It was a test and probably won’t be repeated. In real terms the packs came in about 8 weeks faster but in practical terms the couple of days waiting for the last mile has upset too many. We will continue reviewing and trying to keep most people happy most of the time. 

Ah that's a shame. I understand the reasoning though.

"Oh" well or "oil" well?

I got mine yesterday.

Oil's well that ends well.

The Jury is still out tbh, the cost to us is about the same, but in 'real' terms it cuts delivery down to about a week / ten days, from 8-10 weeks on a ship, and then a week to 10 days on top, but clearly we could have better communicated that.

IRM do a super job with communication, much better than many others. Keeping us informed at every step.

Happy to say mine arrived also.

these look great, I nearly managed to get some the other day but by the time I was putting in the address details on the order page the last 2 packs disappeared!

oh well, there'll be another run... won't there?

If you can make it to the exhibition in Belfast on August 24/25th next I can bring you some?
Cheers

Received these little beauties today. So tempted to do my first weathering of any stock. The words in the paragraph below are so true of the team in the IRM towers. Thanks to IRM Lads for another cracker.

If the pics and videos are anything to go by, I'll be in Heaven.

All you lucky so and so's showing them off weeks ahead of me!

Think I'll go out and have a sulk under the blue sky.

At last, I have the wagons I always wanted since I saw them in the junction as a kid!

A version with a hand painted‘Connolly only ‘ on the side could be a future addition.

Look what the cat dragged in the other day…

Big thanks to @Garfield for all of the help getting these ordered, and @MOGUL for making sure they arrived, despite Shopify falling apart and being useless.
