connollystn Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 I like your optimism. You should print off some of the pics of the IRM As that are on this thread an place them in the cabinet and replace them with the actual models when they arrive before Christmas 20........ 4 Quote
Noel Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 Ah now, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the A's and Deltics in the not too distant future. 3 Quote
BosKonay Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 Considering the production boxed As have been plucked off the assembly line for their photo shoots this week, they are very close Quote

DJ Dangerous Posted December 28, 2021 Author Posted December 28, 2021 (edited) Well, the grey 071 re-sprays finally arrived today! The pandemic has slowed Chris Dyer down, and his painter, Tony, seems to be flat out. Well worth the wait, really impressed with these three! Edited December 28, 2021 by DJ Dangerous 5 2 Quote

connollystn Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 @DJ Dangerous - Great job done on those 071s. I like the livery and the lack of the unsightly/untidy grab irons on each end. 1 Quote

DJ Dangerous Posted October 21, 2022 Author Posted October 21, 2022 This Spanish magazine trio and their IRM colleague have been in the post since April! 4 Quote
DJ Dangerous Posted February 9, 2023 Author Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) Another Chris Dyer / Tony Mirolo re-spray arrived in the post today! Unfortunately they messed up and gave me a second 081, so I'll have to get somebody to re-number it some day. Cost-prohibitive to post it anywhere so it'll be a working holiday for somebody. I know that you can see the carrier film, but that seems to be the way that Chris and Tony work these days. Again, it can be a working holiday for somebody to tidy this up! Short video uploading...

popeye Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Nice loco, I hated the grey at first but it's ok now. Pity about the carrier film, may be redo that as well. 2 Quote
Georgeconna Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Would not be too happy looking at that silvering TBH. What I would do it take that off, Gloss the area, Fresh Decal , Re sit it properly, Gloss over again and then matt. Did good few back in the day. Should of done one for myself! 6 1 Quote
DJ Dangerous Posted February 10, 2023 Author Posted February 10, 2023 Is "silvering" the term for the shine off the carrier film? 3 Quote
Westcorkrailway Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Either my 2nd favourite….or favourite livery for an 071. Call me bonkers if you will! 1 1 Quote

connollystn Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Chris & Co. have done a nice respray on those locomotives. Have to say that my favourite livery for the 071s is the Silver & Black, however, I prefer the appearance of the cabs without the grab handles - a lot neater looking. Wonder if it's to early for IRM to consider producing their version of this prototype, I'd say there's a lot of them about, still. 1 1 Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Yep Have to agree about the grab rails 1 1 1 Quote

DJ Dangerous Posted April 18, 2023 Author Posted April 18, 2023 Care package arrived today... Big thanks to @WRENNEIRE for four stunning coaches!!! Thanks also to whichever one of the IRM lads got a few Dicky Tara's for DJD Senior at the Rahen(e)y show. Whoever it was said that they were all gone, but told him to come back a bit later and they'd found a few for him! 8 Quote
DJ Dangerous Posted April 29, 2023 Author Posted April 29, 2023 Received this one a week or two ago but only got around to opening it today... Thanks, @Ironroad!!! 7 Quote
