That’s not fair, that’s how the “All Activity” here on our little forum looks at times.

Great price for anybody looking for points!

You have a subscriber here either way!

Excellent, @Jack_Dunboyne, that will save @LNERW1 a fortune over so many modules.

Try the spares bags that came with the IRM bogie wagons like Tara’s and 42’ Flat Wagons. You may need to widen the hole a tiny bit, but they should fit. Almost sure it was @ttc0169 who first posted this tip a few years ago.

I have a Class 89 and 60, too.

That’s a fabulous offer! Unfortunately, Dopey here pre-ordered, so no savings for me!

I couldn’t find anything myself after a cursory search… But DuckDuckGo is my preference over Google! Think I’ll stick with the Code 75, it’s a better representative of a wider range of era, and just looks so much better.

Very informative, thanks! Have seen those links in the past, but the added context helps. The British Steel list in particular shows how weight doesn’t correlate with height. So, in summary, Code 100 is suitable for the most modern 60E1 only, and Code 75 is a better representative of rail ftom the 50’s to 2000’s? Is the current Irish rail profile 60E1? Talk about life imitating art!

So for example, a rural module and mainline module would not be compatible? I’m confused by the rail height, too. I thought that Code 100 was 30% taller than the prototype, hence people aim for Code 75? Or have Irish rail been installing taller rail, so Code 75 is now too short for a modern image layout?

How many different FREMO standards are there for OO / HO? And what are the differences between them?

Have just logged into YT to subscribe, @James. Much prefer the second layout video, without the mattress shop music.

That’s an amazing amount of space for running trains!!! And for filming whatever amateur projects you like! The FREMO modules are about €40-ish each, I think. @Jack_Dunboyne had negotiated a 10% discount for forum members at one stage, but I’m not sure if that still stands. How many modules will you need? About 25?

Running a single loop of track on temporary boards made from free offcuts while building up the FREMO boards over time would stave off the frustration to some extent. He’s going to be putting a grand or two into the “proper” boards, I’d say, plus the same again on the track. That kind of money may be difficult to get together at that age. Hopefully today we’ll see some daylight pictures of the space.
