Killian Keane replied to Killian Keane's topic in Irish Models
Unfortunately no it cant be reused in resin printing, it gets thrown out -

magnificent work as usual! Ireland's only Pacific I think?
-
Both the gent that designed that and the gent selling it are top chaps to deal with too, cant recommend them enough (you'll find the odd kit of mine on that website too!)

Id say the 7 1/4" one is about as close as we'll ever get to seeing the real one steam! I have a kit in 00 for the hornby royal scot chassis, soon to be made for the Airfix RS chassis too

None to show since the last update Im afraid, I was rather tied up over Christmas, a lot of commission jobs on too, as soon as work quietens down a bit and I get a free moment I'll be right back on that project -

Thank you very much, I dont think I have seen those photos, have you a link please?

Hi Mol, Yeah its the table that existed in front of the brick built office up to the late 1890s (this photo is 1897) I agree on photos of other tables being the best option, the one of Bray in 1968 here I think wouldnt be far off

Lets see where this comes on a scale of moderately unsuccessful to spectacularly unsuccessful shall we

You really do put the rest of us to shame Alan! Not only the breathtaking quality of the builds but the pace you're able to turn them out at

Its an earlier W&L drawing, dated to January 1895 according to the HMRS listing

Thankfully this particular diagram is devoid of the ends bowing in https://hmrs.org.uk/hmrs-22836-third-class-5-compartments-9ft-7ins-9ft-7ins-w-b-30ft-o-b.html

From the side as you say they look dead on for GSWR style, I wouldnt know which was the scale model, I just recently came across a WLWR 6W 5 comp on HMRS that bears more than a passing resemblance to the generics... just time to wait until someone re releases them

a seasonal loco? the Reindeer class from the London Chatham and Dover Railway, not an Irish loco but at least designed by an Irish person, William Martley

I hadnt heard about his passing until now, awful shock, great loss to the hobby as he was a master of the craft

Ive had more than one enquiry whether the 800 will fit the Airfix tender drive Royal Scot, it occurred to me this is an awful lot more accessible to most people than the hornby version, so Ive secured one from UK Ebay for the princely sum of £23 and will be making a version to fit -
Gauge of interest: MGWR A class/ GSR CIE D5 4-4-0
Killian Keane replied to GSR 800's topic in Irish Models
Oh dear perhaps I oughn't to have done such an adequate job on the 800 LOL but no if we get enough backing Id love to do this whats the rule of thumb? 'if you have a 4-4-0 and an 0-6-0 you can run 99% of Irish steam era trains' or in the earlier era a 2-4-0 and 0-6-0 -
Its already looking very elegant indeed, seems to glide along

I for one wont be going back to them, I was getting a lot of complaints from customers about the shocking print quality, I was making very very little money, and my customers were being charged through the nose (2-3 times what I charge for high quality resin prints), I had abandoned them long before they declared bankruptcy
