    75

Everything posted by DJ Dangerous

  1. 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.
  2. 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!
  3. 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?
  4. How many different FREMO standards are there for OO / HO? And what are the differences between them?
  5. Have just logged into YT to subscribe, @James. Much prefer the second layout video, without the mattress shop music.
  6. 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?
  7. 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.
  8. Some funny business going on there. Those lads are up to no good.
  9. That’s a whopping area to run trains in! Glad it’s not @Dave Lindfield, that could get messy.
  10. That sounds excellent! What size is the room? How much do the FREMO boards cost?
  11. It’s a garden hedge. He knows how much you love your nocturnal hedges. Is it a layout room?
  12. @Railer posted a list HERE.
  13. It's a lovely livery alright!
  14. Is that where those yobbos were swapping out reg' plates on the two Qashquai's?
  15. Super space there. I see a Galway set hiding at the back. Echoes of Knockseo Junction in places.
  16. And what’s it passing over?
  17. Dun dun duuuunnnnnnnnn!
  18. What a cute little loco. I can see these ending up on seversl members’ workbenches, getting weathered to within an inch of their lives. You’ve packed a lot of gear into a small space, and you’ve brought the price down compared to your other diesels, outstsnding!
  19. The truck from “Duel” in O Gauge! https://cochesdemetal.es/es/1955-camion-articulado-peterbilt-281-tank-sz-rost-marron-oxidado-143-ixo-models-ttr03822
  20. Hi Guys. Are these likely to be back in stock any time soon? I did buy some, but not enough! Thanks! Sorry, I should have included the product links and reference screenshots: https://www.accurascale.ie/products/y33-sambre-et-meuse-bogie-pack-black?shpxid=4de40949-f6e6-4b93-98d3-de1761ead846 https://www.accurascale.ie/products/y33-y33-sambre-et-meuse-bogie-pack?shpxid=abdca1f1-b414-4f32-bd1c-8271484ec87d https://www.accurascale.ie/products/y33-sambre-et-meuse-bogie-pack-red-oxide?shpxid=b31c6d3f-b960-400b-ae4d-5218a57e73a4
  21. By the way, how are you getting on with the Swedish models?
  22. Yup, four character minimum so years are OK, but scales would seem very relevant for this particular forum. I use a workaround by typing the following line into DuckDuckGo: site:irishrailwaymodeller.com “071” …when searching for an 071, or something with less than four characters. However, that’s a bit hit and miss. For example, replace the “071” with “1:24” and it brings up posts made at twenty four minutes past one.
  23. On how the search function works, I get zero results when searching for a particular scale. For example, both “1/18” and “1:18” show zero results, yet both comply with the four charcter minimum. I feel like being able to search for a scale would be very beneficial. Also, given how common phrases like “071” and “141” are in our hobby, might it be possible to allow a three-character minimum instead of four?
  24. O Gauge 1958 Land Rover only €20: https://cochesdemetal.es/es/1958-land-rover-series-ii-rhd-canvas-verdebeige-143-oxford-43lr2s008 Quite a ubiquitous vehicle for any layout from 1960 to 2000 and beyond.
