Warbonnet Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Hi everyone, So, we have been a bit quiet recently, right? Well, that's all about to change throughout 2022, with several new announcements coming your way this year. It kicks off tomorrow, with an all new announcement. This is new tooling, not a bus, and is not powered. That's all the clues you're getting! So, make sure you keep an eye out for this new announcement tomorrow at 1pm! In the meantime, feel free to place your guesses below! Cheers! Fran 12 1
connollystn Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 My guess is the Crossley engined C class - they were effectively non-powered for the first 15 years of their existence. 15
DoctorPan Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I'm going to guess its a coach of some kind, maybe a Park Royal or Laiminate. 3 2

Georgeconna Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Defo a Telephone box, P&T colour schemes , All Era's including De Fibs, interior lights and vandalised option. Please don't be too expensive what ever it is... 2 2
meathdane Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I've a few on the wish list, A RTR beet/double beet wagon definitely top of the list, running from steam until 121/071/141 operations, huge lifespans on them! Next are the 20' flats, modularity and loads, relatively modern, and a great base for kit bashing up prototypes and one off wagons 'H' vans are up there too, again, well traveled and scope for different liveries. Cattle wagons, not particularly an Irish railway without them, they were the reasons some lines stayed open as long as they did! Tankers because, well, tankers! Lots of use for Irish depots and an easy goal because of the existing 'A' and 'B' tank wagons on the market! Lots more, but Irish Freight is more interesting to me than coaching stock! (outside of 6 wheelers!) 4
leslie10646 Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) I don't think you need a PhD to work this one out. Now I can get with building my own model railway! Edited February 2, 2022 by leslie10646 2 1
Noel Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 My money is on Ammonia wagons and Mk4, perhaps even a 22k yoyo. Personally I've now got enough Park Royals and Laminates, made enough of my own over the past 4 years from kits and kit bashing. Will check with interest tomorrow evening. 1 1

leslie10646 Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Horse MUST be a working one and a MARE! 1
enniscorthyman Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Park Royal coaches.They would certainly work well with all the liverys of the A class. 1 1
murphaph Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I'm gonna go with the footbridge as well, so it won't be that lol. 1 1
mmie353 Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 lol, I was going to pull the trigger on a couple of A class locos, today.. waiting to see what happens with this announcement. 1

Good idea….if much of the stuff theorised is announced…..many remaining A classes will become more attractive to buy 1

Biggest clue yet! 2 axle wagons of some sort. Music to my ears, but not to ever take from your wonderful wagons Leslie, of which I have many! 2
RobertRoche Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I don't think it's the footbridge yet. Some early stuff would be nice to see. 1
NIRCLASS80 Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I reckon something 2 axle and after the quick sales of the CIE A class models easily justified. 3

mphoey Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 will it be announced on rte on the steps of irm headquarters 2
leslie10646 Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Let's hope I'm not otherwise engaged, like 1pm today! 2022 2 2 Calss 37 456s.mov Cephesus hauling three SWT Class 456 units off to storage at Long Marsden. Needless to say, they are a lot younger than 37.884! Note my well-trained Gricerine busily noting the details! More free advertising for Accurasale (are you doing this one, lads?) 2
leslie10646 Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I thought I was about to catch another Class 37 (it was on a Derby RTC to Eastleigh trip) when this came instead! 2022 2 2 Class 153.mov I assume it's off to the Works at Eastleigh for some kind of refurb? It's all Go at Goring! 3
