Just finished building the Provincial Wagons CIE Bullied open wagon. Nice little kit and very enjoyable to build. The running gear underneath is a little tricky,just take your time.A nice kit for anyone who would like to try a resin kit for the first time.I used a bit of scrap brass for the things that stop the door from fouling the running gear.Not sure if they look a bit thin,I can use slightly larger scrap brass if needed.

A nice scene,and 161sa looking well.
-
I know the feeling. I walked away twice from Marks stall But 077 called me back-buy me buy me. I am now the proud owner of 077,073-IR 073-IE freight,078,082,112,085,075,071 grey.I can resist everything only temptation.

Jim has a nice collection on show alright.

I bought this nice Bullied open wagon at the Dublin show,and could not resist 077 joining the fleet either when she was going for 139euro.While at the Wexford show I picked up two nice transits to add to the fire fleet.
-
I met Fran and Patrick at the show yesterday and have ordered 12 myself. Great to see such a positive response to the ballast wagons.
-
The wheel arrangement does look strange.
-
Crossley engines were originally in the A and C class,but proved very unreliable in service,hence they were replaced by GM engines.
-
I bought the shapeways ballast hopper body's a few years ago which worked out at about over 80 euro for 4.By the time you factor the prestwin chassis paint etc.Very good value from this new venture.
-
Very best of luck with this release. I am thinking if a nice rake of Gypsum Hoppers which I persume are the same as the ballast wagons.I will get a few for sure,and the thoughts of a quality rtr bubble sounds great.
-
Have to agree,new look is great. Thanks to all concerned.
-
Looks great Tom.
-
They are Jim Poots and shapeways kits.

Thanks for the comments guys. I am currently trying to finish off the Dapol Esso tankers with the SSM brass detail.Having finished the ladder and walkway,just to sort some small detail before painting. I have also just finished my M class Bus kit.

The bullieds are very nice.

Grand Tom. I hope you don't have a sore neck looking at the sideways photo.

Very impressive, and detailed work.
-
Very nice Tommy. 039 looks great and seems a smooth runner.112 is class with the sound.
-
I do hope MM will anounce something on the 121s soon.The IR and IE versions will be my favourite.

I fear for the future of this line. I can't see IE allowing even empty Stock on the line in the future. -

A few shot's from Wellingtonbridge and Campile Co Wexford yesterday.087 was looking very well.She was only allowed to do about 15 mph.
