Had the whole lot of coach options selected and the total price 6 month payout was a sobering 180 per month so cut back a tad. Have to eat too!! When I started the Irish stuff it was just a 141 and a couple of cravens running around a Country Terminus I had in Mind. The slippery slope is now a near vertical ski jump.. but just sit back and enjoy the ride. The Country Terminus can now enjoy a Friday only extra from Dublin.

murphaph Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) Maybe Phase 1 & 2? (SO is just standard open I guess) I'd be interested to know the correct answer too. Edited November 8, 2022 by murphaph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting question alright: if it is phase 1 and 2 perhaps that refers to the batch they were manufactured in originally in the UK? Just speculating because the Ph.1 have higher running numbers ...

murphaph Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I assumed it was an IRM manufacturing phase rather than anything prototypical but I honestly have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Snail Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I'm just guessing too - my logic was that earlier BREL stock would would have taken longer to refurb and would then have entered the IE fleet later (and received a higher number).

There are two "phases" of Mk.2c coach, those with large GM roof vents and large toilet window (phase 1) and with Roe-Vac roof vents and smaller "air con" style toilet windows with no vent (phase 2). IR had mostly Phase 2 with a single Phase 1 vehicle. So in this case its the original build phase of the coaches nothing to do with us The NIR coaches are due relatively soon, and these IE packs are in the next batch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a 10 year wait for a locomotive once. These things take time to design, test, tweak, refine, test, get right and hand made.
