I've been contemplating fiddling around with similar track too. I'll be staying OO as I couldnt logically afford to rewheel everything I've got an then I do love a bit of HO to run too. I've been following this thread on RMWeb and trying to get my head around things http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/89279-finescale-oo-track-where-to-start/page-2#entry1574213

RIP Norman.

Quick out of the blocks there Noel! Well done. Actually like the new logo on them.

Be interesting if she ends up on the Enterprise considering IE is removing the flag logo from the ICRs slated to stand in whilst the DeDetrichs get a refurb!

I believe it is true, not a Photoshop Shem. A few pics of her doing the rounds.

I think you've misunderstood my point but I'm glad you're in contact and getting it sorted

Lads if you used Paypal you should have an email for him. Anyone tried that course of communication?

Must dig my copy out and have a gander. cheers man!

Excellent photo, cheers!

Cheers Dave. Now, has anyone come across a built up 800 and got a pic of one? That'd make a real nice loco in O gauge!

So those C Rail Bells would look right at home on them? Nice!

Flat looks amazing. What time period would they have been used on liners?

I would've thought that some of their produce would be part of your collection! Nice one Dave, I'd say their story was an interesting one between running a model shop and producing kits. Different era and all that. We've come a long way but there's a nostalgia about the past. I suppose I'm curious as I have very vague memories of being in Monck Place as a nipper and still have the Hornby Duchess as proof of the visit!

Threw a cheap Bachmann chip into her and both ends running as normal. She'll be put through her paces in Portarlington before long before she's given the clean bill of health!

Love the Leinster Models stuff Dave. I heard their kits were a bit crude and a nightmare to build. Am I right in saying he did some Irish O gauge kits too? You'd miss Monck Place really, it sounds like a real old school model shop. When did the McGowans finish up all together?

Super stuff Richie, the finish really is good but I really love the flush glazing. Lack of flush glazing on models where required is something that grates me personally. These really lift the donors to a level where you cant tell their vintage anymore.

I'll be up for the sides and the buffet interior John. The TPO may also be on interest. Does anyone have details of a typical formation of a TPO train that these vans would've been used in?

Always loved the TEE stock, lovely stuff Steven.

Great! It was a good video as it was, can't wait to see the finished product

Weird. It worked when I posted it. How odd...

Super stuff Noel, rolling stock is my cup of tea too. Love the BR steam/diesel transition era, especially when it involves former LMS and LNER motive power.

you may get stuck paying the VAT here if you bring them in from the States. Maybe try giving Wrenneire a shout? Seamus Graham might have some left too.

BR in the 1980s. NIR had a 70 class railcar decked out in similar livery.
