Can we leave that to Facebook and not go into it here please? Thank you.

C Rail intermodal. They're very nice.

Lovely locos Eamonn, thanks for sharing!

A few from today from me, including 087 on the liner. More on my flickr, enjoy! 087 Ballina Dublin Liner 2 by franburke, on Flickr

Cheers Noel, cant wait to see her out again. Be interesting to see the final touches.

It was a joke

Well it's certainly emerald green! Nice one Noel, is it just plain green on the sides or is there a design to it?

They can be slow to approve. Try 'Irish Trains Past and Present' too. They have some knowledgeable souls on there too.

Sweet, I'll stick up a pic up of it when I get home later if I get the chance, from the cab windows up needs a complete re work.

First I've seen of this, very interesting. As a bit of a lego lover myself I've been working on my own designs a while back. Had the guts of a BR Clayton done, still needs a lot of work though. Will you be sharing the finished file? Might be interested in doing one off your instructions myself.

I would urge you not to make this mistake. You would be much better served to allay any customer concerns (on a forum with a large potential target audience for you might I add) than take a defensive stance like that. Instead of having a go at understandable and genuine questions by potential customers why not answer them? And why not answer them where they're being asked than telling them to go to Facebook?

Notwork fail have had a few brain farts recently...

No but I believe it's being run out of his home rather than a 'bricks and mortar' style arrangement. I am 90% sure (although maybe someone like Mark's, Seamus Graham or Herr Bracken can confirm) that you need to have a shop before Bachmann will provide you with stock to sell?

A chat with Mr. Bracken awaits you.

That's class Eoin, could've done with a fan like that today in work!

Are you going to rename yourself 'burnthebody' as a tribute?

Very good, what will you be recommending to power it and what would the rough price be? I had my hands on the very rare 071 kits a few weeks ago. They're done in resin with white metal bogie frames. The castings are excellent. Pity only 10 were made (I think)

Have been lucky enough to see the 201 in the flesh, super job Tony, well done and welcome!

Great photos guys! A bit late to the party with mine, but pics of 85 and other odds and sods on the final leg on the tour from Wednesday on my flickr page... 221 7:00pm Dubin-Cork Express by franburke, on Flickr

is mrsmaken mrbracken's female alter ego?

I believe gostude has several different accounts on EBay so quite possible!

Well all I can say is a massive thank you to JB for organising a great day out and the DCDR gang for their warm welcome and guidance yesterday. It was a brilliant day out. It was great to meet old and new faces from the site too. Also really encouraging to see a large amount of young volunteers, male and female working hard alongside the older hands in keeping railway preservation in this country running. Some people have questioned if the hobby is dying out, but from what I saw yesterday I can confirm that the preservation side of it is in safe hands for many, many years to come. Well done DCDR and the ITG crew up in Down! Anyway, enough of my waffle, some pics of the day out begin here on my flickr page A few to whet the appetite Downpatrick Shed by franburke, on Flickr 1 Downpatrick by franburke, on Flickr Young Volunteers by franburke, on Flickr
