Paul’s rendition of the summer 1959 timetable was most interesting and enlightening. I did a similar exercise when the SLNCR was still running its freight and passenger trains to and from Enniskillen, even more train movements. Stephen

You continue to feed us lovely photos of the old Irish railway network. Long may it continue. Stephen

I have a couple of Silver Fox 101’s and I am very pleased with them. They are very heavy with excellent slow running. Stephen

Heljan, Accurascale’s recent acquisition, produce a model of the GWR diesel railcar, the forerunner to the GNR/CIE railcars. Bearing this in mind, maybe Heljan should be looking into the Irish variant. Stephen

Wasn’t the RPSI preserved 121 painted in this livery for a brief period of time? Stephen

The triple track west of Waterford was originally two tracks towards Limerick Junction and one towards Dublin. In later years there were three single lines towards Dublin, Limerick Junction and Mallow. The latter period would have been a lovely one to model to just watch trains go by. Stephen

A nice piece of fiction but very convincing. Stephen

So sorry to hear the news. I’ve suffered flooding but fire is a different thing altogether. It takes no prisoners but at least you and yours are ok. Stephen

A lovely tribute, Leslie. Stephen

I haven’t seen any mention of the scale. Whatever it is, the whole scene is quite delightful. What about North Wall (MGWR)? Stephen

Where can we get new number transfers, I have two class 141’s looking for new numbers? Stephen -
The 7mm J18 is currently not shown on the Alphagrafix website. Interesting. Stephen
-
Surely it’s a mk3 EGV. Stephen

It is an incredible resource which I frequently delve into. Stephen

What is more likely is that he does it for a living, lucky chap. Stephen

Wasn’t the use rail transport a condition of the original planning permission! What has changed apart from the current unavailability of rail transport due to ongoing works in the port of Dublin? Stephen
-
The tender is wrong, should be the same as on the N. Maybe Rapido will donthis version at a later date. Also, the K1a appears to be more an Irish N with 6’ 0” drivers rather than an Irish U. Strange. Stephen
-
They’ve also announced the Southern U class 2-6-0, which has the potential for a GSR K1a version. Unfortunately, the tender is wrong, the N/K1 is correct. Stephen
-
Yup, both Mark’s Models and Rails of Sheffield have them to order. Stephen
-
Let’s hope it can be restored to working, nice to hear a Sulzer in the midst of all the GM’s. Stephen
-
Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t there a second 4-8-0t, no 901, while 900 ran as a 4-6-2t for a while by disconnecting the back pair of driving wheels. Their primary role was banking heavy freight trains up the long bank from Kingsbridge, as it was then, to Inchicore. Stephen

Lovely photos but I’m not sure what you’ve actually done, or am I being just plain dim. Stephen
