Arran Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) HI All Seen these tanks in one of the intermodals , How common are they ? Regards Arran Edited May 27, 2022 by Arran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 The Murphy's tanks are on hire to replace some of the older DCIU tanks I believe, some of the DCIU tanks are at least 18 years old. @MOGUL I had seen some of these for the first time last August in North Wall and asked about them with the answer above. I haven't seen them too often since. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I wouldnt mind having a few all the same, dont have any tanktainers just yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dangerous Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I'd much rather Dana's before the Murphy's. While dreaming and speculating, what containers are likely to appear on IRM's next run of 42'6" flats? Will they be all new containers, or a mix of those in the original run with a few new ones mixed in? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Yes- agree with @Sean & @DJ Dangerous- would be a fan of the tanktainers allright and the DANA's in particular! Just aswell there was a good selection in Heuston North earlier! 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanktainers are a must for post 2000 IE liners, they make up about 40% of the weekly load on the liners and have plenty of variety including a few oddities.. Layout looks great, I would give that the IWT seal of approval for authenticity! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that @Arran, @MOGUL, @ttc0169 and @Rob, the container experts, can add to or take away from that list as and where it's incorrect. Also, much as it galls me to say it, and it IS quite a lottery as to what you will actually receive, DC Kits show the following in stock...

murphaph Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I wouldn't order those Bell reefers from DC Kits if I were you. I did and I got 20' Bell dry boxes instead and this was never rectified or the error acknowledged. I don't think he has those reefers as the same thing happened to others on here IIRC.

Not gonna get my blood rushing again here, though! Never had a problem with ordering from @Arran directly, so can thoroughly recommend that path. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Maybe IRM could team up with Murphys Models for one last blast of 42's with lovely murphy tanktainers as the load........ take us back to the glory days certainly, would compliment a rake of these on a layout....... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOGUL Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 A whole crop of Dapol and Hornby containers released this month, some very much of Irish interest Dapol First: 20ft Evergreens, unweathered and weathered versions available.. Cover a wide period from the 90s onwards, and were very prominent on the Claremorris liner with Bone chip exports from Dawn meats in Ballyhaunis, as well as lots of other liner operations up to the present day IWT https://www.dapol.co.uk/shop/oo-gauge/wagons-OO-Gauge/oo-gauge-containers/4F-028-055-OO-Gauge-Container-20FT-EISU-75951-5-01151-3 https://www.dapol.co.uk/shop/oo-gauge/wagons-OO-Gauge/oo-gauge-containers/4F-028-056-OO-Gauge-Container-20FT-EISU-75951-5-01151-3-Weathered 40ft mixed pack with 1 Hapag Lloyd and 1 CMA.. Very relevant to IWT liners! Again come in weathered and un-weathered versions.. I got a set in a hattons order(with a nice Mulgrew truck needing light repairs) and they are passable.. Not up to Arrans standards, but a good volume filler as you can never have enough 40ft CMAs(think I have about 8, a mix of dapols and Crail by now) https://www.dapol.co.uk/shop/oo-gauge/wagons-OO-Gauge/oo-gauge-containers/4F-028-056-OO-Gauge-Container-20FT-EISU-75951-5-01151-3-Weathered https://www.dapol.co.uk/shop/oo-gauge/wagons-OO-Gauge/oo-gauge-containers/4F-028-107-OO-Gauge-40ft-Ctnr-HC-HAPAG-LLOYD-213247-0-CMA-CGM 522616-6-Weathered 45ft Mixed pack of P&O and Samskip, JACKPOT! Both of these are regulars on the IWT liner, and the Samskip ones sometimes make up 80% of the load on the XPOs(that's 3 boxes!).. Can't find them on Dapol website but Hattons seem to have some.. https://www.hattons.co.uk/976915/dapol_4f_028_023_45_ft_container_p_o_ferrymasters_007303_8_samskip_798868_0/stockdetail https://www.hattons.co.uk/976916/dapol_4f_028_024_45_ft_container_p_o_ferrymasters_007303_8_samskip_798868_0_wthd/stockdetail Hornby have 3 packs 1 of tanktainers x 3, nice models.. Only the Concisa has seen the rails here(IWT liner 2015-2019ish), but the other two are generic enough/hire units that could fit in.. They are a little dear though, going to pass on these and pick up some C-Rails in Raheny instead! https://uk.hornby.com/products/concisa-tip-hoyer-container-pack-3-x-20-tanktainers-era-11-r60130 1 pack with a 40ft hanjin and a 20ft DAL, Hanjin went bust around 2018 but their containers did appear on liners here(baby food liner from Askeaton notably).. DAL are a niche african carrier, so unlikely much Irish interest in this one.. Again going to pass as I have a Hanjin from Dapol, and they are dear for Hornbys standards at £21 a pack https://uk.hornby.com/products/dal-hanjin-container-pack-1-x-20-and-1-x-40-containers-era-11-r60128 Another pack with a Genstar 40ft and a CCL 20ft, both more suitable for early 1990s-2000s.. I think Arran has done Genstar, and I know nothing about CCL! Another pass unfortunately! https://uk.hornby.com/products/ccl-genstar-container-pack-1-x-20-and-1-x-40-containers-era-11-r60127 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
