Good quality bogies, have yet to install them and give them a good workout on my layout

Excellently moulded and detailed wagon bogies for Irish rolling stock.

Exzctly what I was looking for

A very useful accessory pack to have, really well finished and great value, great work IRM.

Superb runners with excellent detail

These bogies are great replacements for my older wagons with the same bogie type.

These are a neat pack of four bogies for Irish stock. The wheels are ultra free wheeling in the tiny bears which are set into revolving axle boxes (lots of spares included in baggie). Yes, you read that correctly, rotating boxes. These are also very well moulded and detailed, and the splash of colour adds that little extra touch of finesse to then. Though they are a push on fit to rolling stock, they are quite tight. A pinch or two on the two locating lugs is needed first, but be careful as they can be brittle. They do look better on my Tara Mines Stock.

Bogie wagon packs come in handy for spares to replace trouble trucks or any that are broken or lost. I had a minor fault with one of my Tara Mine wagons. A small part was missing beneath an axle box, but instead of that tiny piece being sent out to me or just one bogie. I was actually sent a full pack of four. These bogies are slightly different in that parts of them are colour painted to highlight the spring details etc. Whereas my wagons as bought are all plain black. I didn't pull the tiny piece I needed of one of the replacements in case I broke anything else. I opted to change the two bogies on my faulty Tara. These replacement painted bogies really stand out with the blue livery. That when I make another I will buy further packs to change my other eight wagons to them. I could paint the bogies myself, but I have shakey hands, and I may not get a correct colour match for the new painted set. So thanks anyway to IRM for the superb maintenance service.
