MkIV Refurbishment
DJ Dangerous replied to 226 Abhann na Suire's topic in What's happening on the network?
Have you any cost/benefit figures on catering services? Initial start-up cost, operating costs, cost of infrastructure required on trains and at stations, insurance costs, licencing costs, plus the occasional lawsuit when some Negative Numpty says that they got food poisoning? Vs. Increased income to cover the costs and turn a profit? Boooooooooo! Booooooooooooooooo!!!!! -

I wonder what else went that same route!

MkIV Refurbishment
DJ Dangerous replied to 226 Abhann na Suire's topic in What's happening on the network?
How about a bold, new, serviceable livery, that's also been tried and tested? Like, all-over orange with a black band and twin white stripes! -
Thanks for sharing, @Rob! Your poor performance at East Wall is partially forgiven. Holy crap, they look gorgeous! It's great to read positive things like this, instead of the usual IE-bashing. Keep it up, IE, you're all we have. EDIT: Hmmmmmm, now that I scrutinise the seat-cover design more intensely, is it just me, or does it look like every single seat is occupied by a girl in a dark swimsuit and swimming cap?

What's the difference between a B4 and a B5? Should the generator vans have one B4 and one B5?

So some DMX you mean? Nice! @Broithe's fault that this is stuck in my head: Raven Maize - The Real Life.

There, fixed it for you! -

At the risk of opening a can of worms here, and I love opening cans of worms, the only real limits are moral and financial. 3D printing makes it very easy to copy somebody else's work without putting in the graft that they did in the first place. This is what China has been accused of for decades, stealing technology, reverse-engineering and basically copying others work while skipping the initial set-up cost. I assume that there is some sort of association for those who make 3D prints, with some kind of guidelines and standards, much like the NMRA etc?

BR Blue and NSE Class 50 Deco Samples Revealed!
DJ Dangerous replied to Warbonnet's topic in British Outline Modelling
Do something stupid like jumping off your roof in a shopping trolley while live-streaming to YouTube. Accurascale will not only give you a loco, but will show up in person to sign your various casts. Only have one myself, Heljan's "Courageous", but am looking forward to adding two Accurascale variants to the fleet! -
Oh my goodness, a revelation just hit me... These are going to be O Gauge instead of OO Gauge, aren't they??? Can I stop buying Accurascale HUO's and start buying IRM Bubbles instead??? You're running out of HUO's anyway, no pack I nor pack N available.

Rails of Sheffield are offering a massive 20% at their eBay store! You need to enter the LEAP20 code at the checkout. Only valid for the next three days. No use to me because of the double-taxation, but may be of use to some on here.

I garnered something similar from Wikipedia's various pages, but we all know that Wikipedia may not always be the most reliable, so thank you for that. They were the GSR 280 class / CIE M1 class? Also wondering about a 7mm model as there are several available, almost always top of the "Offers" piles, but I'm not sure which of the UK models is or isn't close enough to the Irish models.
-
I'm a little confused by the Sentinels. There were five variants? Y1/1, Y1/2, Y1/3, Y1/4 and a Y3? Which variant did the GSR have, and how did it / they end up with the GSR?
-
Try something like this. @jhb171achill or @Galteemore will be on this like flies on poop, to confirm, but I think it just needs the "wings" removed, possibly some de-lining / de-badging, and happy days.
-
The Bachmann Moguls appear every couple of weeks - think I posted one in the eBay watch thread a few days ago. The UK variants are usually cheaper, and would be fairly easy to Irish-ize. Try @WRENNEIRE and see if he has something taking up too much space in his treasure trove.
