The difference is I’ll buy a few of those as a posed to just 1 of the new 201
-
Do please….I’m waiting for that green 201 with the new logo eagarly…and it’s about 60 years after my era!
-
I’m on the way to Listowel and the traffic outside Macroom is a nightmare. So much so that whole stopped on river lee bridge. I spotted the now drowned river sullinane viaduct. A similar viaduct crossing the river lee is also drowned. Is there any other remains of rail line that can be found underwater?
-
What I would say the status quote still remains that we are still looking at the Very least a Q4 2023 release. Paddy said at Inchicore he was still in early stages with the 201s…and that was for models aperenly due last spring I really hope they still do come out. Those 2021 announcements have something for everyone

New Announcement - New Improved Fert Wagons at Lower Prices!
Westcorkrailway replied to Warbonnet's topic in News
Ohhhh I’ve seen a few photos of them now.. I’ll probobly buy a few white pallets too put in my new ones tbh. More prototypical to when they were first introduced presumably -

May I ask why the bags are green on this run? Did the fertiliser bags used to be green? -
Very interesting! although I’m right in saying the Black and Tans were more like the Green and kalkies anyway? So perhaps a little less traumatic of a medal… Perhaps Todd andrews looked towards his medal collection for some inspiration
-
I think I’d quite enjoy one novelty model like this. 121 fits it well probobly with that extra space within to work with and the fact the prototype often be quite Smokey in the later days of its lengthy career
-
I love the weathering in this loco, as I do the smoke. They compliment each other very well. accodning to the manufacture the speaker and decoder was moved to the rear area behind the grill and the smoke machine was put where the decoder once was (smart idea might I add)
-
And then the TGV then copied CIE…
-
A12 is actually green too, they just gave it a Hi-visibility jacket
-
I think the red lining will actually be less prototypical (?) the transfers should hopefully be alright to find
-
I have not yet seen a weathered silver A class….I cannot wait to see A30, A1 and even A42 in black weathering
-
The colour of the flying snail is the same on the coaches as it is the tender.
-
No. They had one with litterall “titfield thunderbolt” written all over it…
-
“I can’t believe its not lion” set was officially revolked a few days ago…it’s one of the most bonkers moves I’ve seen a company pull in a while. unfortunately. If I want to get a Ruston 88DS I’ll have to go via Hornby. Luckily for us exclusively Irish models. Our catalogue is quality models all around (albeit the 2nd hand market is less healthy aside from a few notable exceptions)
-
Presumably there must be something under that sign. As that seems to be the crossroads that was a crossing in the above picture
-
If I’m not mistaken, much of the land was not worth re-claiming hence why it’s survived the years so well.
-
When funds allow. I’ll get a BnT 141 of some sort. But the problem is I know for a fact that loco will go for much more then €143 in the end
-
A39R is the last one to sell out….again
-
A39R, A3R, A46….the whole gang of “going for stupid prices on eBay” are here people better not complain after this!
-
A perfect transition model for those willing to take there first step into big gauge
-
Possibly by penrose quay, or perhaps that was done in the north esk?
-
Gouldings was loaded in Cork from the former Albert quay Terminus. Which didn’t close long after these wagons were introduced.
-
Is it an easy process removing the pallets and puttin on the IFI decals? Living in a farm myself here. They do look class!
