  1. Hi Midland Man,the horse van was built by a friend who gave it to me. As far as I know it's a alphagraphix kit on a Parkside Dundas chassis.
  2. Just finished a SSM 30 ton brake van.I gave her a test run behind 190 and all is well.Some minor work to do as the roof is sticking up in one place. 20200419_162628.mp4
  3. On mentioning that the 121s stand taller than the 141s,I remember somewhere being mentioned that the 071 class stand slightly taller than the 141/181 class as well.
  4. Hi the LC gates are scratch built with parts from IFM kit.The layout is 8 x 3 roughly.

  6. Some work done today with repairs to the road surface on the LC itself and reballasting of new track that replaced a bad dip that caused derailments. 20200317_164638.mp4
  7. Stephen,I used Studio Scale Models decals.George had renumbered 080 to 075 for me,but I thought I would have a go at a new number.
  8. Some repair work on 084,which I renumbered from 075.A broken lamp iron was replaced,and some of the handrails supports were glued back into place.I think she is looking well now. The weathering was done by George Norman.
  9. That looks like the blanking plate that covers the 21 pins when the loco is running dc.

  12. The October 1988 journal has a brief account on the MK3 push pulls,if that's any use.
  13. Dr,I have been told by a person in the know that 082 has a different Turbo charger than the rest of the 071 fleet,hence why she sounds so good. I am subject to correction on that answer.
  14. I was down at the Wexford Model Railway club this evening and had a good look at a fellow members 2 Ferts that he got.I was very impressed by them as were everyone who viewed them.Well done to IRM.In one of the photos I posted,a MIR Fert is shown with the IRM pair.
  15. I was going to say I could pop over with a tape measure.
  16. Just a few dislodged handrails by the looks of it.Very nice bogie cements Shem.
  17. Colm O Callaghans book has some great photos of Fert Trains.
  18. Paddy did say it was a sugar cube speaker under the main pcb just behind the main grills.Dont know what chip it is,but it is one if his own.
  19. Paddy Murphy was at the Wexford Model Railway Club today with sound chipped examples of the 121 class. Very impressive. 20200111_153933.mp4

  21. Happy New Year to all.
  22. The IRM site shows areas that require some lube.From accounts that I have read,this solves any issues.
  23. I ran mine for the first time yesterday.They did derail at one spot on my layout which is due for replacement as the track is bad.I will use some of the recommended lube when I get to a shop.Fantastic detail in them.
