Think of all of those people with A rated houses that have no power. The green agenda strikes again. Will not have power until next Saturday and water 2 days later.

Make sure that you disconnect the motor from the rest of the circuit, otherwise you will get a false result. Regards Brendan

Good Day all, Not an Irish setting so I do apologise before I start. I have a request to increase the no of cars on a Bachmann DMU class 108 BR Green which is a 2 car set to 4. However my knowledge on this subject is verry limited. I contacted Bachmann and they do not do centre cars that are separately available. My question is "Is there any RTR cars out there that can be purchased or cars that would pass if looked at a glance"? Regards Thomas

Good Day, The question I would like to ask "Is there a sit down dedicated dining car on any of the railway routes today". I remembered way back (when Adam was a boy) one could get breakfast on the Dublin to Cork line early in the morning, served with silver cutlery and the food was excellent. Regards Thomas

I used to travel once a month from Limerick Junction to Dublin during 1978/79. During that time breakdowns and delays were not uncommon. I noticed that there was always an engine standing on the siding at Limerick Junction ticking over and wondered why so!!. Well on one dark wet evening I plucked up the courage to ask one of the staff why. The response was very reassuring. He said that "It was the backup engine in case any of the Dublin Cork trains broke down". I replied "O that is a good idea, but why is the engine running all the time?" He said " If it stopped we would never get it started again".

This question was probably asked before and answers given but what is the best sound chip for a 141 that is available today?

It looks like it is a NEM socket. Remove the coupling by pinching the 2 lugs that protrude out the back of the socket and pulling out the coupling at the same time.

Thanks for the info on the lights gents but when did it switch over to the 2 lights?
-
Sorry if this subject has already been covered but what indicator lights were fitted to the rear of early/modern CIE trains?

That is great to hear we will be in contact. Re the Keg Liners, so you are not producing a second run? as was stated to him.

That's sad. However looking for a full buffer beam for a Class 201. I wonder if there is anyone out there who might have broken/damaged Murphy models who might sell them?
