floorster Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Hi all. Here an Irish Railway modeller from the Netherlands. Rolling stock is hard to get. I see some wagons from IRM going for sale for over 500 Euro's on Ebay. Does anyone know how or where I could get some respray's of Mk3 coaches? Best regards, Florijn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murphy Models are likely to be releasing Mk3 coaches over the coming few years. IRM wagons and coaches are best bought here: https://irishrailwaymodels.com/en-eu The “In Stock” tab is very useful: https://irishrailwaymodels.com/en-eu/collections/in-stock As is the news tab for upcoming projects: https://irishrailwaymodels.com/pages/projects If Murphy Models go ahead with the Mk3’s, it’s likely that IRM will be a stockist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Dangerous Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 As an alternative, if you don’t want to wait for Mk3’s, the Lima models are quite nice, to my eye. Not prototypical, but they appear on eBay from time to time, Me personally, I’d value them around €40 each, but that’s quite subjective. You could also contact Silver Fox if you wanted some right now: http://silverfoxmodels.co.uk/ir-ie-mk3-mainline-coach/ To me, they’re a less attractive option than the Lima’s due to the price, but they are still a viable option. Sadly, Silver Fox stopped doing their Mk3 DVT’s, as did DC Kits, so your only option is second-hand… But get in line! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Snail Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 (edited) In addition to IRM's own shop, there are a few other Irish retailers which will often have items still in stock after IRM sell out: Mark's Models are the biggest: https://www.marksmodels.com/?cid=51 Another is Modeller's Corner, based in Northern Ireland: https://modellerscorner.co.uk/cat/model-railway/ The UK retailers also carry Irish stock. Rails of Sheffield's website will also carry pre-owned Irish models. Looks like you just missed out on some Mk 3's amongst a lot of pre-owned Irish stock that Clark Railworks recently got in https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/16106-big-load-of-irish-stock-listed-at-clark-railworks/#comment-235160 Edited May 16 by Flying Snail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
