    Hattons (well I suppose it’s rails of Sheffield now!) are launching there rtr CIE 6 wheel coaches. They should be unreal when they release later this year, although not rivet counter freindly. I would say there the best option if you can get your hands on them you could always try your hand at respraying the horny/hatons ones but I’ve no idea how easy that is for accurate ones studio scale models do some fine Irish 6 wheel kits. Im sure worsely works also do etches

    There might also be a presentation in the IRRS Munster area on the 14th of may on the North Kerry by the ever so knowledgable Gerry McMahon. If you have a question I might be able to ask him on your behalf.

    Cork, Bandon and South Coast Railway Baldwin Tank Engines from America. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CBSCR_Baldwin_saddle_tank There is drawings of the locomotive on the internet (its on the forum infact!) for all to see so it wouldn't be the most difficult thing to do. problem is....it wouldn't be a great seller id imagine! at most people might want it to put next to there GMS to show the evolution of American locomotives in Ireland https://digitalcollections.smu.edu/digital/collection/rwy/id/2214/rec/93

    the only real candidate for a RTR Irish steam locomotive
  9. Westcorkrailway
    If I had enough money I’d buy one and paint it up like a Silver G class along with a maybe 50 meters of straight track….or is that sacreligous
  10. Westcorkrailway
    Yeah it’s been done, infact I think some have replaced the model that’s in game and replaced it with something else….I’m not doing it though! I haven’t a scooby doo how to do it
  11. Westcorkrailway
    Now that the tracks are going down… adare!
  12. Westcorkrailway
    Maybe something on the limerick junction to limerick line comes to mind. Although to be fair that might cause delays for the cork train!
  13. Westcorkrailway
    4 car I’m reliably told at the moment
  14. Westcorkrailway
    Some of my snaps from kildare (hard place to get to from Cork at that hour!)

    Final tests occurred yesterday after a trip to see the old/new Arrow 2600 Railcar. We though it apropriate to have the first loco to west the headboard as the oldest.
  16. Westcorkrailway
    Yes it will be in cork in this livery for years to come
  17. Westcorkrailway
    No idea as that one isint mine! The other ones is mine though…it’s a very stage poster with some very stage features regardless of its authenticity. For instance this signature “exhibit 2 Colm Creedon” I have seen a poster like this in one of Colm creedons photo folders hanging up on a wall….must find it
  18. Westcorkrailway
    Two different examples….fonts look different. One uses pen!
  19. Westcorkrailway
    As revealed on IRISH rails socials….
  20. Westcorkrailway
    My one has pencilled in details in the same blue colour
  21. Westcorkrailway
    A final look at the Headboard before I "test it" probobly on GSWR no.36. then it will be ready for its probably ceramonial role of photo opps and static locos!
  22. Westcorkrailway
    Looks to be a bit more complex then the West Cork Model Railway Village
  23. Westcorkrailway
    I have a poster very similar to that youghal one….though…..I was told it was fake!
  24. Westcorkrailway
    not to mention about 3984029834 different liveries, introduction of the GM'S
  25. Westcorkrailway
    steam locos often cause fires. im told this time its just that this fire in particular damaged the signaling equipment i saw that....the provisional wing of the RPSI looking for 85 to come back! truly spit out your cereal stuff
