Screenshots, pushing together, cropping….and then finding a place with a good A3 printer Or you could travel to location and take a panoramic picture with your phone (if your phone has that panoramic picture feature)
-
If IRM were ever to do a C class. Would they do 2 C231’s. One in that green as it is so popular and the other in the “as preserved” ITG greeen

Donegal-themed Zoom night Tuesday 25th Jan from 19:45
Westcorkrailway replied to Niles's topic in What's On?
I’ve been too all of them thus far. All 2! -
They look alright without painting I suppose. indeed I was thinking was it going to be the lighter grey or the later brown livery. Probobly fair to say weathering can bring that light brown to that colour
-
Look fantastic! which livery will they be put into?
-
Obviously I’m far from the stage where I’m drowning in models. But sounds like ye should just label some of yer boxes “moyesta”
-
Currently at £1 is to €1.20…..worst it’s been in a while
-
So a slightly different version of the brakevan altogether. Steel sheeted would be simular but not identical to SSM kit of the 30 ton variant
-
Are the updated versions of the 20t brakevans part of the 2nd wave of flying snail stencil vans that were released for pre order in January?
-
It can help but it does not completely pay the bills. The fintown railway is in such a beutiful spot (probobly the most beutiful of any heritage line in this country) and yet struggles with numbers due to it’s completely isolated sport.
-
The part built one looks great! I’m sure northern Irish modellers, or in fact anyone who needs more of an excuse to run NIR mk2 stock.
-
I’d Agree. that brief shot of the J15 winding its way slowly through the countryside. back in topic. Much of what Silver/Green/Black/Black n Tan can be seen in this brief clip that popped in my feed this evening that’s part of a longer dvd (could not get the link to clip so here are a few exerts, can be found in west cork model village Facebook) more importantly C212 will give an idea for some models of what Crossely did to A42….it looks like a completely different colour. As do all the wagons
-
Provincial wagons can make a 1:1 scale kit. As James may once did with an airfix spitfire. Loughrea, a Black n tan A class and a rake of provincial wagons “1950s cattle wagons”. Now that’s a layout that I’d like to be seen done
-
The last train on the macroom line was a cattle train. It made the line look very busy in the photographs when in fact the line was only used for cattle specials and only occurred once a month.
-
I’ll take one (a few) of those in 00…..
-
We’re cattle wagons in the vocabulary of the early years of the A class. I’m considering picking up a few of these wagons anyway.
-
so we won’t be waiting too long for release upon announcement…..fantastic
-
I think it was 13. We already have the sambre meus bogeys on this side of 2022 already!
-
Such a nice livery. The nicest remaining livery in my opinion The bookies will put A30 odds on. But I think A42 will be the last to sell out
-
I suppose that does hold slight truth. My parents would always have associated orange and black with 80s and 90s days of Irish rail. Perhaps nostalgia for those 1980s and 90s could be key if ever the cravens were to go back to prototype livery’s. Cashing in on the nostalgia from that era. The amount of people that remember the GNR and UTA to those who remember the 40ish years of orange and black liveries down in the south. Nostalgia sells! unfortunately I’m so young, I can barely remember 141s in service!
-
Somone will have to photoshop some black and green cravens for us. I wonder would IE object to using orange coaches now? Putting the cravens into there prototype livery
-
I would have liked to have seen these coaches with even the top orange band completed to make a more consistent but completely fictional livery
-
One of the best way to justify buying an Irish model when it’s new….put “murphy models” into eBay and seeing a 200 percent increase in price
-
this came up on a Facebook group “British diesel locomotives”. The 165 DS in CSE livery, G class in CIE black and “westrail” livery E class
-
Now THAT is exceptional actually, what’s is the loco/wagon in front of maebh?
