Well if the good weather keeps up it might be cider from Clonmel !

You are looking are two completely different markets when you compare the Republic of Ireland and the UK, weather we like it or not Ireland is a high priced economy , higher wages , higher costs , higher Vat etc. What we do however lack among a lot of dealers here is a deal culture which is very much part of modern trade , perhaps retailers here would do better if they were prepared to offer a better priced based on increased numbers , example if you buy six we will do a special price etc . Very similar to IRM doing there bundle deals on wagons .

JM Design rtr GSR/Ranks Bulk Grain and Irish Standard Open Wagons
flange lubricator replied to Mayner's topic in News
Found this picture of a grain wagon from the O'Dea collection taken with the wagon missing its running gear following a derailment at the 46th mile box of the Sligo goods ,you can see the number 164xx and you can also see a faint flying snail still on this wagon in 1971 . http://catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000307730 -
The see thru grills are just one of big details but there are many small ones like the cut out footstep which was one of the many small modification's carried out on these locomotives during the service life on the railway system this shows a great attention to detail on these locos .
-
Would you consider making the collectors edition box available as an option for the other A classes , A1 is simpily not my era , but might be interested if available for one of the later ones.

As always oozing atmosphere love the mix of cattle wagon colours grey and red oxide .
-
Nice work GM171kk they are the earlier keg pallets they were lifted off the train and straight onto the lorry for onward's delivery to pubs
-
Nice job on the wagon here one in Cork looks like the bottom half is in red oxide
-
Nice picture of A19 with a covered H van which is 'fitted' for vacuum brakes I wonder had it come off a passenger train.
-
Here is a good picture of some Vac Brake versions one with 60M.P.H Brian Flanagan photo from flickr
-
Looks great Patrick I have three to do all you need is the transfer saying '60MPH and VAC Brake ' I find it incredible the thought that those wagons were past for 60 mph on the back of a passenger train , one can only imagine what the journey was like for the poor cattle .
-
And maybe they are going to fit sound chips

Here is another interesting one if you notice the open top black container to the left of the picture with the CIE broken circles on it , I think these were used for carrying scrap metal to Cork for many years used to be a regular to see some of them on the midday liner , they would be easy enough to reproduce using a kit from C rail containers and remove the top.
-
Here is a picture from a previous thread , with the same wagons which seem to be slightly oversized so are marshalled in between a 20' container .

189 was the first loco to haul them , then over the years 201's, 071's, 121's, 141's, 181's, pairs mixed pairs and even single 121's if that was your thing , but never an A .
-
The bogie Bulks were never hauled by the A class as they were air braked wagons the A class were never equipped for air braked trains (029 was as a trial ). Nice job on the wagons
