No other retailer gives the cash back rewards IRM does so it's slightly cheaper to buy from ye. And free postage on all orders. Just now, BosKonay said: And free postage on all orders.

Robert Shrives Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Well my EGV landed and had a chance to look over, MM5603A , in IR livery it looks the part just need to fanny with roof vents - black wash and a dot of black on exhausts to make it look like it has a hole. I guess paint over the orange interiors - a bit lurid but at least it has an interior - any soul got phots of inside please. very please to see bogies are suitable of 21mm gauge and cleverly the brake block moulding can be reclipped to the outer spacing - neat design move. Very please to add coach to fleet - does take the "urgency" off finishing a couple of brass ones in the massive part started heap! Thanks to all involved in rerun and distribution.

exciecoachbuilder Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Hi Robert, if this is any help, the inside of the MK 2 gen van was a fairly bleak affair. Roof to floor was panelled with galvinised steel panels and speckled two tone grey lino on the floor. Depending on how much you want to detail the inside? The only colour on the inside was, raw timber bits , eg, some door frames, any timber in the guards compartment, seat, writing table etc were painted signal grey, the folding gangway doors were painted signal red on the inside, and other stuff like fire extinguisher boxes and crowbar boxes were also painted signal red. Cheers Paul.... 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymurph Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 @BosKonay do you know roughly when the new stock of MM mark2d EGV and Buffet car in IR livery will be arriving? I notice another retailer is also running low on their EGV stock and now I'm getting nervous of missing out a second time. This hobby is making me skittish. I may need some Prozac . Or an EGV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Shrives Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Paul, Thanks for that. I guess doing interior gen set corridor walling in a light grey and black on the other side will calm down the orange currently visible. Thanks Robert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wexford70 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Had ordered a couple of the Murphy Models Galway Livery but sent them back, just unhappy with the livery finish as previously mentioned here and the fact the gangways were grey. Very disappointed. But full marks to IRM for their customer support. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgeconna Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) Dunno where the spec came from but certainly not sprung buffers one the ones I received this Morning. Doubtful they are metal too. Have not run any but the Tension lock springs seem much more robust and less sloppy so fingers crossed they run a lot better. Used the Cash back on these too, Took a right ol chunk out of the total! Sweet. Better than the Lima ones though and pretty happy with them too. 3 hours ago, Wexford70 said: One of the other carriages was missing the logo on the doors.

I would certainly expect that but in due course. I would have thought Irish Mk11D's may be a bit down the line, considering the MM releases have probably put a dent in short to mid term demand (regardless as to them being an upgrade). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
