on this occasion , I am quitely hoping that that IRM will do some MK2c's in particular Mk2c FO which ran on IR as 4103,4104,4105,4106,4107and as NIR 903 these along with a MK2b FK which is being offered by Accurascale reconfigured would do Irish Rail 4109, 4401 & 4402 perhaps its too much wishful thinking on my part .

That would be a great choice , lots of livery varations and versions snack car , passenger , brake, even ambulance.

Drum Roll and trumpets too...............

I would imagine with the arrival of the IRM A class there will plenty of surplus SF/ Q kits A class locos about to provide ample opportunity to be re purpose them into other A class variants like A16 .

Is this the same loco here he may have sold it twice https://touch.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/murphy-models-class-201-nir-livery-mm0209-oo-scale/23939468

In that case it would be the re engined A's hauling the Crossley one's.

This is certainly the exception to the rule , I have bought and sold with other members on this site and found all to be very trustworthy .

we will have to read between the lines of this announcement before next one

Your very welcome .

Dropped in to Bray and picked up MM210 from Dave , nice to get one at a very reasonable price.

And the seats were very similiar to the the ones in the BR Mk2d 1st

1149 and 1150 were fitted out with 1st class two plus one seating carpets and curtains on the windows they were proper 1st class coaches http://rcts.zenfolio.com/coaching-stock/irish-railways-cie/eA25CE8DE the caption is incorrect it says a Mk2 its actually a Craven

Well if you were being pedantic you would only run them with a GSV (Generating Steam Van ) .

And Cravens with battery boxes which were an omission on the MM non TL Cravens.
