Congratulations on your big win at the Hornby Awards. For any of you who missed the announcement (sent to all IRM customers?) - here it is:

"A massive thank you to everyone who voted for us in the 2024 Hornby Magazine awards. Our sister brand Accurascale won in all 5 categories we had an entry in, including the coveted "Manufacturer of the Year".

We know many of our IRM customers vote for us, so thank you once again!

One item that won was the joint project of our Mark 2 coaches, which were done for both Accurascale and IRM in our NIR and IR/IE coach packs."

 

Think of HOW BIG YOU WILL WIN NEXT YEAR when your model of the GNR Q Class or "Merlin" is running on all of our layouts!

 

Well done

 

Leslie

Way to go Leslie! Let's hope the Merlin we all wish and hope for is not as mythical as his namesake from the days of King Arthur! We wait and see! 

WOOO HOOO!!!! Well said!

Hi Fishplate - No.85 is a BIRD - but don't worry, I made a mistake in Steam's Silver Lining saying that Merlin had just gone through HIS first tunnel (exiting Downhill Tunnel) and I usually refer, in talks, to 85's restoration as "Putting the Magic back into Merlin".

Yes, a Compound would be wonderful.

By the way, there's a brilliant article by Conrad Natzio in the latest edition of Milepost (journal of the Railway Performance Society) about the Compounds. It deserves a wider audience than the restricted circulation of the Timers'  Times! (Pun intended).
