raymurph Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Any chance IRM are planning on releasing a RTR CIE brake van in the near to medium future ? I could see them doing a nice job with built in lit lamps. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wexford70 Posted Wednesday at 14:18 Share Posted Wednesday at 14:18 Even a small smoke generator for the pot belly stoves? Anything seems possible these days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfjoc Posted Wednesday at 14:20 Share Posted Wednesday at 14:20 (edited) Be careful what you wish for as your wallet may not be able to stand the pressure. Chatting to Fran at Wexford he hinted that both a break van and a GSV were needed to go with all the wagons and coaches they were producing. He also mentioned that not one but two loco announcements would be made this year. Edited Wednesday at 14:39 by mfjoc mispelling 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For ALL freight trains prior to the late 60s, and most up to the late 70s, brake vans at the back are as essential as the loco at the front. And no matter what repaints or alterations we do, there's not a single British RTR van that looks even remotely like any that ran here ever. We've JM Design's excellent planked ones so far, and both GSWR / GSR and GNR types from Provincial Leslie, but an IRM RTR CIE one is badly needed! Several body design variations, several livery variations for different eras; bring 'em on....! Also in dire need of: Tin vans!

True! In the passenger brake world, Dutch vans, and both the four and six-wheeled "tin vans", though the six-wheeled ones mightn't be commercially viable as there were only about five of them, and they rarely strayed off the Cork line, as well as being pretty short-lived. But the four wheelers were on virtually every single train in the 1960s, and many in the 70s. 8 hours ago, mfjoc said: Chatting to Fran at Wexford ........................
