The Model Railway Society of Irelands first Virtual Exhibition will be beginning shortly at the link below https://www.facebook.com/MRSIExpo/ Plenty to come over the coming 3 days, MRSI layouts past and present

What's that

Hi all Due to the current Covid19 situation the Model Railway Society of Ireland have taken the sad and reluctant decision to cancel the Dublin October Bank Holiday weekend show for 2020 We intend to host a 2 day show in Spring 2021 if and when the situation improves Naturally we are very disappointed about this but it is out of our control Stay Safe Everyone

Other stuff too like the side the exhaust port is on, 59001-4 have it on the opposite side to the rest I just hope given the longer development period its a model worth the wait

Knew I'd seen that design before somewhere....

You can actually go 10 higher, as 90001-90025 all rolled off the production line in Intercity Swallow Another excuse to do some modelling

Or the humored mob who did nothing but laugh at him.....and his more easily led followers

Lets pull this one out again Its out by one day, but on the 4th of June 2019 the liquidators moved in

Different version to Bachmanns though...

Same for the IPA Car transporter wagons. If they were 'dumbed down' with less detail - people wouldnt buy them If they were made as they were previously with a higher price - people wouldnt buy them Dont forget Accurascale and Revolution are both very small enterprises compared to Bachmann, you wouldnt need to take your socks off to count the number of employees for both firms combined

A unique member of the fleet - the only one fitted with Air brakes, the pipes visible under the large headboard

Try H+A Models as they have taken over whats left of Genesis kits https://www.hamodels.net/genesis-kits.html

A great show as always, thanks to the organisers as ever. First time to exhibit a 'local' (non Irish) layout overseas and it was very well received. Heres one of our guys being put on the spot about the layout

They do the Sierra but it is the Sapphire shape and a Cosworth. Would much prefer the 1.6 GL or 2.0 GLX Executive etc They also do a nice model of the Mk2 Cavalier hatch Not sure how true it is, but certain manufacturers may not allow Oxford to make models of their more 'forgettable' models too. I'd love to see more bread and butter 80's and early 90's cars
