Warbonnet Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 Hi everyone, Now the As have been out in the wild almost a year and settled down nicely, we can sell off the very last of the warranty stock we held back in reserve for any replacements required (we are quite conservative on this to ensure everyone was covered! And don't worry, we still have some kept as spares etc which will not get sold off, and we do have lots of spares still) So, pretty much all running numbers are back on sale in very, very limited numbers. Fill yer boots, as this is 100%, last chance saloon: https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/a-class-locomotive Cheers!

John-r Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 What a fantastic achievement, all the A class now gone on the IRM website. For such a niche market as Irish Railways is, this is some feat, the boys took a chance on this, we took a chance on the boys pulling it off knowing they would , Win Win for us all. Onwords and upwards as they say, thanks lads for all of this. All this came about because I just figured out how the sound works on my A class, it's something else 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgeconna Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Just wondering if anyone's Stay alive has stopped working? Lift it off the track and stops dead? Running no affected though.

Colin R Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Given that this batch of A's has sold very well, dare I wonder if a second batch might happen at some point in the future but with different numbers and colour schemes?

BEANO3005 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Indubitably is an adverb that means “impossible to doubt.” It has a meaning similar to doubtless and undoubtedly, but it represents a much stronger degree of certainty Edited January 20, 2023 by BEANO3005 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murphaph Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I've probably not run my A's long enough to see the failure George. I am interested to hear what it turns out to be though. Hopefully just a dry joint somewhere in the chain. Have you tried a different decoder first? The ESU stay alives are a three wire job I think so in theory the decoder could be gone bad as well. It's not a simple capacitor connected across the potential of the rails AFAIK. There's a bit more too it because big fat capacitors work as stay alives but they also swallow the ack pulses from the motor when programming so they have to be switched out of the circuit then. The three wire ones use some charging and discharging circuitry on the decoder and therefore don't need to be isolated during programming like simple caps do.

BosKonay Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 we won’t be making more A’s this year or next year but the year after that is quite likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
