I successfuly purchased a nice rake of six ballast wagons in weathered NIR livery. Received promptly and are now on my layout.

A railway is an example of active travel connectivity.

Will 'Belfast to Cork Enterprise headboards be available for the 800 class?

Thanks for the update. Fully understand that the packaging has to be right. Thst's one lovely looking coach. Will there be any 'Dicky Park Royals' going cheap to go with my 'Dicky Taras'?

There was at least one 70 class mule in Crosshill quarry that contained asbestos. It was involved in the crash at Hilden 25th March 1983.

If anyone says your model is wrong, you can say "wait and see"

RIP Paddy. Sad news indeed.

How much for the green K1 and three coaches set?

Bit by bit but slowly like a train that is stopping at every station.

You have been busy Tony. Nice work.

Indeed What did you learn today Tony?

Every day is a learning day.

Why not? Has Rails confirmed this?

Welcome Mac

Jonathan. Wee Willie McCormack and Baldy Maunsell would not be impressed. Societas Hibernica actorum ferriviariorum referit.

And there was me thinking the 89 was one of the 80 class lol Photo from Facebook

@ttc0169 not everyone's wish list is the same. IRM have to make a judgement call on what to manufacture.

My own painting of the event.

With the delivery of the IRM Hunslets getting closer, I thought it would be of interest to share this 1980 article from the Belfast Telegraph 45 years ago, about the kits by MIR and featuring a younger Yours Truly. The MIR team consisted of Ian McNally, Edgar O'Donnell, Colin McLeod, Brian Dorrian and Gerry Healey. The availiblity of MIR kits encouraged an increasing interest in modelling Irish prototypes. The growing base of Irish models encouraged Murphy Models and later Irish Railway Models, to produce high quality RTR locomotives and rolling stock. Ian McNally still sells MIR transfers etc on ebay.

08:00 to Dublin and 08:10 to Derry/Londonderry waiting to depart from Belfast Grand Central Station. Guess the year LOL
