PaulC 76 Posted Monday at 08:34 PM Stunning looking. Is that a generic design they’ve produced or one to your specifications? Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Railer 80 Posted yesterday at 11:06 AM (edited) Wow, Really love the old Boston sidings and the Inspection car. You really captured the look of the place and surrounding area. Almost surreal, really amazing work. And the Trinity College new Bioscience building still a construction site. I actually worked in fitting out some of those floors haha.

iarnrod 60 Posted 23 hours ago (edited) That's pure class. Love it. Work close to there, and that's an amazingly good resemblance to that stretch of track alright. Edited 23 hours ago by iarnrod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PaulC 76 Posted 16 hours ago Kinda wished I hadn’t seen those now! Incredible work, the detailing is superb, the buildings magnificent, the raised trackwork impeccable. Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PJR 57 Posted 16 hours ago I'm gobsmacked superb modeling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glenderg 258 Posted 15 hours ago From an architectural point of view, the capture of the buildings is stonking good. The trackwork even could pass for 21mm. I'm only looking at this on mobile, but I'm goddamened looking forward to seeing it on the big screen when I get home. This is epic good, and deserves a spread in a magazine. Love the fart box too! 😆 Richie 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iarnrod 60 Posted 15 hours ago (edited) Love the photo of the blocks of flats. Such a Dublin design that you can't but identify where it is set. For me, this is the best Irish layout I've seen to date. The modelling is absolutely sublime. Be interested in finding out how long this took to build, considering its large size.

Mayner 100 Posted 13 hours ago (edited) Wow! I heard rumors about the successor project to Greystones several years ago. If anything you have raised the standard of urban modelling even higher, its been well worth the wait!!!!!!!!!! John Edited 6 hours ago by Mayner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jhb171achill 342 Posted 12 hours ago Warb, I am speechless. How has this one remained secret! Your layout is among the top masterpieces I've ever seen. An urban setting is rarely done with convincing scenery. Everything about that - the setting, proportions, atmosphere and accuracy is absolutely top class. Well done! Maybe more about your locos and stock? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
