aclass007 Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 Is it more Dapol commissioned models? Quote
Glenderg Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 CIE broken wheel roundel H vans/goods vans in bauxite and light grey. Or RTR Turfburner RTR double beet wagons 21mm setrack and points Nah, who'd want that crap. I'll go with the H van theory. Quote
heirflick Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 its another batch of the Dapol CIE 1950's coachs ...one in the black and tan and a break in the green livery:dancing: Quote
Noel Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 its another batch of the Dapol CIE 1950's coachs ...one in the black and tan and a break in the green livery:dancing: Do you know if such would be scale repo's of laminates or bredins or other? Quote
DiveController Posted September 11, 2014 Posted September 11, 2014 FROM their website for the previous sold out version Green DAPOL CIE 1950's COACH PRISTINE THIS MODEL IS NOT AN ACCURATE REPRODUCTION, BUT IS SIMILAR TO COACHES OF THIS PERIOD PRODUCED EXCLUSIVLY FOR MARKS MODELS ONLY 200 PIECES OF THIS MODEL HAVE BEEN PRODUCED (176 PRISTINE )(24 WEATHERED) Quote
DiveController Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Are these different from the green coaches that come in the Bachmann set with the green Woolwich or in the train pack? Which if either of these is a more accurate representation of .... what is this supposed to be? Laminate stock. I thought that the Bachmann set and pack came with a brake and there are a few singles at least in the US market? (old thread seemed to have modelers looking for a brake) Quote

I thought that the Bachmann set and pack came with a brake and there are a few singles at least in the US market? (old thread seemed to have modelers looking for a brake) The bachmann coaches were based on LMS compartment stock, think they're supposed to 'represent' pre GSR stock. CIE did not have anything quite like them, but likely the NCC did. Don't know what the Dapol one was originally meant to be. They look ok, the eau de nil waistband annoys me though. Far too wide.

DiveController Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Did these ever materialize? Not on Marks Models website as far as I can see...... Quote
heirflick Posted September 21, 2014 Posted September 21, 2014 Did these ever materialize? Not on Marks Models website as far as I can see...... 'expected soon' - all that the lads at Marks had to say on the subject today Quote
heirflick Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 been on to Marks again and the invoices have arrived and the currier was supposed to land today. invoices states that there will be a standard and break coach in black and tan AND in the green livery. Quote
DiveController Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 Are the Bachmann green coaches in the Irish Railway set, pack and individually prototypical of that period? I know the ones at Marks Models are not but if neither are strictly correct, I guess we might be able to mix and match the greens? Any thoughts on this? Quote

Not great photos I am afraid http://www.marksmodels.com/?cid=51 Agreed. Heirflick's photos are far better than on the website and that is what I based my order on. He should really get an advertising fee from Mark's! Quote
