    Old news

    Old and slow trains replaced-the Rosslare line has shown no improvement in journey time dispite New stock,track,signalling,and in fact the journey time in 1985 from Wexford to Enniscorthy was faster with Park Royals and jointed track!.If I was going to be in a accident at the moment on IE I would not like to be in a railcar by the sounds of it.
  2. Mike Oldfield -Two sides-The best of Mike Oldfield.Top notch stuff and worth having in the collection.
  3. Yes you right as i made my own adjustments but cutting to get things to fit good god give me a mk3 EGV anyday. As regards a career move,you could be on to something:-bd
  4. I have just finished a Wills PO kit that I converted to a an post Post Office.This is my first time using a wills kit and to be honest found it a fecker to build as everything has to be cut and is in no way superquick.Anyway its done now and I am happy with the result along with the tardis-sorry phone box with a vexed couple having a row.So for all your stamps and parcels call to Redmonds Post Office.
  5. I have to agree,outstanding photos.
  6. Great stuff,and best of luck with this venture.I will get some cement wagons in the new year when the 071 expensive calms down.
  7. I may have a look but am nearly sure she does not have traction tyres. The Deltic chassis is a nice runner and a vast improvement on the old lima pancake I have in SF 001 which drives me mad with poor running.
  8. I am glad my cameraman skills are better Shem,and I hope I am doing the A class sound proud with these videos.If I am up your way in the future I will bring A39 up to give her a run on your layout.
  9. Yes you are right that is a steel block on that photo as it came from another SF 001 loco.Anthony is right as regard lead because I tryed the loco on a friends layout that has a incline and she struggled big time with a small load. The loco ran fine as you can see in the latest video as I have a flat surface.At some stage in the future I may add more weight.Anthony did tell me the extra weight makes a big difference as he has some cracking inclines on his layout.
  10. I forgot to ask PM what DCC chip will the new 071s take?. Did anyone else ask him?.
  11. Watch him sprint up Mt Ventoux-incredible stuff when we know how he did it.Even Phil Liggett says he has never seen anything like the power!. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXPXHK7I1iQ&feature=related
  12. Well I suppose it all was too good to be true. He says he did not take drugs as he was only peddling-lol.
  13. Top notch Noel,nice to see a video of your layout.more more Please.
  14. I got a quick video of A39 with a short goods train on the new layout that I am building these last few months for a local vintage day in september.This is the first test train and I have discovered a few problems that need sorting out with clearance etc.
  15. It makes you wonder do truck drivers forget what they have behind them as regards height and with and lenth.
  16. This could be that famous bridge in Portlaois that is hit loads of times lol.

  18. Dave-you are outstanding in your own field.
  19. Fantastic layout there,well done.
  20. Thanks Rich,I got e maill and will reply to you when I get back on the laptop tomorrow as my I pod touch won't let me view photos properly. Eamonn
  21. God no bother,and thanks for posting this in the first place as it show what is now history.Glad ye like the photos and indeed I agree this crossing was the most scenic in the country and why the line was never preserved Going back 20 years when it was intact is beyond me.
  22. I remember you saying that the new Murphy 201s are not quite right in the fuel tank area,what is the difference do you remember. Eamonn
  23. I would agree with you Rich on the 121s,as I would want the 121s closer to production than more 201s to be done.Paddy did say that the 121s are about one or two years away and he said that his own sound chip is on the cards as well.
  24. Fantastic video,and thanks for posting Ciaran.
