Indeed. I already have my two full rakes of gypsums but to anyone who bought just the one rake, now's your chance to buy another (at a great discount) to model the empty train going back to Kingscourt Remember this train ran from Kingscourt to Limerick 3 times a week.

Good to see "mainstream" British reviewers looking at Irish stuff though.

Did any of you guys order it from Amazon and have it delivered from Amazon UK to the EU duty paid? Amazon UK tells me it has been shipped and assure me that taxes are all paid etc. but, well, you know...

Bang goes the kid's xmas presents.

For those interested in GB outline especially, there are quite a few (advertised) discounts on their website this week. Got an email with this link this morning: https://www.modellbahnunion.com/sonderangebote.htm I honestly have no idea if these are good prices or not but they are an EU retailer so no Brexit headaches.

I was amazed how much better the finish was when I put the can in a warm water bath (not having a hot press). Totally changed the consistency. By the way my (German) missus once remarked that 'hot press' sounds more like an implement of torture than somewhere to make your towels nice and fluffy lol.

You had me sold with the front cover! 800 is a nice bonus!

The biggest problem for 019 is that it never left Inchicore like that so it's difficult to justify it on any layout really. It would be stretching rule one to the limit for most people I suspect

I'm afraid it'll have to be amazon for me JB. It's just easier with postage to buy off amazon Germany. Free postage as I have a Prime account too. Order placed. They are saying 21st November on there.

Smashing video. For some reason I always thought this layout was much smaller than it is. The "stage" effect thanks to the valances and lighting is something I'd like to achieve on my layout someday.
-
Is that on sale already JB? I want to pick one of those up for sure.

I had the German customs incorrectly levy VAT on a small item marked as a gift (from a kind forum member here). It was a 10GBP gift. It was well under the €45 gift threshold. I appealed and went through the (long) formal process and got my €2.22 refunded to me. It did it out of principle. The system is ridiculous. They should be able to treat stuff from say China suspiciously as they often use false declarations commercially. Let them inspect all Chinese parcels then. The crack a nut with a sledgehammer method is nonsense. -
I've no pointers on the photos but welcome to the forum

I don't mind the wait, was really just concerned that maybe my order had slipped through the cracks as September was mentioned previously. It's all good I'm sure it'll be worth the wait too
-
Any news on this? My order is still showing as "awaiting publication". Same for you guys?

Birmingham / WMT Leyland Fleetline Buses from Rapido Trains UK

Ah sure I think we know a few lads that have -
But why the need then to give her an IE look? I mean, she will presumably retain certification in the original yellow and grey livery, so why couldn't she be certified like that? I am kind of wondering is there some intention to run her in IE revenue service somehow? Maybe the whole thing was just to give some apprentices in Inchicore a go of a spray gun and I'm overthinking things!
-
What will she haul during these trials?
-
Can someone please explain what is going on here? Why would the RPSI want a loco looking like this? Looks the business tho.
-
Great stories. Very enjoyable reading.

UR'L mad.

I am developing a real soft spot for A42. There's something about that green.
