D6975 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 IE and original grey to start with. At least I'll have a little time to save up for IR ones after buying the IE ones. Given recent developments on the price front from Bachmann et al I shudder to think what these are going to cost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accurascale staff Accurascale Fran Posted March 6, 2019 Accurascale staff Share Posted March 6, 2019 Hi everyone, CAD for the 121s has popped up, delivery in the summer. Exciting times! https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/topic/5750-class-121/?do=findComment&comment=118653 No connection of course, but if it wasn’t for Paddy we wouldn’t have a business and lots of people ask us about the 121, so now they don’t have to! Cheers! Fran 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hopefully all this stuff from both MM and IRM will be released on time without the usual delays. Similar MM cad images were shown over a year ago to a Dublin club, hopefully the CADs will become real Models later this year. It’s been a long wait in the dark but hopefully the 121 will have been worth the wait and exceed previous locos for detail, features and precision running. Can’t wait to run a pair in consist nose2nose (ie a B&T and ST pair). MM effectively created the Irish model scene single handedly and this loco would be a fitting event marking the completion of one mans journey of persistence to bring proper scale models of Irish prototypes to the market. This final GM model completes the circle CIE started in 1961 and finished in 1995. Edited March 20, 2019 by NoelG 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

south_tyne Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 If the 121 is of similar standard to the 141 then it will be worth the years of waiting! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgeconna Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 A Delay would be great for myself being selfish or course!!. I wonder will they sit on the shelves liek the 071 in marks and be knocked down by 20 or so notes some time after like the 071's currently are.

Similar MM cad images were shown over a year ago to a Dublin club, Thanks Noel. But was the very end of October 'over a year ago'?? Not by my calendar. Delays can happen, and are regrettable, but whilst an inconvenience to the modeller, they are an even bigger pain and an expensive cost to the manufacturer. Cheers!

WrennEire Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Jesus Noel give it a rest man Its like Christmas, everyone knows its coming but we just have to wait As we speak the first tooling is in progress with a pre production sample by the end of April, all going well Worst case scenario is the October 3 day show with our friends in the SDMRC but quite possibly beforehand Might ask him to launch it at the Bray gig, take the wind out of a few of the big boys!!!

Junctionmad Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Paddy had taken a stand at WMRC easter exhibition in the hope of displaying the engineering samples. Unfortunately he confirmed that that is delayed a bit into the summer, so more power to his elbow and we see some samples soon dave 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for the past 30 years I have donned the red suit every Christmas eve continuing a family tradition. Tis mad but its great fun and to see the excitement on the faces of little ones. Sing a few carols and then away up the chimney. This christmas with MM 121s and IRM A classes arriving I'll be the child receiving lovely Christmas gifts. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
D6975 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) Some photos of actual test mouldings are now on the Murphy Models website. Due October-ish it says. Christmas pressies from me to me The big gaps are a combination of where etches are going to go I assume, and what looks like a lift off roof panel to access the chip holder, just like the 201. http://www.murphymodels.com/Class-121-Loco.html Edited August 9, 2019 by D6975 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
