  1. Duly ordered. Nice little release. Thanks IRM
  2. I’m in for the 22’ container flat
  3. I would imagine with that delivery date we could be heading for €300 per loco.
  4. Thanks for the photo credits. It was a more interesting railway scene then.
  5. 20’ flats for container traffic would be fantastic release.
  6. I couldn’t resist a little video. Fantastic sound IMG_7778.mov
  7. Out of interest what couplers are you using on the IRM Mk2?
  8. Thanks for the encouragement. Believe me I can’t wait to get running in full.
  9. A full year late but Ballyercall is in full test mode. Great to be running trains again
  10. Welcome aboard
  11. I wonder has the initial sales been more encouraging after the ICR slight disappointment?
  12. Major signalling fault around the Howth Junction area this evening. These things happen. Safety first.
  13. Order in for a few too many!
  14. I think this will be great for Ballyercall’s return. These bring back childhood memories. I will be ordering at least 3. Thanks IRM. Now just announce the 80 class and the MV’s and I’ll sell the house!
  15. 101&102 in blue chevron. 103 was lying in Ballymena yard awaiting scrapping, not sure what year it met the cutters torch, mid 90’s
  16. No criticism here, I think we are very well served for such a small market. Just wondering is the 20’ container flat easily produced from the existing tooling? I think that would be a great little wagon to compliment the 42’ one. Also the amount of items on special reduction sales in many UK model shops shows a market downturn.
  17. I’m still saving for that ultimate 80 class!
  18. Sorry to hear this. I think it just reflects the times. All the household essentials have went through the roof cost wise. I know I have to much more selective and keep to the IR era of the late 80/early90’s. And I have always been blessed with good employment.
  19. Any updates on the next run of 071/111 locos?
  20. Facts The DD’s will be with us to 2030 They will only ever run on the Belfast to Dublin route The vast majority of service issues since early July have been delayed buses caught up in congestion on the M1 A1 corridor The number two issue for service delays has been congestion and lost paths on the approach to Connolly I can never understand the constant negativity towards the DD’s as they are not the biggest issue this route currently faces at the moment. Read points 3&4. Facts. I can go on.
  21. Facts help get a clearer understanding
  22. DD’s will be in service to the year 2030
  23. Hourly service will be 3 DD sets, 2 ICR’s and 1 3000 6 car set.
