Who sets the crazy ebay postage?

How many of them did CIE have?

There was an ITG railtour that day and we had to bus around it if I remember correctly

Not sure if its been mentioned here before but if you like early CIE diesels, this is the video for you! First 10 mins shows how the IRRS digitized, edited and processed old film and is presented by Ciarán Cooney The action starts around 12 mins in and shows a down Cork Sulzer 113 ( never see a video of of those before), double A classes, Sulzer's, E class, all the small GMs and amazing rolling stock etc. Thank you to Tom Dowling, Ciarán Cooney and the IRRS for putting it together and hopefully they will process more for viewing

That pic was taken by the late great Paddy Kennedy, I found it many years ago as a 1 x 1 inch slide and had this gem of a photo lifted from it

Thankfully, I've had zero issues with DHL. My models usually take 4 days Dublin - E. Midlands - CINCINNATI - Dallas USA

I'm not sure how all these trams ended up in Maine, but next visit I'll see if there's anything from Ireland hidden in the acres of trams out back!

Good point, Sixteen English Electric 0-6-0DE 350 hp locomotives, based on the Class 08 design but modified for 1,600 mm (5 ft 3 in) gauge, were built new and exported 1951–53 to Australia, entering service on the Victorian Railways as the F class ( The CIE 401 were built in 57/58) So, if anybody has a repainted Hornby/Lima/Bachmass BR 08 on an Irish layout, you can say it was imported from down under!

Would love to see the up to date pics of them now, so they are owned by the RSPI?

Agreed, IRM #1 for customer service, I hope a few more new announcements come soon

Silverfox A's perfect for experimenting with now

Nice job on that CAF

I heard the cameras onboard are useless as nobody monitors them

will there be some flat wagons ordered to go under the boom during transportation or maybe a couple of old liner flats

Can IRM & Accurascale model website orders be combined for shipping?

anybody got a photo of a IR 141 shunting the BR blue/white Mk2s around Inchicore or between the carriage shops?

Thank you ttc0169, well done to Jim Deegan and everybody involved

Very nice. Who owns that little loco and two coaches?

I believe a Mk2D EGV can power up to 13 MK2D coaches?

any update on 7122, has it been scrapped?

I wish I knew JHB, could of been a Knock special, can't remember but it was a noise lovely to hear leaving Sallypark

remember a 14 piece (13 x Mk2 Supertrain coaches and 1 x GSV van tagged on the rear) leaving Waterford around 9pm on Sunday evenings, could hear the 071 nearly all the way to Thomastown!

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!
