    I think B131 handrail or not question is becoming like the third secret of Fatima at this stage . We may have to get the pope to intervene.

    Very "Fred Dibnah " all you need is a traction engine in the yard to drive it .

    Great Stuff love to see some more pictures especially B131
  5. flange lubricator
    It now appears that neither B125 or B131 have handrails fitted ?

    I would hate to be described as a rivet counter much less a barrel counter but interestingly enough the first wagon is a 42' flat (LP) with five beer cages , the second is the 47'6"(modified LX) Flat with six cages of beer .

    I think the one in Brian Flanagans picture is as built the other ones are in service with repairs carried out on the sides perhaps

    If I remember correctly they put the chopped up telegraph poles in the fert wagons

    An interesting detail I have recently come across 001 had its roof painted black in those early shots of the supertrain, Looking at the IRRS Flickr site there is an early photo of 183 and 187 deptarting Cork in supertrain livery and the center roofs on both locos look like they are painted black too which is a new one on me .

    With all of the fabulous wagons we have had thus far , ballast , cement , fert , 42’ liners , Guinness and taras the 22’ flats would be the “missing link” on the freight front .
  20. flange lubricator
    I was eagerly awaiting these being released, at some point , hopefully IRM will do a project 22’ they could sell them in 3’s with 20’ bell containers, asahi , coal , oil , grain , Guinness, tar , to name a few .

    Would love too see the 27301=27794 series22'6" flats produced , same as in the lovely pictures above of the Asahi wagons .

    Yes very interesting companies like triton can’t keep up with demand https://www.freightwaves.com/news/chinese-container-factories-sold-out-until-february
  23. flange lubricator
    Add to that all shipping dates from China are being strecthed in every area , there is even a shortage of shipping containers in that part of the world to add to this . https://www.metroshipping.co.uk/news/container-shortages-in-china/#:~:text=Port operations have been severely,of equipment back to China. They might have to get C rail on the case!!.
