Trains have wings?


Sorry

Hi,
These models have been delayed due to livery discrepencies.
A good point has been made about the models being almost sold out.
Anyone interested in any should contact the model centre in ennis in ireland as they have no problem posting and have an offer on these locos.
They can be contacted at modcen@esatclear.ie
They also have some of the mk.II coachsets from lima in IE livery left aswell as the executive coaches.
Cheers

QUOTE Bring on Co-Co diesel!
I'd rather see a set of the DMUs (in gutted orange plastic seat trim) that used to rattle up and down the Dublin suburban line but that's probably too big an "ask" of Murphy Models at this stage in their development.

Hi all,

Got two of these in post the yesterday, all I can say is WOW, These things are realy the bees Knees.

The detail is sweet, Instruction sheet is informative, Running is smooth, the lights are cool and the wife is mad, 'Are these for your dad' she said. When I said no - all I got was Picture, no sound!!. Wait till the next 10 arrive!! Looking forward to the Black an Tan Colour Scheme.

I Had a small track laid out last night to give them a bit of run along with my Class 121 and by god what a sight. Lovely. (Never thought I be saying that about a diesel though!!)

All I need now is a decent layout to run em and a sound chip to annoy the other half!! He He!!

Regards

QUOTE There a selection of cravens coming out later this year to accompany these engines so it will be an expensive year for the Irish modellers!!

but think how many years they've had to save a nest egg against the day there was actually something to buy

Also, just to make things that bit better/more expensive, the RPSI have just announced that they are now taking orders for their 3 coach sets (Murphy Models partnership with Bachmann M2's).

Here is a photo of a preproduction sample:

For more information PM me as the order form is not yet on their website.
