That’s a sentence you’ll never read on TripAdvisor

Where do you get your etched works / loco nameplates from?
Galteemore replied to Jamie Davis's topic in Irish Models
Diane Carney worth a try ? -
FDR - hope the DCDR and ITG team will take his advice tonight - earned it!
-
Kudos to Downpatrick and ITG. As Theodore Roosevelt said….

Great work John. Those live steam models are worth looking after as they do age well. This is my brother’s 0-6-0T out for a run last month,35 years old now.

For a few euro you can download the report from CORE/Companies House….

What also helps, as with Peter Denny, John Ahern and indeed your own stuff David, is that everything on the layout from locos to buildings is painted by the same eye, so to speak. This gives a natural blending from the get go.

Fab Alan. I think Iain Rice used to employ such a wash over everything to blend it all together

Front cover of MRJ beckons!

RPSI 1142, which is a corridor 1st, is close to this style. Downpatrick have a GSWR 3rd but don’t think it’s gangwayed
-
Thanks @Mol_PMB - quite agree. I’m just coming at it from the perspective of a scratchbuilder and someone conscious of his own mortality An IRM C class could be 5 years off….

Ideal opportunity for a skilled 3d print tech to come up with a C class body for a proprietary chassis @Past-Avenue?? @Killian Keane??

Nice view of SLNC bay. Unusual to capture a GN shunt over there. Notice it’s a mixed rake with SLNC stock. The pic will have been taken early afternoon as the 1115 goods from Sligo has arrived - this is probably the 1:45 railbus. The combat indicator for this timing is the coach sitting in the bay. This means that the 7:20 to Sligo will be steam tonight

Just winging it Patrick, but knew you’d cotton on to it.

Looks fabulous Leslie. But would it fit on the Dundalk traverser?
-
Fabulous work - well done !
-
Great effort - well done. Nice to see the homegrown range of Irish models on show too. As for the loco itself, you will always get satisfaction from building it and putting your stamp on it. To paraphrase an old Chinese dictum, the craftsman who makes a cabinet has a deeper joy than the collector who buys it.

Certainly looks more like a power station than a shirt factory, which was Derry’s staple industry
-
Great. Nicely captures that NCC/UTA look
-
my note to self - next time you’re tempted to build an engine, just see if Alan is free to take on a commission! Brilliant work.
-
Bachmann Scenecraft do a stone cottage style building which, if whitewashed, might be close. Would also be a really easy scratch build tbh.
-
Amazing. I’m getting flashbacks now to my 83-89 years….the hours I spent on those (the school had 2). You way wish to add the distinctive damage marks from stones thrown in the Limestone Road each day. This, as you know, bisected the peace line, and the bus was stoned from both sides. The Catholics stoned it because it was seen as a Protestant bus, and the Protestant kids stoned it for being a grammar school bus! Fabulous work Darius.

Looking well Patrick - nicely edged
-
In fairness the site host confesses a lack of knowledge of Irish stuff and pleads forgiveness. His/her GNRI section has some gems, including a gleaming QL about to leave Dublin whilst a Compund simmers in the distance.
