I think you should profess to take a vow that this will be the last one!

Yes, let’s draw a veil over it

Just arrived at Clogherhead, all the way from New Zealand, courtesy of John @Mayner

Another exquisite brake van - thanks John!

 

[Patrick Davey]

The recent arrival from New Zealand of the JM Design 20 ton CIÉ brake van inspired me to put together a new video for my YouTube channel, looking at the changes in CIÉ freight working from the 1950s into the 1960s - many thanks to John @Mayner for this cracking model!  The Hatton’s Genesis coaches make a brief appearance too!

Yummidy-yum yum yum  

Very excited to return home to these magnificent models!!

They look amazing and have a very decent weight, and I will definitely make use of the cardboard boxes included in the packaging!!

Hope to get a run with them tomorrow (the vans, not the boxes, before some wannabe comedian chips in).

Great job IRM!!

 

 

A host of Hs - my two Provincial Wagons H vans from @leslie10646 have been added to the IRM rake!  The PW vans carry my first attempts at weathering, not sure how successful that was, so it makes the others look like they are just out of the factory…..

The video I posted there is again showing as a clickable link entitled 'FullSizeRender.MOV' rather than an embedded video, anyone know why that is?

What are Enda's contact details? I thought I had them but can't find. Methinks I need a few of those....
