  1. Is it an easy kit to build?
  2. LMS 48ft Coach ratio kits they do look the buisness
  3. I consulted Popeye’s workbench and indeed he does have them listed I also found these yolks which could serve as inspiration?
  4. A new roof is an interesting suggestion. I wonder how easily that can be done though it might be another job for the 3D Printer although again, would have to be a good printer because cheap ones don’t do curves all to well
  5. Indeed those railtec transfers are a great job 5 (or more) coaches for 25 ish euro if you Include transport fees ect. same said for my Adams radial tank, would not have been possible if it weren’t for the extra bits of the Bandon tank transfer sheet from SSM and yes. I believe SSM does seem GSR chest trasfers
  6. They should really describe on the letter they send you itself what your paying for. I got a customs letter in the post about a week ago for what I thaught was for Oxford wagons I already had received (hence I ignored it)…..i looked over it just now, and realised that it was for a JM designs Brake can I had pre-ordered in almost 2021! And had forgotten about it….the only reason I copped it was the tracking ID ended in “NZ” (New Zealand) All the letter offers you in terms of info of the item is the value of the item…..which wasn’t enough for me to realise what it was. It’s more then possible since once you input the information into the website, it says “MODEL TRAIN PARTS” or something along those lines and the origin “JM DESIGN TRAINS” or something. is it that hard to print this onto the customs letter
  7. Great job in these coaches, the 1st coach has a near identical livery to the ones in my Rosslare coach transformation (probobly same paint and transfers) Very soon, from a small pack of transfers and paint, you could have a huge variety of coaches in a variety of liveries
  8. can’t wait for this livery variant of the 201 gets released in model form
  9. They did that around the time they started changing the logos to the new “origami” IR logo as some may call it , the undercarriage would turn this colour anyway due to grime and dirt, probably just a practical move and makes the loco look much better
  10. MGWR J26. One of the most versitile locos in Ireland. And one I intend to eventually make in 00 gauge
  11. The baldwins were right awkward yolks, outside cylinders and bells. The CBSC we’re going yank long before before CIE!! Here is one at the ballinhassig aerial ropeway siding shunting bricks, even the baldwins outlived the ropeway
  12. Which CBSC loco is in the backlog?
  13. You wouldn’t……would you
  14. Once again, no one called it!!!
  15. Funnily enough we are actually doing probability chances of that happening are 1/1 just 1 minute now
  16. Funnily enough we are actually doing probability chances of that happening are 1/1
  17. The last time it was a live video from Hornby magazine, but this time it’s difference since it’s not a joint accurascale announcement
  18. The math teacher will be wondering why I’m staring at my “calculator” at 1 o clock
  19. I don’t think a single person could have predicted NIR mk2’s last time where credit is due watch as IRM release Something like the 8200 class dart so once again we will be all wrong. Yes please
  20. Good idea….if much of the stuff theorised is announced…..many remaining A classes will become more attractive to buy
  21. Park Royal, laminates, bulleid wagon And add “pedestrian footbridge” to that list
  22. After putting the provided chassis up to the terrier chassis, part of me wants to just try replace the wheels
  23. So there is a chance we will see very rare GSR era snaps of Dugort harbour someday?! I’m waiting for hattons genesis coaches come out, and if there as good as they look, I’ll paint them in post 1955 CIE green
  24. 464 is numbered and ready to go….or at least the top half of it is…..at least I can build half a loco! overall a huge difference between my converted Adams radial and bandon tank older brother no.479. right now she sits on a tri-ang wagon awaiting that sweet sweet chassis….I know Fowler 4F has been suggested In the past, but if anyone has any suggestions for what I can put underneath this loco, it would be greatly apericiated…..I don’t think 464 likes being a 4-4-0T too much
  25. 466, 469 And 470 (the latter was only there for a year) went up to dublin. 466 wore CIE green from 1948. Although 467 may also have worn green… Another option would be to role it out in what 00 Works perceived as the CBSC livery. I beleive this is another approximation of what some believe the CBSC to be like. The white lining on some coaches made it easier to identify some old kinsale branch photos I came across
