Support the RPSI With Our New Mark 2 Coach Pack

[DJ Dangerous]

Here we are, literally two years later, and I am happy to say that I received a letter from Customs yesterday, looking for money before they'll release my RPSI Mk2 coaches.

Been a long wait but I'm sure they'll be worth it.

What does that "Page does not exist" thing in my last post, mean, @BosKonay?

Had I posted a link to a thread that has since been deleted?

These coaches are going to be incredibly sought-after in no time, people will be killing each other for them.

Emailed all of my stuff to customs last night, biting my nails today while waiting for them to bill me for mine, can't wait to see them in person.

This bundle of joy was also delivered today, finally.

These look exquisite, I desperately need somewhere to run some trains!

Honestly, they are so detailed that they pass for O Gauge.

I have the old Bachmann RPSI ones but I'm seriously tempted by these, it's a killer

Had to have a closer look at IRM's first trainset, the ITG's A3R and the RPSI's Mk2 coaches!

Up close and personal, these are just lovely lovely coaches.

Again, lots of "No Smoking" signs so no work for @Rob!

547 rides a little higher than 181 and 300, maybe 1mm or 2mm.

There's extra clearance between body and bogies compared to the other two.

Is this prototypical?

Sorry if the lighting is a bit off, hard to get a good balance with the sun in your face in this horrid heat.

That’s kinda odd on 547. I can see how it rides higher off the bogie. Is there an extra shim or is it a difference in the coach floor?

It one end of the coach or both? What bogies does your 547 have on it ?

Absolutely love the ‘natural’ background.
