  1. Wrong thread, but as I’m here, where is the the Bandon Tank? Or is that somone elses
  2. wait till the 20th and by there own word that would be unusual
  3. This layout has been seen on Facebook a couple of times. A lot of alphagraphix and scratch built stuff. It’s really good!
  4. I was under the impression that rails don’t have the tooling to produce more runs, they are just finishing off the coaches hattons started
  5. This whole ordeal is hilarious
  6. I’d rather it be consistent!
  7. saw that, thank goodness!
  8. I always thought that 3d printing technology would be the job for making custom size platforms.
  9. You’re right Ernie. That clonakilty junction photo is pretty significant.
  10. You’d probobly need to put on a much larger search to find much
  11. Most importantly in 1862 the kinsale Branchline was still under construction somone should do an 1862 map of the rail network
  12. Go back almost 100 years and pullmans were going via nenagh into limerick
  13. Oil is still dispensed from a depot in roughly the same location in Bantry
  14. Hello lads. We are now taking bookings for tables. If you have some stuff to sell. There is no better place
  15. Now that you mention it. The roof at Kent could do with a paint and a clean!
  16. i don’t think I have a problem with any of the Termini in the Republic. Once all those upgrades to limerick Galway Waterford and Cork anyways (well Rosslare is a bit lacking but to be honest, money should be spent elewhere on that line!)
  17. simular ish ones in the WCMRV in clonakilty
  18. Something like this was used as a “portable water tank” there was one down in courtmac during the beet season. Biggest problem is….there was two seperate square tanks as a pose to one large one
  19. The Burma shunter at cork was litterally a 1960s tractor so it could be worse…. St mologa and argideen also spring to mind. Is there any other CIE locos with only a name and no number?
  20. Most stations have a “fire exit plan” on the wall somewhere. Depending on the station you wanted you could just travel to that station and take a picture of said plan
  21. As JHB pointed out. mr Good has given to me a copy from his long list of invaluable documents the first time each C class ran in west cork (all of them having visited west cork by the end of 1959) meaning any C class could work your layout. I however would hold out on a silverfox C class because I have a feeling an IRM one will avarice in the midium term. As for the AEC railcar. I found them to be not good enough. The plastic very fiddly and falling apart. Hence I sold mine @jhb171achill a C class in green in 1966! also CIE Had a Peckett! In original as deleivered Peckett Green but it was very very weathered so you could hardly make out it was green. It was withdrawn in 1950 but you could “work around that” I would probobly get GSWR no.90 if funds allowed too.
