DJ Dangerous Posted August 19, 2022 Posted August 19, 2022 Saw this on the Hattons website the other day: https://www.hattons.co.uk/961180/oxford_diecast_76ir6008_bus_eireann_expressway_irizar_i6/stockdetail Will IRM be stocking them? Did @Brian Collins Enterprisesdo something similar a few years ago? 1 Quote
skinner75 Posted August 19, 2022 Posted August 19, 2022 Nice! I think the ones Brian Collins did weren't dual rear axle 1 Quote
DJ Dangerous Posted August 19, 2022 Author Posted August 19, 2022 Yup, I was way off. Have since found the forum thread on the @Brian Collins Enterprises commission: https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/4332-bus-eireann-scania-irizar-model-commissioned-by-brian-collins-enterprises Out of stock on his website, presumably long since sold out, pity I missed out on them! https://briancollinsenterprises.ie/product/brian-collins-enterprises-bus-eireann-expressway-model/ Quote
skinner75 Posted August 19, 2022 Posted August 19, 2022 No X20 route anymore - which is crazy. It was great for me, as from Athlone to Dublin, it was a straight run up the M6/M4. During the summer, always plenty of tourists in Busaras taking it down to Galway. Yet, the route was canned - go figure! 1 Quote

DJ Dangerous Posted April 1, 2023 Author Posted April 1, 2023 Will IRM have any more Expressway buses? Not for me, don't worry I don't need any more, mine are in the post! Just that Hatton's have them back in stock the past week or two. 2 Quote
Sean Posted April 3, 2023 Posted April 3, 2023 I wouldnt mind grabbing one. will they be stocked @BosKonay? 2 Quote
skinner75 Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 Marks Models currently have the Expressway buses listed as in stock 1 Quote
Noel Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 I've no idea why, but for some reason I never developed an interest in buses. Some fine models available these days. I generally don't put roads on layout scenery so little need of vehicles. However a tractor in a field or a truck in a goods yard adds visual interest. I've a pal who collects trucks and buses and has made amazing display cases for his collection. 1 Quote
DJ Dangerous Posted June 19, 2023 Author Posted June 19, 2023 Thirty Expressway buses in stock at IRM right now. Get moving! https://irishrailwaymodels.com/products/irizar-i6-bus-eireann-expressway-tri-axle-coach-route-x8-dublin-airport 1 Quote
