  1. OK, THAT's IT! I'VE HAD ENOUGH!! I'M LEAVING THIS SITE IF WE DON'T GET SOME CIE BUILT STOCK TO GO WITH THE EARLY A CLASS (God knows how many likes this is going to get, what HAVE I done!.... )
  2. Excellent! Now about that rolling stock, strike while the irons hot and all that .... (milk gets sour you know, unless its non-IRM, but there's no demand for that cause it's 5h!t3)
  3. maybe post one or two if there is anything interesting in there? How did you resolve the scanning issue in the end?
  4. So when did they get the snails again. In photos it looks like the were more than paint, more like fitted to the side of the loco but I might be wrong since they would likely have remained there if so
  5. You have got to be kidding me, Noel! it's barely been commissioned and so much other stuff to do. There's the MV Hibernia and a lineside model of Carlisle pier first surely! Sure, you'll have no room for it on Tara Junction anyway
  6. Very interesting to see the railcar, only ever saw that in model form. Assume its the railcar itself which accounts for the bumpy ride rather than the track. Any audio video uploaded to the site is hard to get rid of once you hit save (I think) Don't accidentally mix in any personal videos now
  7. Longer locomotives currently prohibited on this section
  8. 1960s, date uncertain Some lovely shots once again, Ernie. There's a slight inconsistency on the dates on two photos of A15. I wonder when it was actually reliveried into the lined green? 4 Jun 1961
  9. Possible solution on this thread. I need to fit some myself hence my interest
  10. Just wondering if you have actually used this? It does seem to have back EMF Does this one work well, install easily , no wires showing? Looks like it has a small stay alive so hopefully no light flickering?
  11. Agree with OB if you have that option. One of the other threads on the Ploughs highlighted this flickering issue probably because is 4 wheel and light relative to a bogie loco. I don't know if there were any decoder recommendations made, maybe check the DCC forum?
  12. Do you ever feel like the railways had a relatively greater importance and were better equipped to cope then than now?
  13. I have an IRM shipment that has been stuck in Miami for 10 days already. Stephen looked into this and its due to a shortage of drivers to take the shipments any further (so apparently not some importation nonsense in this case) I knew about this shortage but it's hard too believe they're just sitting there along with many others. More worryingly there is significant concern that the global supply chain is reaching a critical point, a collapse of which would be very disruptive to put it in its best light.
  14. Very well deserved especially for such a new company to the modeling scene A testament to attention to detail I would say Its a shame there seems to be little recognition by Hornby of the Irish aspect of the business though
  15. My shipment of vehicles left Dublin with DHL on September 23 and has been stuck in Miami since September 25. No word from DHL or DHL express, I don’t know what the difference is. This happened on a DHL shipment previously where they just sent it back to IRM without a word. Impossible to find out anything from them. I hope this is not a sign of things to come with my A class shipments
  16. 69-772-735 in NIR suburban livery and IR logos on cab front and coach sides, Arklow 1988 (other sets were 68-761-737 and 86-xxx-740, I can't remember the third). The IR branded 69 trio spent quite a lot of tine on the Cork-Cobh line 735 at Bray, sets were in service 1987-90 Sidings at Connolly. Single IR set of Points alway at the 'leading' end of the coaches on the left side (both directions)
  17. Probably worth watching this on Youtube and noting some suggestions in the comments section also
  18. Hang on, the container is not full! Did they forget to put in the laminate stock?
  19. Just wanted to remind everyone that the best way to run your silver A class is double headed
  20. yea, it didn't look right but had to know
  21. The rules regarding VAT and importation are pretty well established in some statute, I'm sure. Based on what is being stated in this thread An Post would by a preponderance of the evidence likely to be in contractual breach due to its failure to correctly and fairly execute its obligations, without adequate remedy, redress or financial compensation to a large unknown number of users. The bottom line being the most important component of this to An Post is where appropriate resolution should be sought in the form of a class action as individual actions will not yield any satisfactory outcome ... just sayin' like
  22. Was supposed to be done before 1pm today, didn't happen as usual so I missed the Webinar. Time zones ....
