But in the context of wagons the Mogul Zinc ore wagons were of course railway owned rather than private owner.. One of the Limerick based meat companies had some PO vans in the early 20th century, but I can’t remember if it’s shaws or Denny’s.. Will have to dig out my copy of the W&LR book for the details

It’s Irish alright, from the early 70s batch known as the tar jumbos.. Pictures of them are thin on the ground but @Mol_PMBdid post this a few months back
-
I had a few of the Atlas editions Stobart collection in boxes, so they have now been dug out and de-branded to make them a little more anonymous and suitable for use on an Irish layout. Unfortunately prototype pics for Irish on track plant and road railers seem to be thin on the ground

13th June 1997 at Cork, so towards the end of BELL.. Always good to have a colour picture to work from!
-
As a shipping line, it’s likely BELL only had a small number of tanks in their fleet dedicated to one or two customers.. Any pics I’ve seen seem to be leased tanks with a BELL decal added. The easiest one of these to model is the Transamerica 20ft and add a small BELL logo to it. There are pics of the tank on a train in Cork that I posted on here somewhere but I can’t find them right now despite trying a good number of searches! I will try dig out the original pic again.. Maybe @murphaphor @Weshty would take a look at doing a sheet of these? In the meantime, here are some pics from my album that I have saved from the excellent Waterford maritime history Facebook group

Afraid not, those sold out long ago.. Although @Gabhal Luimnighwas selling a pack a few weeks back, not sure if he still has it

That was quick, the sandwich I made after listing that stock isn’t even finished in the toastie sandwich maker and already the orders are coming in

Ebayers gonna eBay unfortunately.. And yes, as DJ mentions answering multiple queries on our support channels, often from the same person is very time intensive and does take some time to get back to people while trying to also resolve the issues with our 3PL. I am hoping to get to peoples tickets in the next few days as time allows By way of an update, we have now resolved the issue with the VAT set up, done a few tests orders to confirm it works, and customer orders are now shipping, hopefully with no one getting payment requests from DPD.. I am working on updating the tracking on people’s orders on their IRM accounts at the moment, and hope to have this done by lunchtime tomorrow.. The system should email the tracking info as normal once I update your order Sorry to the delay everyone, but hopefully the wagons are worth the wait..

Hi Dave, drop us a message on support and I will sort that for you
-
Not really, that was a one off that slipped out of the warehouse and I know why it happened. We are working on the VAT situation in the background and will only be shipping orders once we are happy that people won’t be getting VAT requests. Should be all in place in the next few days and then the floodgates from the warehouse will really open
-
Can you drop us a line on support, and I can sort that for you..
-
That was pre-emptive of course, if only we could get deliveries done that quickly!
-
Pics please for all us waiting on this side of the Irish Sea
-
Funnily enough, this was the shipment ahead of me being collected from the airport last summer when I was collecting an IRM shipment.. Not sure what type of grasshoppers the frogs inside would prefer, but they would probably struggle with one of @Mayners wetas
-
If the electrician leaves me any money when he’s finished ripping the guts out of the house, I would be interested in a pack or two(if they are still available for course) Would recommend sticking up a few pics, I have a LLNW pack and they are fantastic

We have a date set to move the stock out of Dublin warehouse but with the complexities of shipping to the U.K. and other overseas markets post brexit, we couldn’t risk having returns going back to the Dublin warehouse after we have de stocked it.. You would be surprised how many returns from the U.K. we have with people either thinking the DPD VAT request was a scam, that they have already paid the VAT, or that they bought from a U.K. warehouse etc or even just forgetting to pay the Vat on time etc. This means we had to end overseas shipping before domestic Irish shipping.. For our U.K. customers, you can still pre-order via Accurascale(ICRs, Park Royal’s and Hunslets at the moment) and we will also have the usual small surplus/ cancellations stock for the Esso tanks, H vans and Grains vans in about a week or two once we have cleared the pre-orders. We will also likely have a small amount of unsold stock from our Dublin warehouse to list on Accurascale, mainly bulleid opens and the last few magnesite packs.. You never know, we might even find a few packs of bulleid flats

Unusual that there would be two loaded liners there these days, are you sure it wasn’t the one liner split in two?

Pre-order prices are set in stone so nothing to sweat about there.. In case anyone is of a nervous disposition, I suggest they stop reading now, but the days of the three figure( that’s GBP too) super detailed coach are upon us, of course with rake discounts, loyalty etc, a Park Royal shouldn’t cost anywhere near that https://www.bachmann.co.uk/product/lnwr-50ft-arc-roof-third-corridor-lnwr-dark-claret-and-white/39-870 https://clarkrailworks.com/collections/quad-arts/products/ellis-clark-trains-oo-gauge-c2000b-quad-art-set-no-90-lner-teak-pre-order https://revolutiontrains.com/product/caroline-975025-inspection-saloon-oo-4mm/ https://railsofsheffield.com/blogs/news/new-bachmann-oo-gauge-mk2f-dbso

Hmm, there is one very notable omission from this thread(unless my sleep deprived mind has missed it)
-
I’m sure we might be able to rustle up a spare pack or two once they land.. If you click the notify me button on the listing and enter your details it will add you to “the list” https://www.accurascale.com/collections/irm-wagons

Stretching rule 1 a little, you could have Fenit handling exports of harbour crane parts from Liebherr in Fossa.. It still handles these to this day, and I’m fairly sure Liebherr did make use of rail at one stage, just not to Fenit obviously.. A look at the rail freight to the far north of Scotland for the oil industry gives a good idea of what could be handled -Pipes on flat wagons - Drilling mud in tank wagons or offshore tanks(think tank containers but smaller) - Drill heads in open wagons, with Cameron in Longford the destination for these

Was over 6 months ago now, so the eBay listing is no longer.. But from memory it was north of €300 for a mint 2 pack

Sorry, a comprehensive guide to the tail lights has been on our to do list for a while in Irm towers( it’s a long list!) You will need two batteries, one of top of the other.. It is a tight fit, but once you get a knack for it it’s easily done.. Just a tip for anyone that wants to add some to a 42ft flat, the dapol containers have removable floors, which makes fitting and threading the wires for the lights even easier.. I secured the light fittings to the sidewall of my container with double sided tape(€1.50 a roll in deals when I was buying the batteries) so they weren’t moving around in the container and the wires getting tangled..
