    Perhaps number 90 could have been something to pick up?

    If the Dublin underground is anything to go by, me…a 19 year old may never see the project progress much further. Then multi million feasibility studies! although I believe the plans currently for the Cluas re-use Blackrock station ….but not much else of the old CBPR. It’s a shame Carigoline is outside the city boundary otherwise the Cluas would go there along that (reasonably) well preserved trackbed

    Despite being so near to what is now ringaskiddy port. I can imagine That speed was far more important then power on that line

    Christ 00 works J24 really inflated its price since I got one

    When they were lifting the track at the viaduct , they found loads of them road bowling balls stuck in the frames……more metal for the scrap man I guess!
  6. Westcorkrailway
    still not ideal yet, but getting there you could make an excellent chetwynd viaduct from scratch building but the time involved would be astronomical. 3D printing it offers value for time for these very specific cases i think I’ll be picking up that viaduct and make a small (yes small) single line diorama depending on how well the print turns out

    Yer man Owen is very good. He is currently working on a full macmine junction station kit, Chetwynd viaduct kit, and even some GSR 6 wheel/Short bogey design….

    Achill is very remote. Any other examples you know of with situations like this? Presumably they must be all around the county where would one go about finding them

    If you want to buy tickets Online you can. I think it’s also allows to skip the que if that’s necessary

    IRM is trying to distance itself from the illegal seahorse trading
  12. Westcorkrailway
    So this is the new IRM branding. I presume all the boxes will be in this new Slate Grey / Bright green combination Simular to the Accurascale boxes ps-wouldn’t mind if this forum had a “dark mode” setting
  13. Westcorkrailway
    Has IRM got a new colour scheme? Or is this a glitch exclusive to my phone
  14. Westcorkrailway
    That green paint was humbrol 14ml enamel emerald green Marks used to have it however it’s no longer stocked due to the fact it has a fractional trace of a cancer causing agent (or something like that) so the EU deemed it illegal. I’ll have to find a substitute…

    It’s a £15 dapol LMS stanier coach under the green paint and Railtec transfers I still haven’t gotten around to painting the roof
  16. Westcorkrailway
    Genuinely, wouldn’t it be handy if one of the lads was a carpenter, metalworker or even a railway worker before they had to come here…..and was willing to volunteer too
  17. Westcorkrailway
    I wonder could one gain a few Ukrainian volounteers
  18. Westcorkrailway
    200 quid for theatre Silverfox sulzer you could… ~wait for and get it brand new custom made for more or less the same price if not less ~or wait for the inevitable long term IRM iteration
  19. Westcorkrailway
    It’s been there for years, often the same eejit posting about moyesta on tiktok would break in and explore these “forgotten coaches”
  20. Westcorkrailway
    If anyone has a good colour photo of that coach in good condition and in that livery, I’d love to see it….I am addicted to that livery

    My best speculation is that maam cross might be a good home to a certain ITG locomotive that is looking for a home

    Garrison model show 2022. Saturday 28th of august from 12pm-4.30pm. probably worth a visit if you live down south. I reckon it will be busy this year as it’s also the first time the fort has re opened since covid hit (rather harsh clash of dates)
  23. Westcorkrailway
    Oh Christ lt was “only 1 powered item this year” a couple of months ago my financial plans are ruined and I shall now re-morgage d’house
  24. Westcorkrailway
    Ahhhhh so that’s where the blue thunder tour ended up…. I’m in the same boat as DJ…seriously? I know NIR have basically no use for em but a 111 would be the first of its kind to be preserved…and a big undertaking in itself Or is 112 the number ye guys will have to dial when photographers from all over Ireland descend on maam cross on opening day
  25. Westcorkrailway
    Well we know of the Ruston 88ds…..will it be able to pull all the stock coming it’s way….
