  1. Just finished a Provincial wagons side opening container.I used a Dapol Prestwin kit for the chassis,along with extra detail from Dart castings which include buffers and draw hooks.The Prestwin chassis is a bit short in length,but I am happy enough with it.
  2. I am very much looking forward to the plough vans.I remember seeing these vans on a Ballast at Enniscorthy Station,must have been 1978.It had a 001 class at the head of affairs.That time you could walk up to the loading area and watch the ballast wagons been loaded.My late father would normally end up chatting to the driver for ages while I watched the action.
  3. All 3 kits are built now.I need to buy some primer tomorrow so I can get cracking on the painting.
  4. I have 4 MIR kits to build and got one finished.So I got going on the final 3 kits.I can' seem to upload all the photos,here is what I got to upload.
  5. Just finished a Provincial Wagon CIE side opening container.I bought a pack of 4 at the Wexford show and these kits will all rest on a Prestwin chassis.I am not sure if my decals are placed in the right place.
  6. I would love to have one. I suppose it would be savage money for a rtr 071.
  7. Looking very tasty
  8. Hi Paddy,I used self flashing smd leds that run off 3 volts.You can buy them on e bay as well as the micro on off switch and the Battery holder.If you get a chance to come along to the Wexford model railway clubs Easter show ,I will have this van and others on display. Eamonn
  9. 085 with speed lock.https://youtu.be/z3X8VckLUcU
  10. I will post to YouTube and repost.
  11. A bit video of 220 showing Mr Sound guys speed lock.When the speed is selected,f6 is pressed which allows you to rev up and down while the loco stays at the same speed.This sound chip also has Realdrive which allows the loco to coast https://youtu.be/LcGMASMRLVQ
  12. Super selection of goodies comming out this year.
  13. I will be bringing "Ballyredmond" and hope to run sound chipped 001,141,071,201 locos with a selection of freight wagons and MK3 Push Pull passenger stock.
  14. I would love to go to the gathering,unfortunately I have something on the day to go to.I can' wait to hear what' in the pipeline.
  15. 075 with a test run of Beet wagons.
  16. Thanks Guys. I don' know yet if I will put a load in.
  17. A last all 12 Beet wagons are built and painted.6 have been weathered with Rust wash and powders and the other 6 be done shortly.At a later stage I hope to use Kadees on all the wagons.
  18. Some trees and other bits added to the layout.
  19. I am not sure,as I just matched the height of the embankment to the bridge.
  20. It' the best thing since sliced bread.
  21. The workbenck is in full swing with Beet wagons.I have 5 more to build and will have a nice rake of 12 when finished.
  22. Hi Peter,the orange for the 201 class body can be bought from Halfords or VinnieByrne.com as a made up aerosol can.The paint code is RAL 2011.
  23. Happy Christmas everyone.
  24. I have just finished my Ballast plough van.The only problems I encountered was with the roof which is difficult enough to fit.I put s few bits of lead inside the body for a bit of weight.Some photos of the build won't upload for me for some reason.
  25. Packs B and C arrived to me today. I am delighted with them,and I think they look nice with 112.
