No problem Paul. I have no idea when the windows being blanked out dates from but I will PM you a name of a local Ballymena railway buff who might be able to help. It used to be great sitting in the cabin with the tablet exchange bell drowning out the sound of the church bells of St Patrick's as they practised during the evening. Bliss!
I have already tried that route and was promptly informed that filling out the form, posting it along with payment to the RPSI Dublin address was the only option.
If the second set are produced could Murphy models simply supply a brass etch that could be fitted over the relevant Windows by the modeller. It would keep the price similar and no one could expect Murphy to modify molds for just one coach.
Great to see a manufacturer being open to ideas, one of the advantages of having genuine modellers at the heart of it all.
I personally would prefer a RTR rake of fertiliser wagons than the plough. Rake of 10 "ferts" made to IRM standards would be awesome!
