Lovely pics josefstadt, thanks for sharing. RW Carroll posts up some gems on flickr of UK and occasionally Irish stuff. I think he buys slides up from collections and EBay.

You start this thread, get the answer (or cannot wait to get the right answer) so you go and start a new thread anyway!?! http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/4110-Ebay-tread Merged into the EBay Watch thread, where it should be!
-
'EBay Watch' is the Ebay thread. If you see something on EBay that you want to share on the site you post it as a reply there. It keeps everything together then. There is no point in starting a new thread every time you see something different on EBay. Simples.

You cant find the thread that you have posted on before? http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/58-eBay-Watch/page60

Cheers for the well wishes lads. A year older but not much wiser sadly!

New Enterprise Livery
Warbonnet replied to Dunluce Castle's topic in What's happening on the network?
Now that does look nice. The 201 will look well when it's finished to the same spec. -
Happy Christmas one and all and all the best for 2015.

Stick to code 100 everything if you want to run Lima. They'll bounce on the sleepers on code 75.

If I can refer you to rule four Noel, no politics please. Thanks. We would ask all new members to please read the rules and familiarise yourselves with them for future reference. http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/79-Website-Guidelines-Rules

I would be but neither of them appeal to me. Two class 71s on the other hand? Kerosene Castle and an 89 please! On the other hand at least you have a choice between two and hopefully the competition will drive both of them to be the best they can possibly be. And yes, a nice A class would be nice but we have gone over that ground so much recently, let's not trod down that path yet again!

Yep, renowned for asking stupid money for *****. Gets a lot of sales though mind you. And people thought that Wrenneire charges too much!

How to Remove the body off NCC Loco
Warbonnet replied to burnthebox's question in Questions & Answers
Should be instructions in the box too. Bachmann instructions are quite good, very easy to read and self explanatory. -

Off you go so! -
Servicing Locomotives: 141 181 and Woolwich
Warbonnet replied to DiveController's question in Questions & Answers
When the loco doesnt run correctly or makes any loud or grinding noises. If it runs properly then no worries. Pretty straightforward I would've thought. If you dont trust yourself to do the right thing then take them to your local model shop and they'll do it for you. -

Tom just outlined what to do above. -
Amazing stuff, the textures you get is a true testament to the possibilities of modelling with card and combining it with other materials. Looking forward to more updates!

stunning!

Is that all? Sure that's a contender for model of the year!

The Railroad 31 would have the same 5 poll motor of the Railroad Deltic. It is a smooth runner but without traction tyres lacking in pulling power. The modern 31 they do is excellent running wise although expensive. However, some have had chassis rot and expansion issues. As a result you can sometimes buy the guts cheap on eBay for a few quid and scratch a chassis for it. I bought one a while ago to slap into a Lima 31. Atlas chassis is usually cheaper and an even better runner with less work to do so it would always be my choice. That's just my opinion though.
-
They're all going to be compromises, but it would be better than a Railroad Deltic.
-
Nice garratt! I remember Seamus Graham was selling them when times were good. Was sorely tempted by one I have to say.
-
Enough of this pricking around with powering your A class. Buy an Atlas/Kato HO Scale RSD 4/5 and slap it underneath. It'll be the best runner in your fleet.

Let's not get into some sort of price debate gents. Paudie has posted what he would like for the stock, let the market decide and leave it there. Cheers.
