Still producing models, but as far as I know you can only order via their Facebook page now. In the past it could be done through the website.

Irishswissernie Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Checked Irish Freight Models, the Ammonia tank isn't listed anymore and the barrier wagon is marked as out of stock. Tom doesn't have a web site now, only on facebook. Ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Cooper Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Just finishing off one from ebay. First attempt at kit, and found it fairly straight forward. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonB Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) I've recently been working on the SSM kit. It's brass, so a little more work involved in the build. But the detail is fantastic, and in my opinion well worth effort when you see the end result. Edited March 2, 2019 by jason brady Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaYSidE Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 in the early 1980's the net train was paint bombed, i remember seeing the wagons and locos covered in bright pink, blue and cream splodges as they passed through Dalkey. it was locals protesting against the danger of ammonia in urban areas. some years later i heard a big fire was lit on the wicklow line, again in protest.
