Imagine if Jim Davidson joined the group, he'd be over the moon and think he was back in the eighties. Rich,

Jaysus Dive I thought Boutros Boutros Ghali had come back to life. You live in the states don't you. We should nominate you for the Nobel Peace Prize you could be added to the list of recent winners, Obama, Gore, and Jimmy Carter. I still can't see how a Deltic is included in that list seeing that it is aimed at modelling the Irish scene. Rich,

Agree Jason the 26 and 2700's served a purpose and they served it well. Rich,

Even though the 2700's replaced the Cravens on the Waterford Limerick route (which at the time was hard to take) I did get to kind of like them. The MK111's were the most comfortable coaches I have ever travelled on and I do miss them especially running behind an 071. Rich,

Very promising they really capture the look of these wonderful and unique locos. It's fantastic to know that soon we will have all 4 Illinois GM's modelled to such a high standard. Mr Murphy has pulled off another top model and deserves all the respect and plaudits he is due. Rich,

This has to be one of the most pointless threads I have seen on here. It would make total sense if a manufacturer set up the survey. Any chance Fran, Pat, Richie, Stephen can enlighten us as to when IRM will be producing a Deltic. Didn't think they ran in Ireland Rich,

Ned Flanders would be more apt than Homer for our anti yellow man .

More yellow loveliness Noel. Although someone on here won't like it. Keep em coming, Rich,

Looking fantastic Jason I like the colour on the shed too. Rich,

Looking at these pics of the model and Noels pics has reminded me of how much I love these wagons. They will look equally as impressive running empty with all the excellent detail of the skeletal deck and underframe. Rich,

Fantastic looking scene Fran. Are the cranes the Heljan ones that were released many moons ago. Rich,

Got to love those 20ft containers. I remember the mail arriving in Plunkett in a 20 footer around 6 in the morning and being collected by An Post. Rich,

Not a bad idea Jim and the layout room would always smell nice. Rich,

Were the pallets shrink wrapped or heat shrink wrapped Fran. There were withdrawn sets parked up in Waterford West for years near one of the spans for the Suir (Red Iron Bridge) rail bridge I should have and never did get round to taking some pics and regret it now. Rich,

Lovely jubbly I'll be having a full rake. Rich,

There is a blanking plate on some cad images I have seen. Rich, Any chance someone took a pic of the 121 nose to cab with 184. Rich,

It's called humour and Seamus is well known for having a good sense of humour. Rich,

It looks to capture the 121 uniqueness shape and detail wise which should be what sets the standard for a model. It's a given that all locos should have sound mechanics and run great straight from the box in this day and age. Although a small few rogues will always escape from the factory. Any of the three MM Illinois built locos I have are spot on in every department and no doubt these will be the same. As Fran has said the design work gone into this model is of the highest standard. If the area between the grilles remains see through on the sides it will be epic. I always wondered would it be possible to remove some of the chassis block on a 141-181 to achieve that effect. Can't wait for 124 and 134 they are going to be special. Rich,

What an amazing looking machine and such an important part of the railway. When you are working with these babies it is said by staff that you are working in the guts of the railway. Rich,

All the fantastic detail and skeletal chassis means I'll be running some empties just to show it off. Top work men. Rich,

I'd be up for a few in IE livery. Still one of my favourite models and has been setting the standard for 11-12 years. Rich,

Nice to see it has developed so quickly the weedsprayer will be a cracking model. Rich,
