You've already received yours???

Sorcery!

[Bob229]

Nice box  looking forward to the postman delivery in the next few days

[Railway Lyons]

Postie arrived, was intrigued, and had to see them once told what was inside. He remembers them, and totally unaware anything like it was available. 

They are stunning! Well done IRM. 

[knawa]

Just came in , They are lovely well done IRM team

[John-r]

Just received my two packs, really blown away by the detail, colour scheme and box art, these coaches are on a different level altogether, really well done lads . I won't put up any photos as they are the same as the two lads post above. ( also I'm still not sure how to put up my own photos yet, but don't tell anybody).

Make sure your name is recorded for the commission when he orders a few.

There here!!

[murphaph]

Just got my shipping notification. The tension is building! Usually takes a few days for stuff to get here so I'll have to contain my excitement until then.

You definitely won't be disappointed Philip, they are pure class looking.

[Warbonnet]

Thanks folks!

Just to say that IR pack 1 is sold out, but we do have limited amounts of 2, 3, and 4 remaining in stock if you want to add to your fleet!

I am so jealous, envious, angry, and hate-filled right now.

You guys and your almost-instant delivery!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, I hope you get rain, rain and more rain!

Coaches look wonderful and it's great to see such positive feedback. Be a few months before mine arrive, but I'm sure they'll be worth the wait.

Looking very well ... I have to say the box looks great too: it really pops out!!

I'll have mine waiting for me when I get home from holidays next week (cue frantic scrambling to get DPD to redirect delivery)

[RedRich]

My two packs arrived today and they are stunning models. The missus saw the boxes they were delivered in and had one of those WTF episodes not because the models are amazing but WTF have you bought now, is there any more of that going to arrive, haven't you got enough already. I turned on the ringtone on my phone and said sorry love I have to take this now.

[Bob229]

Have received shipping notification looking forward to their delivery

Be careful what you wish for DJ.

More rain means more time for trains, to run them and more videos...... Then how would you feel?

Sounds very familiar there Rich…

[Robert Shrives]

Looking forward to mine, but now of course I have a big pile of part started  Lima conversions. 

I will end up with more buffet conversions than in real life!   

The B4 bogie packs arrived today which is good as I can now faff with GSV models for B5 bogies, just in time for the announcement of Dutch and Mk1 gen brakes ...

Tell her they are for her, they're like small, mobile doll's houses.

[RedRich]

I tried the Homer Simpsom approach when he bought Marge a bowling ball for her birthday with the intention of asking her if he could borrow it. She wasn't having any of it.

[Bob229]

Just arrived Saturday delivery by DPD delighted, the box livery is excellent and is top quality now its time to run them well done IRM

[Bob229]

Another top quality product from IRM the fine livery orange roofs, finely detailed interior and lighting, the silver window frames no smoking signs sorry Rob, the IR intercity logo nostalgia and fine running and delivered on Saturday morning well done IRM

[RedRich]

What is one of the most standout features for myself is they are 95% of the way to matching the MM Mark ( shade of orange ) 2A coaches in the IE livery. Anyone modelling the BR scene will testify as to how other manufacturers can't even match the shades of the same livery in batches produced a few years apart.I love the MM ones and the IRM MK2's take them up a level or two. Well done IRM. Can't wait for the B4 bogies from IRM to arrive to fit to the MM ones.

Lovely photos, @Bob229, the coaches look fabulous!

Yeah, poor old @Rob is well and truly out of business with his massochistic no-smoking-sign application fetish.

[DB JOE]

All four of my packs along with the oil tankers arrived  today absolutely fab models so well done all concerned.....only downside is ill be eating lettuce and drinking water for the forseeable future

[Darius43]

Arrived today

Do you think the packing box was big enough..?

Seriously though, the coach packs were well packaged and arrived in pristine condition.
 

Cheers

[flange lubricator]

I also received mine and they are stunning models very happy with them ,

Wondering if IRM will sell the lighting strips as kits so I can fit to my Murphy models  Mk2a's.

[chris]

My 4 packs arrived today in a hilariously HUGE box. I'm almost disappointed there weren't mistakenly 12 packs in there, plenty of space for them
