  1. IRM have privately told me the ship left China at 11:59 this morning, and is due at IRM Towers at 00:01 on 1.4.23. The shipment will be in two containers in complementary liveries.
  2. Congratulations on another great release. Must be an all-time record to have them all sold out by 12 noon on release day! I want one in MGWR lined green, and also in GNR blue & CDRJC red for Eamon Ryan’s new Sligo - Donegal - Derry-Hi line.
  3. Easy to fix - saw chassis in half & take a centre section out, glue back together. Yes, far too long as it is….
  4. I’d be more interested in IRM here!
  5. Is it still swamped in pop-ups?
  6. That’s the man! I’ve tracklaying to do first, so after that I’ll need to consult all this!
  7. Update - just looked at that technique - very good indeed.
  8. Very many thanks, Mark! I’ll check that out. I can’t claim credit for the scenery, though I intend to do the next lot largely myself. It was done by Kevin McIntosh and captures perfectly the sort of remote and neglected type of outpost of the railway I’m trying to portray.
  9. A very interesting point, yes - I don’t know, but Seagoebox of this parish might?
  10. Those are absolutely excellent models! Excellent info… Minor point; I think the first 2.6.4T “Jeeps” were 1946…..
  11. Your walls are an absolute stroke of genius. I will employ that method when I get round to scenery, and no need to paint it!
  12. ???? Wow - no idea!
  13. The thing about IRM is that it has evolved into a broader thing than just modellers. My first interest is railway history, with modelling a close second, and I find plenty of general Irish railway interest here. I would simply say to the mods, well done, thank you & keep it up.
  14. Very impressive! Good to see more NCC / UTA stuff here.
  15. And Chapters in Dublin has reopened…
  16. Spudfan and Lambeg Man; I could not agree more. On principle, even without such experiences as above, I would rather do without something than order it from this parasitic, blood-sucking company. I never pass by any opportunity to put people off making Bezos and his revolting ilk any richer. He should be taxed at 99.999%. That's MY rant over.
  17. Anything that ISNT Amazon is good….
  18. As far as IRM are concerned, the more bombardment the better!
  19. BosKonay, THEY run on the cloud. You run on the silver lining! Yes, RMWeb is completely unusable due to constant pop-ups.
  20. My home insurance is currently up for renewal. Asked them their opinion in covering stuff worth (figure plucked from the air) €15,000. Answer: depending on excess and company provider, anything from €40 to €100+ extra on top of normal household quote. (My other half doesn’t read this, so I hope that I’m safe….)
  21. Precisely! Common sense, too. Try telling that, though, to Wee Doddsy (remember him?), Sir Sanctimonious Jeffrey, Curry Gregory and Edwin the Poots, with sawdust interior…..
  22. Very many thanks, Broadstone, much appreciated!
  23. Very true….!
  24. Unless Boris Mogg-Farage and the rabid right wing press, the Daily Fail & Tory Telegraph decide to “take back control” by leaving NATO! That’s a serious collection of letter boxes! In a museum somewhere?
