  1. Absolutely delighted with this announcement. Had the pleasure of seeing these at the Dublin show yesterday and the detail is stunning, the only problem is which one's to get. Quick question was there two types of blue livery and if yes are these both being done. Fantastic work lads.
  2. Even better again Signal Post, great directions, many thanks.
  3. Fantastic News Dave, and Great work by the two lads in securing additional parking, it means a lot to lads like myself travelling a fair bit to just park up and be stress free, job well done.

    Shop question

    Thanks Stephen, so the price we see is the price we pay on Accurascale website, makes things a lot easier.

    Shop question

    Good to know, is that the final price you pay or is there still customs charges, or any other related charges, apologies I haven't bought from the UK for a while, rate of exchange is pretty bad at the moment.
  6. Thanks very much for the reply Galteemore. Preservation at its best.
  7. Hi Tony, but late to this, same as above, my home insurance covers my collection, I did ask about this to be told one item over €2500 needs validation cert, or collection covered under contents, my insurance company is in Killarney. PM me if you need more information. Regards John.
  8. Sorry to go slightly of topic, did any of the spoil wagons survive into preservation or private ownership ! , be an awful shame if not.
  9. Superb Noel, the lighting effects are something else
  10. Now, that would be the ultimate wishlist, as well as the Hunslets I might add. Having said that, I have built, with more to do,the Provincial wagons spoil wagons (having watched the real one's growing up), and have thoroughly enjoyed building them, well done Leslie. A few years ago at one of the shows can't remember which one, their was someone, again can't remember who, they had two jeeps pulling a long take of spoil wagons, impressive to say the least.
  11. Cheers for that Flying Snail, sounds like a good plan, will go up Saturday and see how I Get on, really looking forward to the show now at this stage.
  12. Thanks very much Flying Snail for taking the time to reply, it was very helpful and much appreciated. looking at Google maps, which I never thought to do in the first place, the parking does seem very limited and I couldn't see much local parking, also after driving three hours from Kerry getting the Luas to the City centre then a bus followed by doing all that to Get home, does seem to look like a bit of an ordeal. PLEASE no-one take this the wrong way, it's just my initial observations and if anyone has any solutions (except stay at home then) for close by parking I'm all ears. Thank you.
  13. Evening All, could anyone please tell me what the new Dublin city Traffic Management System involves, as can I drive from the red cow down past Heuston station along the quays, past Connolly station then to the show, or are you diverted some other way of would it just be easier taking the M50 northbound then doubling back into the City, hope this makes sence, thanks lads .
  14. I suppose modelling Irish Railways is a niche within its self and modelling NIR is the proverbial niche within an niche, so a Hunslet or jeep would do it for me, really whatever the lads announce will do it for me, looking forward to the show.
  15. Thanks very much Fowler4f for your informative reply, speaker sounds like it's more than up for the job. Haven't bought a decoder yet, have looked at roads and rails as well as wheeltappers alright, things looking a bit pricey from UK at the moment, appreciate your help.
  16. Hi All. Does anyone know what type of speaker is in the mm 071s , I'm thinking of installing sound in one and wondering do they come with a fairly decent speaker just or would it need upgraded and to which type, excuse the novice questions, TIA. cheers John.
  17. Really Looking forward to this update.
  18. Stunning looking wagons, really spoilt for choice these days, two packs on order, wasn't going to miss out on these babies, unlike the grain wagons too slow to hit the button, great work once again lads .
  19. Nice one, your going to really like these wagons DJ.
  20. What exhibition is this Dave, must have missed this. Received my wagons a few days ago, have to say they are well up there,great detail with a good weighty feel to them and surprisingly the black livery really looks class, another winner, thanks lads .
  21. Brilliant, I walked straight into that one
  22. Just received my despatch email, they are on the way to Kerry, take heart lads, won't be long now.
  23. Couldn't have put it any better myself, well said, the coaches really stand out on this layout, well done. Did I miss the Dutch vans being released for these coaches
  24. I was just about to do an unboxing video against a clear blue sky for you, but realised it's raining in Kerry as well
  25. You definitely won't be disappointed Philip, they are pure class looking.
