The work bench at the moment has me looking at projects that are on the long finger. The MIR 121 needs a little work on the paint work and the sw 1500 chassis will be looked at as regards will it be of any use at all.The MIR 071 has a decent sd9 chassis and I am thinking of doing the plastic card upgrade. The Wickham inspection car needs a 35mm black to get her going and more paint and bits to finish her off. I have the SSM brass detail kits to do 4 more esso tankers so these will keep me going for a few weeks.

Wonderfull Richie.I have been on that viaduct with track on it and with track lifted and always found it a joy to look at.There is something magical about it. The guy who took that photo David Parks told me he had a pass to travel on a few of the weed killer trains to Ballinacourty in the 80s and remembers traveling in the accommodation van with the door open sitting on a chair going across that viaduct.

Lovely hurling Richie.I look forward to a update on Ballyvoyle viaduct.

Noel if you are looking for a speaker for your 141 check out Murphy models Site-reviews, which has feature from Model rail a number of years ago on installing A chip and speaker.DCC supplies have the speakers.I think it's a 4 ohm speaker You need if it's a MSB chip.Georgeconna on here did a brilliant feature on this himself on a previous site, but this is lost in cyberspace space now.

Expo or Vintage day is on Sunday 7th September in the village of Caim near Enniscorthy.A real culchie fest, but no lovely girls competition.

Thanks lads.Yes she was built quick and I only used what bits of timber that were around the shed.Ye can't see the full Horror of my poor carpentry skills, however it's great what a bit of filler and a lick of paint can do.

Richie, any update on Ballyvoyle viaduct or have I missed it.
-
I always like class 80 builds,you are doing a great job.
-
Very nice Design. Will give you a shout soon.
-
Thanks lads.Shes nice and simple with no Station,and best of all it fits into my shed very well for storage.Now that this is just finished I have to start back at the layout in the attic, that is in need of a lot of work.

I started this little display unit in May and built it with bits and bobs that I had around the place.I plan to show her off at a vintage day in September with sound chipped 071,201,001 and 141s with cement,beet wagons and perhaps a short craven and BR van.Anyway some photos and video-

Nice job Noel.Reminds me to sort out my own grab rails on grey 071.

mk3 EGV brass etch conversion
enniscorthyman replied to shamrock712's question in Questions & Answers
If you go back to nearly the start of enniscorthyman workbench you will see some photos of my conversion of the SSM overlay on a old spare Hornby mk3 restaurant coach.I did find it difficult to get the brass Sides to curve at the bottom.You will have to cut away part of the sides of donor coach once you have alined the brass etch.Make sure the brass and coach sides are scored so they glue well together.Also when painting you will need to use a primer that can be used on brass. -
Beautiful Kieran. Fantastic video.
