Just a heads up on this, I am not doing it this year but handed it over to a Friend and fellow Modeller , Wayne Elmes, anyone interested in Displaying or selling contact info is below Official Booking now open for 01/02/2015 show, please contact me either corkmodelfair@gmail.com or call 021427710

The P2 is quite Impressive, got one for me Dad, Breakfast sound as well, There was no vegetarian option for him!! Great Value for sound but I think there not as realistic sounding as the dedicated decoders. The chuff sound did not really match the Speed but I may take a look at the CV Values and adjust something there when I get time. The Whistles and the Rest were spot on except for the Station masters Whistle which sounded like he had swallowed it!

Hi Lads, A Chap in Dublin has been onto me and has just started a DCC set up but is having a few issues. He is located in Dublin 12. Would there be anyone that could call out to him in the new year to take a gander and walk him though DCC operation. I have gone over stuff on the phone and he has the basics. He is operating a Hornby DCC Select, Has Hornby Set track and some point problems, there may be some Chipping of locos as well. I have met the chap as he called down to me from Dublin to Stick in some sound decoders and give him a operating session with the Select and he is an nice amicable chap. If anyone is interested please PM me and I will provide you with a number,

Sterling prices with crazy High Exchange rate form Chris Dyer, I would doubt it. 120 for a Chipped 141 is pretty good.

No downstairs Jacks..thats me out!! Fair play BTB..

You dont live in the country show at the .40sec mark for sure.

233 is the lucky loco.

finished the ol Flats, Test run as well and happy with em!! Found some Resin ones in the loft earlier so might make a go of those for comparison! The ol MIR Decals did their usual trick and disappeared into the Either when I put them into tepid water, It was like dealing with some 1000 year old Parchment, All the numbers just Crumbled up, Nearly took me an hour to put 12 decals one!!

Nothing wrong with Noels interpretation of the MRSI title. Maybe the MRSI need a Change of Name then to imply that it is not an All Ireland Association if its stuck on the Northside.. MRSNSOD sounds great...Good to see you in form Ed. Noel is rattling you bigo. Go Noel

Saw this at the Show in Dublin, Cracking stuff and the Dart Amazing...

Just trying to get these done for the IRRS show happening in Cork Monday night in the Metropole Hotel. These are MIR white metal Flats , Not a clinical as SSM effort for sure. Weighty though!! Every thing soldered on this bar the brass bearings for the wheel axles which were super glued on. Primer is on now so coupling hooks got on tonight if I don't fall asleep after marching around town today with the other 10k of people. Also a repaint into the Grey livery on one of the MM models 071s..number 078.

blast, four letter word getting in the way... work 25 notes is for nothing!!

looks fab, Could be an order on the Way John!!

Looks Great, is there seating in them? At 90 slobs a pop I will be holding off a while unfortunately.

Masterful, Love the info on the parts as well, Great info..on the question side those number DLK 06 etc what are they in relation to, Dundalk works? Love the way you tackled the Ladder support, If you have not copyrighted it I might use it on my next lot!!

Nice looking Model there Des, Glenderg did a Super Job, Missed that effort on his blog.

cheers, Maskol and a Toothbrush did the trick.

Few things finished this week. what to do next?...probably another 10 bubbles... Calling the MIR Cements done, Just a little Buffer Grease to go on. The Van Hool is finished.

Any show specials on BR Southern Stuff Not sure If I can make it this year

Came with the bus Des, Sunrise Now do loads of Bus stuff. Will be in touch for a Number plate for the KD ol stock. G

See the old Goods Shed have been finally Demolished... just the Station left now.

Hil Lads, Manage to grab a few more hours now that the kids are going to bed earlier so these are currently on the not much work bench at the moment. Should be kicking into 10 more bubbles next week, 2 MIR 071s and 2 huns.. The ballast wagons are shapeways and dapol chassis. Heavily weighed down the perform nicely, Even my Merchany Navy can pull em just about!! The dapol couplers are certainly not the best. Next up are the Familier MIR bubbles, There are the Resin Chassis versions, Just as about to finish them I discovered that the Waterslide decals were in fact Stickers for the Irish Cement Logos. Sneaky job to do that as you just could not use em, Decals were grabbed from Studio Scale Models range. Next up are a couple of Buses. A Ryan bus KS, A KC and a Van Hool from Jim Poots. Great kits these are in all fairness! Love doing them Finally a repaint and decaled Baccy 3F, Coal was still wet when I took the photo.

Still doing that, Post most of the stuff on Face Book these days as its much quicker loading up shots etc.... Link is here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Wonderful-weathering/111818828902939?ref=hl
