NoelG Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 A class (A23r) meets C class (B233) meets 181 class (B188). 1960s heaven. Thank you IRM/AS. What an incredible milestone to reach by producing your first model loco to such a high standard with sublime chassis performance. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted November 15, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 15, 2021 Hi everyone, We've finished our audits of cancelled orders and have also freed up some of the stock we kept behind for warranty repairs. All numbers apart from A3r are now back on sale in extremely limited quantities. So, if you had previously missed out on a running number... Bag yours here: https://irishrailwaymodels.co.uk/collections/locomotives Cheers! Fran 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those unsure about the IRM EMD soundchip, this is the perfect comparison, including the horns at each end sounding different, they had a very distinctive growl at high revs and this is heard several times throughout this video, starting at around the 6 minute mark. Depending on wind direction you could hear them a fair distance away, even miles......
