Yeah, at a hundred quid each.

i'd rather twelve of IRM's forthcoming Mk4's or Paddy's Mk3's for the same price.

Where did you see info for IRM MK4s?

The folks at the New Jersey Museum of Transportation when i visited told me people often remark 3T should be sent back to Ireland.

Not a chance!

HI All 

Just like any other but the lower part goes most of the way across as it has the flap that folds down to discharge the product in it.

I think these had more conventional doors in case they got used as a general 30ft container but now they all just have access doors so they can change the bag and clean them out.

 

Regards Arran

 

Thank you Aaron

Do you think at some stage a BELL tank might be released RTR?

Just noticed this detail on the Bulk Bells

 

I wonder how the top left door opens?

Looks like another 401 on the right. Didn't see many Seddon Atkinsons in Ireland, always reminded me of the old style Volvo F10

there was also a 40ft reefer

HI All

 

I think Charlie does have a limited amount of BELL reefers

Only missing a BELL ISO tank and an all purple BELL 20ft now

I don't think that there'll be re-runs of the 141, 181 or 071 locomotives as technology has moved on and it would be pointless re-releasing out of date products. With the release of the 121 and As the bar has been raised to new heights and there would be an expectation by modelers getting into the game that versions of newer locomotives will be, at least, as good if not better than those aforementioned prototypes. Patience is the name of the game.

What improvements in technology would you expect to see if a new 071 was re-released over the old MM one? 

I think Jouef HDI is more of a general collectors item now having been made in Ireland, rather than it been a model train

I have one or two in a box somewhere...

Wow, new record for HDI?

I wonder if the Mk3s could be hired for a railtour 

what is the update with this train, I read on another forum its no longer running?

I believe next month DJ

One of Adrian's new releases 

I was going to try model that coach years ago but gave up and just painted the donor and lived with the 20ft rule lol

Thanks for posting that video murphaph

My late uncle Stephen o'Keeffe is the train guard in the cab, thanks for all the foot plate rides Stephen, we miss you very much!

Lovely stuff. Was the other variant a Volvo?

I wonder will we ever see an 071 with a Bio Natural Gas tank behind it like in the USofA

Hello Leslie, are your presentations recorded so we can watch them on the other side of the pond?

What a great price for the TransPennine Mk5s, absolutely stunning models, well done lads.

IRM Mk4 set next pretty please

Done. The ferts 100% as others said

Glenn Carr of Rosslare Port said the port was expanding rapidly since Brexit. Continental freight was up by 447 per cent, he said, while UK freight had fallen by about 49 per cent.

Could we see Waterford-Rosslare reopened?

looks a nice long siding

Existing tooling or not, running a few hundred of each of three coaches would probably mean the set would retail at about €400!

 

€150 for a new 3-pk of Cravens i'd say
