  1. The Bubbles depart Ballyercall.
  2. Ballyercall has a NIR heritage line up for the Big GM fans!
  3. When you have 2 small companies owned by the same people surely distribution of products being merged must be common sense and help keep costs down which is what we all want. At the end of the day all products are distributed from China!
  4. Please no Oxfords. After the hash they have made of the uk liveries I would have little confidence of a decent Irish version. Hopefully a certain other little team can see a large opportunity that is still there with Oxford slipping up.
  5. Can’t wait. They look stunning!
  6. Great photos. Always a joy to view. Can't wait for those little 121's to arrive.
  7. Hope this helps. I got the feeling that it could well be just after Chinese New Year although obviously Paddy wants these out ASAP but he wants them right and they are looking good physically and technically.
  8. Well lads I hope everyone enjoyed the good old Warley war!! Battling through the crowd. I have got to say I really enjoyed the whole event on Saturday. Met up with Wrenneire aka Dave and John Hamilton at Ardmore. I hope your colleague was ok after his fall. Also meeting up with Patrick and Fran on the IRM/Accurascale stand and taking the time to have a chat and see the new products due soon, great stuff. But just as I left the show and entered the Starbucks queue I happen to say hello to Paddy Murphy. This is a man I have only seen once before in my life. So he said to wait a couple of minutes and he would be back. Sure enough as I was collecting my coffee he came back and for the next hour we chatted. He gave an amazing insight into the problem child the 121 had been and the various difficulties he had faced and at the same time keeping the price as sensible as possible. He then unwrapped some samples and showed the various options covered and the enormous moulding challenges. It was the highlight of the show for me. Thanks Paddy for taking the time to talk but also the fantastic models produced over the years. And if anyone wants to complain about the 121’s being late take time to consider how blessed we have been for such a small market. Gareth
  9. I suppose if you take the individual wagon total as 2500, all it takes is about 70 orders of 18 wagons a prototypical rack and over half the wagons are gone. I will certainly order some empty flats if they are ever sold that way. It’s great to see IRM having such problems and can only be a confidence boost to producing more Irish models in the future. We don’t want forgotten as Accurascale goes from strength to strength.
  10. I think the lads have already rocked the show with the Class 37 reveal earlier today
  11. Will you have a sample on display at Warley just for a little preview?
  12. Thanks for the photos lads. It’s starting to look the business! Congratulations to Murphy Models for bringing more goodies to the Irish modelling scene.
  13. More importantly has anyone any photos from the show?
  14. I feel your pain!!!
  15. Class 50 driver! Love it, dream job!!
  16. I would recommend Peco Bullhead track if you are going with OO. I think it does help the appearance greatly. I have included a link to a short video of my layout we’re I have used it. This layout is far from complete but you can get the feeling for how the track looks
  17. Never doubted it. Well done to all involved
  18. Thanks for your help again in sorting this for me.
  19. Sorry to trouble you again but does this mean that the re-engined GM sound file will definitely be available?
  20. Thanks. Is the sound project not a definite yet?
  21. Ok,ok,ok I give in! I will buy another so could you stop this torture!
  22. Looks fantastic. Can’t wait now. I think I might need another after I have sold my kidney! Well done again, the slow running looks a treat. Mileage tests are always available on Ballyercall!
  23. Short video
