  2. Same for the pots of Enamel, Always heat them up a tad.
  3. Traction mag again this month
  4. LOL! she was collecting me after spending a day on the river, could not loose the rag as I had to ask her the following week. Tis a 10 anyhow so not too bovered plus when it was me dads it had already had the attention of some pi$$ed up, Drugged up lout put in a load of car windows in the middle of no where but proceeded to attack my dads car with some patio chair and dented the hell outa it He got the mads as he got lost trying to find his way home from a neighbours party, Could it be proved...no but the cops picked this guy wandering around and dropped him into Mayfield...say now more...It bought the car from me dad as he has MS and it had low mileage...
  5. You should see the back of my Car after the missus backed into a wall last week, FFS depending on Beeps n cameras.... Awareness is going....
  6. Nearyl done, Just stumbled on the Aerials set up as these needed to be removable from the Main mast. I tried some very thin brass wire but could not get the tension I liked and when too taught snapped the mast white metal cross bar. In the end the Daughters jewellery box and a nice sized elastic thread came to the rescue. Oh yes the crew, These lads will have a big problem doing the Hoky Koky when it comes to the left arm.......say no more.
  7. Whats happening to me.....Irish Invasion.
  8. Crikey have not updated this in a while! Up to this stage now so here a few piccys, Gallows are in, Ratlines are complete, the Nav lights are in, The Aerials and done and a few other bits.
  9. "Explains why the Murphy Models 1916 set didn't fly off the shelfs" - Mostly cause people were not bothered with that set. I think was it late coming out too? Mr B's Thread says in 2018: "the Murphy Models MM1710 arrived at the Talbot Hotel Toy & Train Fair yesterday" Can't remember ever selling one in the Cork Shop. Did not float my boat either. I think the Selling the Fire engine on its tod would of been a better bet but It did have Dublin on it so..... Sets still for Sale in Rails for £45 notes..... The Rapido bus is looks massive over the Diecast Jobs IMHO.
  10. Theres Loads if Stuff Parked in Shannon!!
  11. Bummer Worth a try though!
  12. Looking well Noel!
  13. Looked at this review, Pleasant enough, she could basically cut the time in half, goes over the loco, explains this and that and goes over it then again and allocates a score instead of just dong the score in the first place. You will want a Degreaser when you get that loco back:) Now back to Canoe Technique's for me trip tomorrow!
  14. Seen on Twitsville today. May the Frothing begin! There is no U Class down in the West either as far as I know so lets rule that out. There is a 3-Cig though!
  15. For those that have the Book of faces this popped up on the missus feed as she is from there. Now consigned to memory, Track was ripped up. In glorious HD VHS. Crosshaven Notice Board | Not my video. Found this on utube a few years ago | Facebook

  16. If you are DCC worth checking the socket wiring on the Hornby one as some where done ...well..Ar$eways and could blow your chip. A Buddy of mine got one too and I had to change it around for him. A warning about the Hornby Adams Radial tank Loco wiring | Model Railway Forum (modelrailforum.com)
  17. Got enough 201's TBH I won't be buying anymore, Probably need to shed some of them. I like them though, very nice runner.
  18. Yeah, when I see the Baccy 47 and the Fans whizzing around that would of been the cream on top of the A. How I love to see them rotating as it is very visible. Min 2.38 in the Vid below. Obviously extra few bob involved sticking it in and the Deluxe 47 is a fairly hefty price tag.
  19. I have both the Oxford (ugh) and Hornby Adams Tanks. Your track has to be perfectly level for the oxford one to enable it to get around your track without treading water on the track.
  20. If it was all Irish it would be Dull as heck. Look at the continental stuff out there and the UK 009 stuff now coming out!! Some great mods. If you are part of a club that has Locos you can't get any more isn't it a bonus to get to play with them surely!
  21. I'd put me money on a C Class to be next, Loads of liveries to get the cash into the Shareholders pockets so they can get in a trip to Bray or even a Hunslet to go with the Coaches. Good few Liveries for that loco too. I would imagine an earlier DMU would pop out before a 22 due to the orange era being fairly popular with all the different motive power. A Tie up with the RPSI would be Fab and bang out a few Steamers that are currently on the grid as you could run them with your modern stuff and the lonely RPSI cravens and also the RPSI could benefit from a few bob from the models themselves with a bit of luck. Imagine a top range J15 all the bells and whistles....well just whistles, moving inside motion , flickering firebox glow, laser Scanned IRM Crew figures. Real coal. Sound....oh arrr missus. Could even licence a Great Train Robbery Pack with a Connery Figure and a full size model of Kent Station.
  22. Personally Not a great fan of these influencers TBH plus they dont half rabbit on!. She seems a daycent ol sort though. Ya man Sam was on the Hornby Program,I did chuckle when he blew the trip in his gaf whilst connecting up some super controller.
  23. No 1, better off putting these onto a Gloss Surfacem your grey wagon looks matt. I find you cant mix sol/set with Klear, it goes milky when together. Use an Enamel gloss varnish or Alclad gloss coat. It could be that the decals are probably too thin for the Red bottle, Maybe just try the blue, Pat down with Kitchen Towel. When it dies then coat with clear.
