    Just got one in from Galteemore Snr. Wow. What a book. Wonderful reproduction.

    The liability question is most interesting. British Railways Board had a considerable number of closed properties on its books until 2013, including Chelfham Viaduct on the L and B, a line which closed some 13 years before BR even existed - British Railways inherited the Southern’s liability. The SLNC liquidators managed to sell off the NI assets within a year or so of closure, but struggled for quite a while to sell Weirs Bridge as it would have cost any contractor so much to dismantle.

    Interesting to see how quickly some lines were lifted. I think my dad was still catching lifting trains around the Irish North in Fermanagh in 1960, lines which closed over 2 years before the CDR! The Cavan and Leitrim was also ripped up quite quickly.

    He’s built some nice diesels and a. WT etc - don’t have pics, sorry. It’s coach 50. And I think you know him - he’s been around the RPSI since about 1968!

    You’ll know the gent, seen here at Whitehead Model Railway day….he’s part of the T track group with MikeO who posts here.

    Looks like this one Colin….https://www.hattons.co.uk/26598/bachmann_branchline_44_250_brick_signal_box_irish_/stockdetail

    Nice. The RAF variant Harrier tends to be much better known given its high profile on CAS work in the early Op HERRICK rotations before the GR4s came in. That’s a lovely model and nicely shows off the distinctive FAA features.

    Lovely classic mix Ernie - thanks ! The wagon at extreme right in the Bundoran express pic is most interesting. It contains a load from the Whiteabbey Bleaching Company - Henderson’s. This firm had a private siding, and one of the owning family is an excellent modeller of N scale Irish stuff.

    Thanks Ken - don’t worry - wasn’t suggesting War and Peace! Something more like the old railway works drawing books which just contain key dimensions and detail differences. Will PM ….

    Cheers Ernie. That must be one of the early Mogul trips down south. They had her very nicely turned out!
  13. Galteemore
    So good to ‘see’ you back here Ernie. Full cut off and light regulator for a while!

    Clearly Angus is getting on better with the press than I did at first. On many nights I was ready to chuck it down those stairs!!
  15. Galteemore
    Nice, fine work Angus. Will really show on the finished model. The trusty GW press…. just taken mine out of its box this week for an upcoming task. What a great little gadget it is.

    Ken / bit of a cheeky question but would it possible to purchase a ‘DSE Drawing Book’ ? I’m not sure I want to pitch your fine wagons side by side with my efforts but I’d love to have a go at scratch building a few with your most helpful drawings - esp if there was a bespoke 7mm version. Cheeky question but just felt I had to ask

    This is very impressive Adrian. And you’re quite right ~is amazing what skills you can develop on the way. Although to be fair it looks as if you had quite a few skills already honed!
  18. Galteemore
    An enticing development - looks great now but will look even better when your backscene goes in! The globe lamp looks good - what’s its provenance?
  19. Galteemore
    Really nice bit of work - you should be pleased with that
  20. Galteemore
    Yes I’ve had problems with a Hornby one like that. I don’t think they are designed for a long life or serious modelling use. Gaugemaster are great - with a lifetime guarantee. This is a great starter one. https://www.gaugemasterretail.com/magento/gaugemaster-gmc-combi.html

    Elementary, my dear Watson…..Sherlock Holmes is clearly sleuthing me down!
  22. Galteemore
    Exactly like that !
  23. Galteemore
    As a minimum space modeller, that’s a useful little wagon! Dead right re louvres - a definite case for 3d printing right there !
  24. Galteemore
    Ye can’t escape JB right now. He’s even on UTV. Galteemore Snr was very impressed by that Enterprise programme

    This may help, Tony - some good wiring diagrams. Do you want some of the motors to throw simultaneously? https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=i&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwir18ykhcP0AhWZQfEDHWzWBNAQjhx6BAgBEAI&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rmweb.co.uk%2Fcommunity%2Findex.php%3F%2Ftopic%2F115511-wiring-multiple-point-motors%2F&psig=AOvVaw3EC3RxG3OQJ2-AfHfgnmkt&ust=1638463175358378
