My fault, the content is an import from an earlier DB, but the forum munged up the html (yes, that is a technical term ) I need to spend a few hours going through and cleaning it all up, right as soon as I get a few hours!

Bear in mind while a loco would be desirable, there are no shortage of them on the market at the moment, personally, my votes would go for - 121 - well underway by Sir Murphy, Patron Saint of Irish Modelling - A Class with all the bells and whistles - 22k 3 piece ( I know! I know!) - Cement Bubbles - Cement Bogies - Bagged Cement - 20' Flats - Beet Wagons
-
I think a 22k would be pretty awesome Done to the Rapido standard
-
Stunning job! Looks as good as a Murphy!

http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/content.php/253-4-Wheel-Bubble-Cement-Wagon-Drawing Would certainly a very pretty little thing be
-
The 20 foot flat would be an interesting one, being easily adapted to handle containers, bubbles and a range of modifications possible...

The poll is open for 1 week

I understand that the shop is still up and trading from an 'off high street' depot. I've always found Gareth excellent to deal with and only spoke to him a week or so ago. I don't see where the panic is coming from here - if you are waiting for custom work, just contact the store?
-
Typically with a crowdfunded project, there are no 'after it's produced' units available. Like the Rapido models APT, they are building the exact amount pre-ordered. The unit will not ever be 'for sale' after production, barring someone picking up the tooling for another run?

Interesting quote from that site: The bottom line is that Rapido will produce the model if we can generate 800 pledges, instead of the 1,000 DJM would have needed. Gives an indication of the commitment needed.

Added now, will see about moving the posts.... http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/forumdisplay.php/58-DCC-Electrics-and-Electronics
-
The simplest option to date would seem to be where you simply buy the loco(s) you want, in advance. Once enough have been sold, the production can commence...
-
Good suggestion , perhaps a sub-forum or a new top level forum for DCC / Electrics?
-
Just a reminder to please ensure you VOTE as well as give a wishlist ! Thanks!

We have 603 members, of whom 202 visited the site in the last month (defined as 'active' as a result) We do see a large amount of non signed-up traffic, which is normal enough, most members will read and lurk for (in some cases) months before joining.

Feel free to suggest here what you'd like to see made and we can run a subsequent poll

Poll created here http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/3767-Would-you-prepay-for-a-model?p=59117
-
Arising from the crowd funding thread, a quick poll and thread to determine, all else being equal, if people would be willing in principle to fund / prepay for a desirable model.
-
I'll see about adding a poll to gather numbers? I for one would happily support any such project. I've preordered Rapids hst for example and have zero trouble paying up for what undoubtedly will be s great model and good investment.
-
Sound chips mean you drive the loco like the real thing. You start the engine and move off. The engine revs and notches matching your speed and brakes squeak when you slow and stop.
-
What I did when using it was slot the track into the foam then glue the foam to the baseboard. That lets the foam keep a nice profile and shoulder and excellent noise reduction as te track 'floats' on the foam.
-
If using the ballasted foam, I'd highly recommend gluing the foam down rather than pinning the track, as the foam then looks squashed Otherwise looking excellent!

Wow Anthony -= you're absolutely spoiling us rotten!
