RMweb Gold Darius43 Posted December 8, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 8, 2021 Hi Keiran, Nice weathering on those blue Taras. I received a few packs from IRM recently and they do look too vividly blue out of the box. Yours look fantastic. Cheers Darius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirley Posted December 8, 2021 Author Share Posted December 8, 2021 Thanks Darius, yes they looked too shiny and bright to me out of the box, this is what they were like after a while in operation. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Csalem Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 I remember being at Inchicore 150 Open Day in 1996 and was surprised to see the ex-works Tara wagon. I had always assumed they were that zinc-brown colour they are always seen in, and never occured to me any other colour could be underneath. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the later versions were painted red oxide after they realised the blue colour did not last. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
