  1. This is great news. 

    Regarding the statement on the Cavens (as I would bag a load of these) - that their production will be subject to enough interest to make it economically viable.....how will this interest actually be measured to determine if it's viable to do another run?

    Would everyone buy an Irish steam locomotive though? The hobby seems to have focused on diesels and I was told by a couple of traders that the Bachmann moguls were a tough sell when they came out... 

    Definitely. Would be great to have a high quality steam locomotive from IRM on the layout....

    I did start into the hobby when I was given a large collection of old British DC steam locos and rolling stock, including the collection of Hornby Live Steam.....however, all was consigned to the shelves when I discovered IRM....so similar to what has been said already, whats there at the moment is all diesel, but an Irish steam loco would be a welcome addition. I am a firm follower of Rule 1....🙂

  3. Was next door to the Hyde building today myself. Considered popping in to say hello, but had dropped in just after the move to collect some ploughs and Tara's, and decided against disturbing the lads again. Nice bit of space there.  Will drop in again some time when it's all set up....

    Given that 141s are now on fleabay for €200, I wish I had bought a couple of dozen of them too. If people are paying €200 for a 141, I suppose, regrettably, €266 for a 071 (what about a 201?) is going to be par for the course. Personally I wouldn't pay that, but that's just me.

    Moral of the story - we all get our orders in for 121s ASAP.

    £266 = €308 + €29 postage

    So on a DCC circuit approaching €400 to run one with a non sound decoder....€500 to run with sound....
