Sails Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 All, Anyone know if the Wathers 40' containers will fit OK on the IRM liners? They are HO scale so not sure what they would look like. Mark Quote
Blaine Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 They will fit but will be noticeably smaller and lower. Look at the C-Rail stuff for decent OO Containers 3 Quote
Noel Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 HO won't fit. As Blaine suggests C-Rail. Also Provincial Wagons have a CIE 20ft container and I understand IRM may sell containers in the future as accessories. C-Rail have 20ft and 40ft. 2 Quote
DiveController Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Agree, C-rail is the way to go. As Blaine says they will just not look right https://www.c-rail-intermodal.co.uk Edited July 14, 2020 by DiveController 2 Quote
Sails Posted July 14, 2020 Author Posted July 14, 2020 Thanks for the feedback everyone, suspected as much and C rail would have been first preference but I'm currently in Asia and not too many retailers provide courier deliveries from the UK and the two I use dont stock C Rail. I'll just have to order the C Rails for delivery back to the UK abode and wait to pick them up. Quote
DiveController Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) @Arran of this forum owns C-rail. Maybe send him a PM for possible options? Edited September 7, 2020 by DiveController 1 Quote

Mark The Bell and P&O containers we provided in the initial liner run were C-Rail manufacture, and the flats are designed to accommodate any of their items, HTH! Quote
murphaph Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 Can anyone advise which of the C Rail containers would carry the correct livery for a mid 90s layout? I'm guessing not all of the available containers would have actually been seen on Irish rails. 1 Quote

murphaph Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 @Arran maybe you could reply here for the benefit of the wider forum? 1 Quote
DJ Dangerous Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 If Arran were able to introduce a date filter on his site, eg start date and end date, that would make things even easier. 2 Quote
