    I can only attest to the Bartoline branded TX10 as shown at B&M and also available at the Range. Apparently There is another brand of TX10 (Volden TX10) available from B&Q NOTE I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS WILL DO TO PLASTIC

    As I said, Works fine on removing Paint. Just wash off with water and soft brush. You would have to forget that you had put a plastic model in it, (for over a week minimum) to do any damage.

    Latest (PAINT) stripper of choice . TX10 from B&M Also available elsewhere. Used to strip some heavy gloss from an old whitemetal kit, which it did with ease. What surprised me was it did not affect the acetate sheet glazing. So tried on other plastics. Only after leaving in for 2 full weeks did I detect any softening of (the sacrificial) Plastic Sprue!

    Do you have a link to a photo at all?

    I'm sure I've read they had it. Still don't always believe what you read!

    And it came (Second Hand) from the County Donegal Railway (At the same time as the Walker Railcars 19 & 20), Made from the frames of a Class 5. As for a car turntable, I saw one years ago in Scarbrough (Near the North Bay / Peasholme Park.)

    You do need square end axles for Scale Link and 3SMR but as @murrayec has said you can sleeve them if split. I am aware of 12mm, 14.2mm, 16.5mm, but have not looked for longer. (They may exist though but 21mm is even more obscure than OOn3!)

    Hi means having to join to buy but 3mm Scale Model Railways TT Wheels As for axles to suit 21mm, I don't know but I've never looked. Component wise, 3SMR 3mm Scale Model Railways TT LOCOMOTIVE SECTION Just ignore the fact that they are made for 3mm and find a size that suits, All measurements are actual.

    More so if the relative has no idea or interest and brings in a dealer to clear the collection. Yet suddenly change again when they offer them for sale.

    Hi @Mol_PMB You pointed him to a PDF of my plans (I sent all the Backwoods 00n3 Range through to EDM for the archive) Mark. As for plans I'm drawing a blank but there is the Alphagraphix card kit E11 IRISH NARROW GAUGE | alphagraphixkits.co.uk 7mm scale but both sides front back roof etc printed on heavy card. Just measure and work from that. @Ted54 What scale are you thinking of? Scratch aid kit in brass is available from Worsley Works in 4mm and 15mm

    Hi Eduard, It's really a Loco (Not Railcar) as no passenger seating is provided. Started out life on the Clogher Valley as a Steam Loco, but was changed to Diesel when taken over by the County Donegal. As for plans , I need to think.

    I mainly use mine for working from scratch off different scale plans. Picked up in a charity shop in Beer, Near Peco, Still wonder if it came from 1 of their designers originally.
  18. commerlad

    Irm wagons

    commerlad replied to Jims's topic in Irish Models

    A real box of live frogs. So much better to have live frogs than dead ones, The loco's don't stall on the points so often.

    Why did I immediately think of Patrick McGoohan Ah that was it.

    First off. What Scale. Secondly, I presume you mean "America" The Flak wagons were specially converted coaches, And you are going to have to seriously butcher some decent coaching stock and 2cm Flakvierling 38 kits Pics here at about 5 mins Hitler's train was a rolling fortress named after America And at the beginning of this one Bing Videos not the typical gun mounted on old wagon. or even the armoured of which examples of both, and choices of scale are available on EBAY.

    You know that's over twice the size I like OOn3.
  24. commerlad
    Was nice to see the layout behaving itself. Well I suppose I can't be pleased all of the time.
  25. commerlad
    OK Not Irish I admit but The Bachman or Cambrian versions are close enough (for me at least) http://www.island-images.co.uk/Rail/Railstock/SteamStock/Q290739.jpg The livery, Simple DIY transfers. https://us.docworkspace.com/d/sIMm70cYj54j_vAY Help yourself to the design if you want a couple.
