Picked up my two A’s today!

They are absolutely stunning. Sadly I only had time to pop the decoders in and give them a bit of run, but first impressions are fantastic. One thing that struck me is the quality of the sound from the speaker set up. The lads at IRM have outdone themselves.

I collected my locos earlier today from the Depot! I have to say the packaging is first class and streets ahead of anything I have seen before! See attached photos. They are solidly protected all round with absolutely no 'wriggle room'! Hats off to Noel & Pat in Parcel Planet for not only checking that my order was correct, but then going in search of my other three orders (which were originally going to be posted to me), which they then found! And hats off also to IRM for investing in the high quality packaging! I have only looked at two so far and they are jaw dropping! Cannot wait to get them out on the road!! Really well done to all in IRM!

Hi everyone,

Just a quick reminder. If you want to collect your order please contact IRM direct sales@irishrailwaymodels.com with your order number first so we can book it in for you. Please do not contact Parcel Planet directly as they are not equipped to deal with on spec turn ups or phone calls from IRM customers. 

(This is not directed at @fishplate7 as he had arranged collection correctly, but we have been contacted by the warehouse team about other customers turning up or contacting them unannounced!)

Appreciate your cooperation in this everyone!

Cheers!

I will say I was impressed with the box, plastic outer sleeve so the box is not scuffed or beaten to a pulp like so many other models, large box due to thick foam insert, outer plastic sleeve on formed plastic enclosure, the space between the holding the bag of bits. The molded plastic enclosure holds the loco securely at specific structural points, leaving finer parts suspended out of contact with anything else. The contact points are padded with moleskin to prevent scuffing where it contacts the model. But, yes, we might need a bigger boat ... lol

I only got one of the dark lined green because I couldn't remember how many of them actually got that livery. Anyone know the details?

Two of mine are leaving DHL Brussels shortly, so hoping for a similar turnaround of 5-6 days to Hobart, Tasmania. DHL Express seem to be really strong performers in IRL - Australia parcels.

IRM seem to be shipping the locos individually, even if two or more in an order.

That’s the default yes but we can merge on request. Drop us a line if anyone has multiples unsent and we can combine.

That explains my partially fulfilled order. The remaining two will get here eventually. Not bothered if they arrive singly.  Thanks

Is it going to be the default practice to send all items singly from now on with DHL Express or is it just a one off for the A's? How will the forthcoming Taras be shipped, for example?

Apologies for any confusion gentlemen - If you ordered 4 A's on a SINGLE Order, we'll ship 4 locos in the box. If you ordered 4 A's over 4 Orders, the default will be that you get 4 parcels.

We ship complete orders at a time, not single locos :)

Same here, Mail Sent.

Asking for a friend, the standard decoders for the A, When will you envisage this coming back into stock?

 

You can get them here if needed.

https://www.modellbahnshop-lippe.com/Digital/Decoder+without+sound/ESU-59659/gb/modell_330091.html

They are the recommended non sound decoder for the A class.

I ordered two last week & they arrived this morning via UPS.

Hi everyone,

Just a quick update; we are powering though the pre-orders best we can, but we can see it taking another 5 working days to clear the backlog, such is the demand for these beauties. We are going as quick as we can, all hands are on deck, but emails asking "where is my order?" is just slowing the process down really. If you havent had any tracking information for your pre-order by this time next week then by all means, email us, but in the meantime we will plough on and get them out as quick as we can. Thank you for your continued patience and we are sure you agree that the finished models are worth the wait! 

Should you be looking to merge orders, than by all means let us know!

Cheers!

Fran
