Interesting- never knew or saw a 071 with an Ammonia set, ever.
-
In that livery, it would have hauled: Passenger: Cravens / Mark 2 / Mark 3. Freight: Tara Mines / Container Liners Flats / Sugar Beet / Fertilizer (?) / Cement / HOBS etc Might be easier to say what they weren't hauling! (Ammonia Wagons!)
-
Maybe l'm ahead of my time- l already love stuff like the 201's & the Mark III's
-
I never mind losing, or having faded letters or different shades on stock as @DiveController said, it's realistic!!
-
Hi As a pretty anonymous building over by Platform 10, any clear photos of the Heuston Singal Equipment Room (SER)? Am looking to model something like it if any suggestions, but it's difficult to get a decent photo of it especially from the track side. Rob.

Wondering what is going on in when you see workers with a long iron hook walking slowly alongside the container flats at North Wall, poking at some of the couplings (but not all)? They take out the security chain aswell presumably to enable the containers be unloaded but wondering about the hook?
-
Great pic- 'Bell' everywhere & 'Freightliner' thrown in- Is there an approx date on this?

Hi. Any ideas where you'd get a OO Gauge Container Stacker (Yellow) similar to the Hyco Boss model that was used in North Wall (and elsewhere in Irish Rail freight yards)- see photo thanks to Ernie attached? Cheers. Rob.
-
Anywhere handy to pick up the Kadee 231 dry graphite powder? Haven't used it before...
-
Looking to gather together containers that were common in lreland around 2000 - 2010, couple of videos / photos from then show a lot of 'Norfolk Line' 40ft containers, but they seem hard to source- any suggestions where l might pick some up? (OO Gauge)
-
Amazing- brilliant in every way!! Great to see these shots!
-
I'm still waiting in D8 after booking at Raheny last year . Jealous of ye that got them first but am sure they are near- will be worth the wait no doubt so no worries.
-
Just wondering what the best quality / most realistic Freight Containers (OO Gauge) 40ft or 20ft, that people think are out there? Given the arrival of the 42ft Flats, if one wanted to vary the containers carried, what site is best? Any views are welcome!
-
Thankfully mine arrived from them last week, it is excellent!

Any photos?

Presume these will fit the container flats ? Similar for any of the C-rail intermodel containers, they fit too?
-
'Shorties' were the Mark 3's produced by Hornby for smaller layouts to fit more on. They differed from the 'correct' real life version in that they were too short (obviously!) and the Standards had 7 windows instead of 8. The doors are 'wrong' aswell but no model has the correct door config. for the lrish version. Whatever suits though l guess!
-
Looks great- we don't see enough Mark 3's so always great to see them!
-
Looks great! Would love to see any Mark 3's !
-
Brilliant- love these scenes!

Yeah, echo the above points. Eight windows on the Standards is the accurate numbers for IÉ version although the doors won't be accurate as @NIRCLASS80 says- go for what works on your layout & practice on a Hornby shortie first. Good luck & look forward to seeing the work!
