Well, it’s Friday again in that time zone. As long as they turn up complete and intact it’s all good, but they’re making me a bit nervous

Either of the birds would be fine with me

May are happy with the 2ft rule until something better comes along

Yeah, having an effing real J-O-B is such a drag. Imagine not being able to sit online like that

And.... same. I'm not in a great rush but when you don't know when they'll ship or guesstimate on intl. ship times it can be tricky to receive your parcel or not have it melt after delivery at the front door. Once, my wife has ordered some frozen goods which were delayed by a hurricane and arrived when we were out of town. Some models arrived at the same time and our kindly neighbor made sure they both made it to the freezer section in the garage Surprised that 'Steve'@DJ Dangerous hasn't take you up on phraseology, he's slacking

He does like that hat

I believe that the issue with the Irish coaches was systemic rather than sporadic based on the many examples I purchased myself. IRM would know how many bogies would need replacement for every customer based on their own order books. I presumed that they would eventually issue replacements rather than everyone having to make warranty requests which is a very inefficient process even for them. I have none of the UK coaches in question but surprised Accurascale didn’t already clarify your question. Again they should be able to issue the correct bogies in due course I would say.

and they're all gone

Free for some … been discussed previously. But I do have some points. How do I access their value at checkout? IRM ordering process for ex-EU is much simpler than having to email Marks to refund the VAT which should not have been charged to begin with

Don’t seem to be many pictures of the grain loading process unlike the beet haulage

I thought the was gonna be an update around the time of the Wexford show and thought I had missed out on that. Thanks for info

Any update on these?

FREe MOney, you use it for new IRM models!

Is the IRM product being shipped even in possession of a single courier company from pickup to delivery? This seems possible only if they operate their own road vehicles and planes. Are the products handled by the courier solely when loading and unloading at airports/containerized and secured prior to handling by a third party? and what is the situation at customs?

Arse! Previously, we had a countdown to a countdown! Which one is this? And where is the countdown , not visible on the site? Arse…, Feck! …., Fran is coming again

Ok, figured out you guys all left early for the Wexford Show. Patrick helped me get it all sorted and paid

OMG! I knew someone would recreate this in model form one day @derek near the end of their lives some of the GSWR (I think) 6wheelers were used to transport turf after the roofs were removed . This may have been during the Great Emergency @jhb171achill

I have an issue with a method of payment but have ben unable to contact IRM by Live Chat or telephone. What going on ? @BosKonay

Wait until Jan 2025 to see things really go down the tubes

I think you’re breaking your own rules here, with In Stock and PreOrder items, demonstrating our problem in essence, I suppose. Don’t think you’d have to be concerned about shipping at that zip code though

I have to agree with this assessment. Effectively the more we order the more we’re charged as I understand @BosKonay ‘s comment on dynamic charging. Within the EU reverse dynamic charging exists (the more that’s ordered the less is paid including free). I ordered a ton of stuff from Hatton's based on their trunk service. I’m don’t think anyone is asking IRM to house the stock indefinitely, we do want to see our models but some accommodation on combining adjacent deliveries would be extremely helpful. Guess where those additional postal savings are gonna be ‘reinvested’?

I haven’t seen these yet. What errors did you spot?

That’s kinda odd on 547. I can see how it rides higher off the bogie. Is there an extra shim or is it a difference in the coach floor? It one end of the coach or both? What bogies does your 547 have on it ?

That’s what they said verbatim to me in early February which isn’t very reassuring. Wouldn’t Hattons just want dump this electronic data to Rails, thank them and be done?

The only addition to the 141s seems to have been the addition of a speaker with no improvement in the very tedious access to the innards. Some people will feel let down that MM is continuing to use long paid for decades old tooling for in the 141s and seemingly now in other reruns, despite doubling the price point without any demonstrable intent to improve or modernize the model. I purchased some of the new 141s, but I have many of the original 071s and 201s in hand. I’m gonna be waiting cautiously for the price point on these, am certainly not going to be selling any of the original stock for ‘new’ 201s. For anyone who does want one though, I think some photos of the liveries prior to purchasing would be essential especially given the color variations on previous MM coaching stock.
