  1. Hi all, Does anyone have a phone number or contact details for Murphy Models? I think the email address on their website is out of date? Cheers!
  2. Would this be an potential kit Killian? Hopefully someone knows something!
  3. That's coming together beautifully. Could the chimney be 3d printed?
  4. Thank you! The shot was taken at a really nice spot where we also caught Maitland light engine one rainy evening and a dinner service of Loch with Maitland banking. Alas the photos of Maitland approaching were too blurry (she was really getting on!) and those of Loch a bit closer too dark.
  5. Another trip away... This time to the Isle of Man and then on to Ireland including a week in County Donegal, mostly unfortunately inside as I came down with Covid picked up on the IoM, luckily nowadays a much weaker virus. Could this be the first locomotive back at Dungloe Road station since the 1940s? A fun (to me, anyway) photo and a genuine possibility. Luckily I did recover in time to visit the railway museum before I left the area, it was great to see Drumboe back where she belongs. The trip has really boosted my 00n3 modelling mojo and I'm really looking forward to making a start on a proper layout soon!
  6. Just found this thread and it reminded of my idea to repaint a VoR tank in NCC lake. If model rail ever release their 009 model... I think they have a slight passing resemblance to the NCC compounds, but it might just be me!
  7. That is simply incredible work Alan. At first glance having not read the text I thought it was a colourised photograph of the real thing. Your livery application is exquisite. I really love No.29, very inspirational to the rest of us BCDR fans.
  8. Thanks Alan! Yes, it was a real swine to do. I'd read somewhere that thinning the mortar paint with IPA would change the surface tension such that it will just flow into all of the cracks, unfortunately I couldn't find mine so used a drop of washing up liquid which did in fairness work though not as well as I'd hoped. So I still got it on the bricks in places and had to wipe it off again. The shed will get some weathering too and hopefully that'll make it a bit less obvious where it's not as well done.
  9. I don't suppose it's possible to have broad gauge on the top side and narrow gauge on the underside?
  10. I wonder where the S&S got a German metal bodied coach from... Little to report on the Irish front of late as I've been interrailing, including a wonderful excursion to the Harz and one to the Mollibahn (yes, I bought a 2-8-2 donor chassis for a 12mm gauge Molli...) which were amazing. It was great to get a feel of what the Irish narrow gauge may have been similar to as apart from Fintown I'd only previously been on standard and 2ft narrow gauge. I have however done a bit of weathering on some British stock: Pictured here on my WIP 00 gauge photo plank. Again not Irish, but I'll pose my Irish projects on it as I think they'd look better in scenery than not.
  11. Many happy returns David!
  12. Very well fixed, and well done for not destroying the thing in rage! Any sign of a dent in the buffer beam still visible could be explained as the result of a rough shunt? Very fine work as ever and well done for the skillful repairs
