nice photos, Very American feel about the whole setting!

This is a vid of it open... Brace yourself. and to bore you the Aviation hobby shop 1992 in glorious VHS quality. Bus ride is free.

Jeepers The old stomping ground, Use to get off the Tube in Northfields but would only get as far as the Spinning wheel for few bevs and then go back up to the station for last tube to Hounslow and never knew there was a model shop a few doors down!! the Pub now a shop Sadly, Still have some great memories. Used to go to West Drayton and the Aviation Hobby shop to get my stuff, that has gone too. Was not into the trains so much then. The Change of Demographics is stark in London. Before and after shots of the SW.

If you are in North east Cork area you are welcome to come and try the Dynamis and Z21 if you fancy.

If you are buying a system I would just go for a Z21 White. This system is pretty easy to use. controlled by Hand held unit or you can go using phone/tablet and has up to 30 functions to select. With locos now pushing over the 22+ now you might find some of the lessor systems wont cover all the functions. Ala the New Hunslet is at 22 functions. I have tried Hornby Select, Bachman Dynamis, NCE powercab and finally the Z21 and well happy with the 21. Noels gaugemaster infinity DCC controller has 68 functions! Best of luck with the move.

Windows Question = Masking Tape JB.

Quite a lot standing around the countryside for sure. This were a great source of refreshment in the 80's. I would love to see them coming back at some stage, Its a right let down when you pump them nothing happens. Always a highlight taking a sip from them. No bottles needed back then. One exception near me is in Bridebridge where the pump still works and draws water from the river. You can see the top of the pump on the google maps street level view.

Wonder why is it being featured on a British themed Layout? Plenty of Irish ones about like Tara J / Whiterock etc. Social media clout?

There is something beautiful about brasswork when its done like this. the roof holes, Were they pre done?

very tidy soldering Mol.

What did you expect lad. I enjoy Watching England play, probably due to some little familiarity of the players I reckon. I could not care a jot for any other team really, Perhaps the odd underdog. Hope they win it so I can watch the fall out!! LOL! Doubtful it will happen, sadly France I expect.....

Ah thats sad news indeed. Had a nice chat about continental NG in Wexford and as usual learnt a lot from the conversation! Always a stalwart of exhibitions and will be missed. https://rip.ie/death-notice/david-wynne-dublin-rathmines-635018

Hot dog that looks fab! Some run too! We can only dream!

bet you would get a nice scalding cuppa from that! Nice work!

Mmmm. Maybe I skip hoping for a price reductions and save up and get the missus a 4DD instead.
