    Keeping my fingers crossed that we might see an early 20’ x 8’ B&l containers. B& I liner train approaching, Limerick Junction North, Co. Tipperary. (nli.ie)

    They look great Arran .

    WRENNEIRE would be a good place to start he might know a man ………..

    There is a lot of rolling stock preserved in various liveries but this is the first one in B&T considering how long that livery was in use 1961 -1987 is nice to see a coach turned out in it finally.

    Four Wheeled and six wheeled heating vans had a very short service life compared to the Dutch and BR vans , happily IRM are doing a brake version of the Park Royal so that means you can run your New Park RoyalS and MM cravens with a brake .

    Looks stunning in the original Black and Tan livery .

    While we have discussed many times the feasibility of doing GSV both Dutch and BR versions I wonder would there be a market for doing one in DCC with sound and lights both tail and interior one’s working, this would be in the price range reflected in what it is .

    The Park Royal’s share the same 61’6” underframe and commonwealth bogies as the 2419-2422 Buffet Cars unfortunately the numbers required to produce such a model may not be there to make a one off viable.

    Originally they would have run with ordinary brake vans and tin vans with steam locomotives providing heat pre 1963 , they would have run with four wheel and six wheel heating vans in the diesel era then Dutch vans and BR Mk 1 vans and 32xx BGSV vans providing heat and power for TL fitted coaches . By the early 1980’s pretty much all the Park Royal’s would have been converted from Battery / Dynamo lighting to TL with 220v power.

    No they were banned from the lines with 90mph running due to their construction from the mid eighties so they would not have been in Kildare on revenue earning services. Not to jump to conclusions but this underframe and bogies were also shared on the laminates and other coaches like parcel vans and buffet cars so the future is very bright indeed …………..

    Secondary services Outer Dublin suburban, Cork-Cobh , Limerick-Rosslare, Limerick-Ballybrophy and Ballina Branch .

    Glad to see IRM doing Park Royal’s as their next or project .
  14. flange lubricator
    Great choice plenty of variants and liveries and a huge gap in the rolling stock range for anyone covering the Irish scene from 1950’s to 1990’s.
  15. flange lubricator
    Yes nice that everyone has a different opinion and can express it
  16. flange lubricator
    Yes your correct the model is PDR1A1 Metsec/ CIE H74D or D car the model is D602 which was built at Spa road by Van Hool McArdle , CIE built D1-D521/23 , VHM built D522-554/524 , 555-602 in 1973 , D602 was the last Metsec CIE D , VHM then built the AN68 D603/604 - 840 1974 on .

    Yes they are tad expensive but having purchased one of the earlier D class buses all I can say is they are a stunning model they are limited production runs hence the price they and come in a presentation box too.
  18. flange lubricator
    Nothing like a photo
  19. flange lubricator
    Hopefully IRM will eventually release B4 and B5 bogies in a 5’3” version as an accessory the same as the ones they are using on their forthcoming Mk2b/c’s .
  20. flange lubricator
    Perhaps Shawplan for wipers Phillip Shawplan - Fittings

    Roses are red violets are blue if you buy any more railway models your wife is likely to divorce you.
  23. flange lubricator
    The Park Royal coaches would be a great one to do as they span the period 1955 to 1990 with many liveries Silver , Green , Black and tan and IR B&T with two white stripes , also many variants Suburban, mainline , Guard/ brake, Snack car etc
