Lovely! In the first photo, a GNR brake van which appears in several photos of the CBSCR around 1959-60. Always nice to see a good clear photo of one of the Wedgehead railcars, short-lived in original form. 2660 also seems to have been a regular in West Cork. -

Applying waterslide transfers over rivets/raised detail is bascially a case practice and suitable preparation and selection of suitable transfers, wetting agents & varnish/sealant. N Scale Lehigh Valley Diesel. One my pride and joy, very much a hard worked 'layout loco' I finished the loco in LV livery about 25 years ago using Microscale waterslide decal set, incl black/white nose/pilot stripes s, Micro-Set (wetting setting agent) Micro-Sol (solvent/softner) around details/irregular surfaces. Loco painted in a gloss aerosol red then, then finished with a semi matt aerosol. Paint did not adhere too well to handrails which were molded in a black flexible plastic. 4mm Ranks Ireland wagon (Enlargement shows up the blemishes!) Decals comissioned from Railtec Transfers, Humbrol Decalfix (recommended by Railtec, Micro-Set Micro-Sol incompitaible). Main challenge was applying large RANKS (Ireland) Ltd element of decal due to its sheer size, applied RANKS (Ireland) Ltd as 3 separate decals! (Ireland) after applying the two larger decals! Again model first spray painted grey with a gloss finish and then sealed with a matt/semi-matt finish once decals had dried out I originally intended to have the decal pad printed comercially, but printer declined to print further wagons after pad printing the initial batch of 20T Brake Vans -

Agreed. Behind the TPO appears to be a newish laminate or else 1951-3 era CIE standard. The DSER coach would only be there to carry mailbags. -
Considering what looks like a bogie TPO behind (What's behind the TPO?), this is almost certainly the Day Down Galway Mail, hence the DSER 6-wheeler. Another picture of 58M that I've come across is at Dun Laoghaire, so quite likely they were used on the Mails as parcel vans. https://www.flickr.com/photos/irishrailwayarchive/53505927307/in/photolist-2pZjzJC-2pBSwtg-2pwq5Ez-2psSuR3-2pwDaP5-2pwDaMX-2qEc2YJ-2qE9Shu-2qEb3Ce-2pwxJ7s-2pwqE1Z-2pw8S54-2qE5gB1-2qEb3Cj-2qEb7ui-2qE9RYJ-2qEb3zZ-2qEb3Cz-2qE9Sh4-2qEb7d1-2qEb7tb-2qEb7sp-2qEb7sz-2qEc35v-2pwhEwX-2pwDWU6-2pvqF9J-2pvGAQ2-2pvqF9D-2pworPQ-2psKGyC-2pvvcXt-2qUMPJb-2pqXpd1-2pwqDdm-2pqVXnZ-2pwo4GF-2pw8S4c-2pvFNZ7-2pvFNZc-2pvHn8b-2pworPV-2pwqDdg-2pBRPZ9-2pBT3Pn-2qEc2YZ-2pwnd8i-2pwDWUb-2qE5gv9-2qEb7pP
