Brian Collins Enterprises Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Let's hope that 2013 will be a good year with some more Irish related trucks & buses. We can look forward to the Dublin Civil Defense Dennis Fire Engine (Q1/2013) & the Garda Transit Van (Q2/2013). Happy New Year Brian Collins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grange Castle Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Really looking forward to these two models being released. Hopefully there'll be a few more too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Hattons have them already listed on their website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grange Castle Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Lovely another two to add to my list of Garda vans and C D Dennis Thanks lads. Just having a look on hattons now, anyone see the Scania Irizar PB Eireann listed ? No pic anyone know what it is ? I assume its a bus. Edit : I've just found a pic, its a eurolines/bus eireann. Also the Aer Lingus van looks like a quick code 3 bash, maybe its just like the real thing but looks a bit boring. Just posted a pic of the bus in the Bus thread.

Brian Collins Enterprises Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Anthony, Hattons may have them listed on their website, but with no images currently. Grange Castle I was also disappointed with the Aer Lingus transit model, it's too plain. I would have expected corporate colour with logos? Thanks for posting the image of the bus also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minister_for_hardship Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Oxford do a David Brown tug, Aer Lingus used use these, painted white. Can't think of any excuse to use it in a railway context though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grange Castle Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) Pic of the Oxford Bus Eireann Van And its Prototype And also a pic of the Oxford Garda Van Sorry not a great pic Edited January 28, 2013 by Grange Castle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broithe Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Not bad - perhaps we could club together and get Bus Éireann a set of hub-caps to bring theirs in line. It's really great that such a small market is catered for these days. All we need now is for the excellent Bachmann Scenecraft figures to feature a range of Guards - with optional pony-tails.

Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) Tinnellys T cab can't wait to get my hands on one as its one of the local haulage companies in my area and I know the truck well. . Its great to see Oxford bringing out another trailer that's not a curtain sider or a refer. A nice load for this truck would be apples from Armagh heading to Bulmers in Clonmel or a load of scrap as these are quit common loads for Tinnellys Edited June 3, 2013 by Anthony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I will just have to start cutting:D. BTW forgot to say when carrying apples there was no cover used just a mountain of apples sticking above the trailer, and when carrying scrap a net covered the trailer.
