K801

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

another batch of blue Cravens please

The new Accurascale MK5 Coaches with close coupling mechanism and onboard lighting look superb hopefully might lead to an IE MK4 coaches launch by IRM

So an IE Mk4 set should be no problem to the IRM lads 

I don't think there would be much of a market for thousands of new Mk3s, especially as Silverfox still sells them and they come up on fleabay every month

realistically I think modern rolling stock would make a lot more financial sense and as said before, introduce a whole new breed of modern modeler into the lobby

love them or hate them; Mk4s, IRCs, DARTs etc. is the way to go. We need something operating in 2021 that will still be in IE operation for the next 20 years

what would a 20 something year old pick up in Marks Models getting into the hobby, a model of a 70 year old Park Royal or a current Mk4 that he just traveled in on from Carlow

and been an armchair modeler, that's my two cents lol

If EVER a narrow gauge prototype was done, something which ran on several lines would be the most viable. This indeed, or T & D stuff which ran on the T & D, WCR and C & L.

While only one home, a Donegal 2.6.4T also....

If doing narrow gauge, I'd prefer the F501-3 over a steamer thanks

BELL tank next please Aaron  

will it be available RTR?

RTR beet wagons please, I'll even pay for them now.....

Very nice, any chance of a Norfolk Line container?

Anybody know what happened 745 at Slaght? ( Pic from ebay)
