  1. I stand corrected, thanks. Stephen
  2. I think that would be rather difficult as Hattons no longer exists, hence the involvement of Rails to complete matters. Stephen
  3. So, does that mean you’ve paid for something that’s not been delivered? They’re clearly unconcerned about two versions of your order, one you got from Hattons and one Hattons sent them. Stephen
  4. There’s no reference to them on the website. Stephen
  5. More nothing more that, sold out. Stephen
  6. I’ve paid for one so let’s see if it arrives tomorrow. Stephen
  7. I’m intrigued by the dropped platform by the crossing, not seen very often. Stephen
  8. It’s amazing how stupid some people can be these days. There is, therefore, the need to dot every ‘i’ and cross every ‘t’, sadly! Stephen
  9. Love the railcar set. Stephen
  10. Like many railways, the promoters would have had high expectations! Stephen
  11. The top modellers are artists who create a 3D moving picture. I am always in awe of them. Stephen
  12. Over here in the UK they will be classed as statutory consultees, meaning that they will be consulted about loads of things nothing to do with them. Annoying but that’s the way it is. Stephen
  13. In addition to rebuilding proposals, there are a number of completely new lines proposed: 1) Belfast to Newry, 2) Drogheda to Dublin, and 3) Hazelhatch to Portarlington. We can but dream. Stephen
  14. I don’t think it’s any better on the big island. Many times I’ve posted more than one item to the same address at the same time, usually returning goods I might add, and Royal Mail delivers them at vastly different times. Stephen
  15. AEC/ Park Royal railcar I believe. What are you going to use as the power unit, Hornby GWR railcar? Stephen

    Since Brexit we’ve had to learn all about customs and importation. Stephen

    It’s strange how much ‘suffering’ people have to endure in order to receive their IRM purchases. Living in the UK, or Brexitstan as it is known in some quarters, I have experienced no problems whatsoever. Is that the experience of others in the UK? Stephen
  18. I think we should all be very grateful for the effort that IRM is putting into producing model of the Irish railway scene. They are a small company and are doing their very best in trying circumstances. Sure, I would love to be first on their delivery list but I know that my purchases are on their way. Have a good day. Stephen
  19. My two Lima class 201’s would run quite happily on code 75 Peco streamline track. Stephen
  20. Taking up Noel’s point about the mode of delivery, if I remember correctly, my order said DHL would deliver but here in the UK it was our dear old Royal Mail. Would anyone from IRM care to comment? Stephen What Kadees are you using? Stephen

    This is, truly, a sad day for Irish railway modellers. John’s models filled a void that will be difficult to fill. Thanks. Stephen
  22. The idea of Manorhamilton as a junction is an interesting one. If the big companies had become involved, we could have seen Great Northern trains to Sligo and Midland trains to Bundoran. Imagination is a wonderful thing. Stephen
  23. I think we will find that the failure to build the GNR(I)line from Sligo to Bundoran lead to the SLNCR line from Enniskillen to Sligo. The more direct line between Sligo and Bundoran would have been interesting. Stephen
  24. What’s the little one in the right hand corner? Stephen
  25. I’ll be sorry to see no more of your videos. Is there any chance of saving the layout for re-erection at a future date? Stephen
