    Found another MIR two axle wagon kit and finished  it off as an ex works barrier wagon for the rear of the oil train,complete with red tail lamps,coupling and vacuum brake pipe. 
    A short oil wagon transfer trial is seen in Lakeview freight yard behind 018.

    Is that a Tayto van stripped naked?

    Hi everyone,

    We are sorting this out with the factory. Ongoing...

    We have also done a formation guide similar to our IR/IE Mark 2 coaches for the Enterprise Mark 2s over different eras for some added inspiration!

    Some interesting formations in there!

    €75 including postage for just one wagon?

    Triple the price, @leslie10646, don't just double it!

  4. How about moving Dugort to Malahide, merging it with the Casino railway, and renting out the Dugort room to OTHER suckers looking for storage?

    If only you knew somebody involved enough...

    Oh, wait...

    Nice mix there.

    Those 141' will be for sale in a short time on the Ebay / FB etc. Would not worry, I did not order any either.

     

     

    The eyesight is going with old age, and too much sun, so the O Gauge stuff is a way of compensating.

    No chance I'll be touching the new locos for crazy eBay prices, they're even worse!

    May pick up one or two from Rails, depending on shipping cost.

  6. So, I had saved up a bunch of money for several of the new Murphy Models 141's / 181's.

    At the last minute, when it came time to convert EOI to pre-order, I decided not to go ahead.

    I don't like the direction that the pricing is going for Irish locos, and if anybody else has worked for Canarian wages, they'll understand why!

    Thus, while slowly greening with envy as the locos approach, and seeing @tonto.irl posting pictures of his advance issue on Facebook, I decided to de-green myself a little and spend some of that hard-earned cash:

    Seriously,Tik-Tok? you know me better than that. Anyway, thanks for the glowing reference, Dave.  

     

    That was sarcasm, Ray, as apparently now we're saying it every time we do it.

    Yes it's not like those wonderful internet posts back in the 1970s when we all had dial up modems! :) :) 

     

    So, @Noel, now that you have free time to use the forum, how about those numbers, please?

    You are adamant that catering is required, and I'd love to see the basic calculations to support that position?

    Broad strokes, though, please, as I'm just a lowly cleaner, not a Retired Company Director nor anything so grand.

    Am I being unreasonable in asking for more info? I don't think so?

    Aye but Joe Lawton’s handy work m was quite iconic on the wagon and added to it…..whereas 90s graffiti…..well if it was done by a well meaning enthusiast trying to cover up the rust with rattle cans….they didn’t do a good job

     

    My point was that the IRM lads obviously have plenty of experience with graffiti...
