  1. Did you get these off brendan? Very nice, he is very good at making them them
  2. Ever since we got the announcement of new modes, the value of these have been slowly levelling off….
  3. My 8th birthday I asked for a virgin pendino and got the “eastern Valley Express” pack from hornby. The coaches from that set have since been repainted and the loco all but scrapped. But there was no going back from then
  4. From Facebook Bandon tank nearly sorted. A big thank you to Cathal Deasy for loaner body. External body done on 3d print. Internal nearly sorted and should be printing bandon tanks in January 2023. I used terrier chassis with bogey from a hornby loco. It runs like a clock so I'm very happy with it. -Mark Dunlea
  5. Down the bottom of the IRM website there is a MANUFACTURER’S section. I think really what we’re asking for is this to be expanded to every type of manufacturer
  6. I would hold off on ordering from silverfox as they usually only produced Irish models in august to October….I have a feeling in the next 12 months we may have something even better then the silver fox bogeys
  7. Currently also on the radar for those willing is mark Dunlea’s Bandon which is still in development as we speak. The chassis set up he has is not optimum though, the terrier looks tiny under the massive bandon tank
  8. who let Bullied near the narrow gauge engines
  9. Can I ask how long these magazines ran for?
  10. Besides the phone number is there so you can drop him a text he says he will go through the stuff individually there, that’ll be a good job for people looking for specifics like me
  11. No URL….it’s in the comment section of a post. It won’t let me share the URL for some reason
  12. Upon closer reading, Colm Creedon found that 3 Coaches and a Tin Van were painted there on the 14th of January 1963. As for why they were being painted there I don’t know, it might necessitate diving into the archive of his work to find an awnser. At least until the end of January 1963 the works was still in use
  13. Most of them are on my list….weather that be in 00 or 0 gauge
  14. Pile of brand new 0 gauge british locos and coaches from “basset lowke” if anyone here is interested
  15. On a seperate note does anyone know who made this exclusivly scratchbuilt stuff….and more importantly what they had…
  16. It’s on Facebook, railway modelers Ireland group
  17. Aperently this lot of 0 and 00 gauge stuff is for sale
  18. Bulleid wagons, GSR opens, any old vans from GSWR to modern CIE ones…and of course flat wagons if your making a car trains (some of which were GNR in origin ) and yes after hearing that I had a massive facepalm having past your GNR flats at raheeny and not purchased em what you need in terms of loco stock for west cork running (well bantry anyway) is bandon tank at lest 2 C class locos An AEC railcar GSWR F6, J10 and the other 4-4-2 loco with the box ivatt cab the CBSC tank from 00 works (aka J24) Of course I’d you apply some imagination as I would, you could add An A class (went there at least once ) a 121 maybe one or two Black and Tan things (some coaches were painted Black and Tan in Rocksavage works) WLWR 4-4-2s if you can make one A midland J26 an E401 class (trialed on the courtmac line) Molaga, argideen no.90 and 100 (no idea why they would be there) A Baldwin (lol)
  19. 207 was slightly different though, she had the Inchicore style double doors. (the fact I know this probobly means I have gained rivet counter citizenship)
  20. It most certainly does! I need to do one of these myself but as. Said. Possible 3D print project. Make sure to number it 201. The only one of these locomotives that wore black Very nice. And I must say that kent layout is savage as it stands right now
  21. The only green models you will be getting is fertiliser pallets!
  22. I’ll put them in order IMO in Likelyness to be made 1. V/ VS class (I believe if one is made there would be a long wait for the other) 2. 800 class 3.S class/Q class (again if one is made it would be a long wait for another) 4. jeeps 5.J-15 (00 works have this covered for a while) 6. Bandon tanks (my personal favourite) 7. MGWR J26 (my personal 2nd favourite) 8.NCC mogul (unless it’s rebuilt faster then I suspect)
  23. Afraid not, though even as someone who does not pay much attention to busses most of the time….this collection made me open my eyes (and that’s just one of 3 cabinets…)
  24. Sher look at what use early 60s modellers we’re able to do up to now. (this is stuff from a collection in west cork territory…it ain’t mine unfortunately) I’m told then green on C212 is very accurate!
  25. most young fellas start out with Hornby English steam trains….so when they go irish…..that’s what they probobly hope to find!
