Nearing the Finish line with the Autoballaters, These are gonna be Network Rail so sorry bout the BR Content!! Great kits though, Maybe we will see an Irish rake on Wellington Bheag someday...Come on Paul!!!! Taken with a point and shoot after I applied a few decals. They will be finished with a final gloss coat and then a Matt coat on top. G

Good idea that IRM do a Show though...Can be done with helpfrom the Clubs etc.

It did not run today from what I heard, Leaving tomorrow 11am Apparently. The points issue in near Limerick caused the delay. I am sure there will be a few heads managed a few photos..I will be at......Work.

Another Small bit done over the last two hours... Kinda Therapeutic this etch is... Tim for bed now..

Looks like you got a nice haul, The wagon should be no problem to yourself!!

Great day today, Wife at work, Kids away so I made a Start in the tranquil peace I had on these. These are kits from the N gauge Society of the Familiar Autoballasters however these may not be Irish, probably Railtrack but I will throw it on here as these are used on IR and some folks may be tempted or unaware these are available. You have to join the N gauge Socieyy to Purchase these and they have a fantastic kit selection and some RTR. They came to me like this: The formidable etch: The underside of the Wagon: and its in place but not glued: The End Supports in place: thats it for now.

great stuff Glenderg on the ABs....Tricky buggers it seems!.

Thanks lads for the info.

Thanks GFG, The problem I have or hear really is internal corrosion with bits inside rattling about so eventually these will rust away it seems, Even if the rust was polished off and some laquer put on. I dunno...

This thread reminded me of these two things I had in the shed, Got them off a chap that I done some work on his layout a year of 2 ago. Does any one know the colour of the Staff rod as I would like to restore them. I imagine it was black and the brass was usually polished?
