There going at speed too! the detail demonstrated in this video makes me giddy for the Irish ones….even if there over a year out at least

And with 4 wheels…..

There is an article in the July 61’ IRRS journal, and there is one one one of the “mechanno” magazines them trams were supposed to be far to underpowered for the work they were intended to do

Couldn’t help but notice that somhow a Turkish steak chef had got his hands on a deltic…..

All depends on how successful this first run is….besides there is plenty of running numbers in the pre-55 green already.

I got one of these for Christmas and was wondering what it was…thanks to all in this thread who helped identify it for me

Did you get these off brendan? Very nice, he is very good at making them them

Ever since we got the announcement of new modes, the value of these have been slowly levelling off….

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

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

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

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

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

who let Bullied near the narrow gauge engines

Can I ask how long these magazines ran for?

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

No URL….it’s in the comment section of a post. It won’t let me share the URL for some reason

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

Most of them are on my list….weather that be in 00 or 0 gauge

Pile of brand new 0 gauge british locos and coaches from “basset lowke” if anyone here is interested

On a seperate note does anyone know who made this exclusivly scratchbuilt stuff….and more importantly what they had…

It’s on Facebook, railway modelers Ireland group

Aperently this lot of 0 and 00 gauge stuff is for sale

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)

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)
