What do you want from 3D printing?
Westcorkrailway replied to Westcorkrailway's topic in General Chat
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! -

Westcorkrailway replied to Westcorkrailway's topic in General Chat
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 -

Gorgeous new IRM Branding goes live to mass acclaim!
Westcorkrailway replied to Westcorkrailway's topic in Site News & Help
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 -
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

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 -

I wonder could one gain a few Ukrainian volounteers -
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

It’s been there for years, often the same eejit posting about moyesta on tiktok would break in and explore these “forgotten coaches” -
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)

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 -

Well we know of the Ruston 88ds…..will it be able to pull all the stock coming it’s way…. -
There mustn’t be very much stuff left that is “GSR livery appropriate” perhaps we can import some Pullman’s and put some 5,3 bogeys under them…
-
813 looks great in that livery, however if it’s going to maam cross I imaging a coat of GSR livery will be applied once the apropriate TLC has been applied
