  1. I'd say there is a typo there somewhere!
  2. Thought instead of Separate entries just add in any articles you see in Mags here from now on. In this months Rail Express Irish Article about the Partition and the effect on the Railways. and this:
  3. Killer for sure Mr Pan.
  4. Dunno, Most people I'd say have Multiples of 071s, I would not be in a market for any more MM Diesels TBH. They took a while to shift too if I remember from my time in Marks, IRM was and is a big help in shifting locos now with the Rolling stock. As Murph said, If I wandered into a LMS and saw a coach for 100 notes which some of the Baccy ones are now reachingI would of said Nah Not for me.....OO anyhow, O Gauge a distinct possibility instead with Less stock Needed.
  5. Wow Fab Chart there Billy.
  6. It will have to how a Cast Iron Plate stating Robert Roche Iron works 2021! hidden somewhere! Ala:

  9. Seen this come in earlier on email, bit Lazy TBH, Sprayed over the Windscreens with no Wiper Effect and some other not really great coverage. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?tab=rm&ogbl#inbox/WhctKJWQpvbxlmLXQlTlMrHrkgxmFrrZTshjbnJKgKZlcmPhclgSVCBctMJWXHDtFmmvQPL
  10. Excellent, Well Done Robert, Cemented you place in Irish Railway Modelling history!
  11. Been Beavering away still, Never seems to progress there is so many little bits to do! The Carley float was a crap resin mold and the ropes were sanded smooth and replace with real rope and I also weathered the winch and stuck to rope on it too
  12. Sorry just seen this now, I got posted a packet of Washers from Dublin for the fix.

  14. Yes 1986 , Me Dad took me Mam for a spin on it. I was not invited!! It was only 2.50 for a spin, That would of been 12 mars bars. She can't do in now as it is classed as an international voyage and need more stuff onboard to cover insurance and safety than would be worth it. Shame.
  15. That one worked all ok
  16. Thanks for the comments chaps. Would be nice if it did with some steam pouring out and sound! here's Anchor Windlass in action on the Waverly on a trip to the Thames Forts which seems ages ago, Well worth the money which is pretty reasonable. Got up early to see her leaving the Sunday morning after out trip. Check here out. A Great day out https://waverleyexcursions.co.uk/ MVI_5144.MOV MVI_5141.MOV
  17. Winch way to go! Two days it took me to solder this up. nice bit of kit. Need to tidy it up a bit before painting, Pretty complicated build. just need to fit the Eccentrics next and she is done.
  18. Looks Smart along with a big red Target to aim at!
  19. I saw a bit of this and did not bother watching anymore. Tried the Yesterday Channel with a new Program 'Secrets of the Transport Museum', Christ almighty it is an hour made up of about 10 mins max interesting stuff. However is you are ever down that way the Museum is well worth a days viewing. Loads of buses down there too. Much better than watching TV. https://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/explore/london-bus-museum
  20. Nice one, First Steam Railway I ever Visited @ 1 Y/O. No Sign of the Captain though, Perhaps he was on a ship!
  21. Cracking stuff Noel, you must be well chuffed!
  22. Hope the container cost rise does not effect your bottom line on these yokes and possibly affect future developments, Kick in the teeth if it did and all the good work wasted. I always wonder what the people making these in China think of us, all these good little boys in Ireland getting some toy trains to play with when in reality it is.....Well we know don't we....;)
  23. LOL! I reckon that Sams Trains have the get the unboxing exclusive rights for the A class, 1 day long special ( Guinness book of records attempt)
  24. Smashing Noel, Where did you purchase these from? "self adhesive cable keeps"
  25. I missed this too, Flipping kids gettting in the way... Arrgh.
