  2. Anyone into Irish Narrow Gauge? Been asked to look at a Tralee & Dingle 2-6-0 this Sunday at the Stillorgan show I have some Narrow Gauge myself so I am not that interested in it The seller does not have a camera phone so I have no pics He wants to trade it in against an MM 071 He says its in excellent condition, on an N gauge Graham Farish chassis If anyone is interested drop me a PM

  10. Bit dear when you add postage
  11. I'm not going to ask what the Vaseline is for just because you live on your own.....
  12. They turned over 24 bar Fran, I reckon on their margins they made about 2 bar
  13. Didnt recognise you there for a minute Bren
  14. Yep I think he was from the Lissadell side of the family, a cousin. Born & reared in the UK though Constance (Gore Booth) Markievicz , WB et all
  15. Could not find any thread for Eastern Railways so I stuck it here. This model is roughly N Gauge and is a non working one You know me and boxes girls, had to show you the wrapping. Thought this baby would enjoy some new surroundings
  16. Watched one of these beauts running last night As Rich said the second speaker makes a huge difference, not just in terms of Volume but there just seemed to be a much better tone, really impressive Also the fine detail was pure class, a lot of work has gone into it and it shows Would not class myself as a lover of BR Diesels but this really raises the bar
  17. I plan to sell these wagons at Bray and Stillorgan If anyone has missed out on an order give me a shout at either of these events or via PM I also plan to sell single wagons if you need one to make a rake of 10 or whatever, I dont think the lads will be selling individual ones ?
  18. Those 2 Ae 6/6's would look great double heading a rake of the new IRM ballast wagons Steve Didnt know Marklin did a Big Boy. looks fantastic
  19. Hate to say this troops but mine arrived from the publishers with a little note attached Bastard of a job, but someone has to do it
  20. They dont come from the supplier with chips installed but you can have them installed by the retailers if you wish However they are simple to install, even I can do it!
  21. Takes me at least 12 pints.......
  22. Found this page from a March 1997 copy of Model Rail Enthusiast Pat Hammond wrote a series of articles on the various wagons produced by Hornby This was in a series on the 60's & 70's 5 plank wagons These were made in 1979 for the CIE Local Goods Sets A little over 4000 were made In the article the SLNC wagon is described as : R120, Moulded in maroon plastic and carries the initials "SLNC" and the number 145 both tampo printed in white on the sides The initials stood for "Sligo, Larne & Northern Counties" So even Hornby or Pat Hammond can make mistakes! As far as we know the wagon was not sold alone and all the sets were sold in Ireland He then goes on about the Grey CIE wagon which was allocated the number R119 and states that both wagons were scarce I have not found an article on the CIE Insulated wagon so far.
