    Am sure they are making the necessary steps....... "Taxi....."

    Good to see the updates. Hope you're enjoying the build!

    Disagree - IRM have time and time again demonstrated their respect for their customer base so this comment is way off mark.

    Wee buns.

    Am sure IRM could handle all such nuances!

    Blue would be good! 171 might be more popular though from the historical angle, the V class were restricted to the GN mainline whereas the S had wider route availability as well as a wider range of liveries: GN green, GN black & GN blue as well as UTA lined black. The V class had only two liveries (open to correction!): black with original boiler and then the classic blue with belpaire boiler. Am sure they would have looked fab in the UTA lined black but I don’t think any of them carried that livery?

    3 days until the IRM announcement….. Steam or non-steam….what are we all thinking? My predictions (which have never been remotely accurate): C class if diesel S class or Jeep if steam Just hoping I have fingernails left by the weekend…… Also, I have really missed the countdown widget on the IRM website!

    I'd be keen on those too!

    A very nice livery on a very nice loco! Love the buffer beam detail in particular.

    Fantastic JB - love the curved rock cutting, reminds me of the one on the approach to Ballyshannon NG.

    Mine is on the way…..from Canada, via NZ!!! I bet the prototypes clocked up the miles as well! Thanks John @Mayner - looking forward to its arrival.

    Managed to get on the first train into Grand Central this morning, 09:05 from Finaghy arriving at 09:15 First impressions are - it’s superb, very spacious, and modern, and definitely much needed. Some photos below, will post videos shortly.

    Great atmosphere in that view - lovely stuff!

    Just wondering is there anyone on the forum here who could answer a question/request about the amazing model of Dundalk Works & The Boyne Viaduct?

    Kicking off the speculation: If diesel: C class (but is that ‘all new’ ) If steam: An RPSI loco

    I'll remain optimistic (admittedly without hard evidence!) that the Navan branch will eventually have life breathed into it again. Seems a pity to have all that infrastructure there for it just to be left to decay - although it wouldn't be the first time that happened.... Yip - great video.
