  1. Does anyone have any info on the A classes that ran preserved in the late 90s? A3 seems to have been knocking about in black and tan for a few years in Inchicore (not sure if it did a mainline run) and A39 did a few railtours on the network in CIE silver?
  2. So I got the airbrush out for the first time and weathered the track. No where near a perfect result and it started a load of extra work to tidy up ballast but it was a learning experience.
  3. Right with you there. I'm a bit freight heavy so I'll say an Arrow, Mk3 and Mk3 Push Pull also.
  4. My money is on oil wagons. Also hoping for pallet cements, 4w flats, Ammonia etc. etc. etc.
  5. Are there any plans for the release of a Dutch livery or more triple grey liveries in the future?
  6. I bought some Kadees to see how they look and perform. Fairly happy with them. Only issue is I need to remove the Coupling hooks from my locos which isn't ideal as I like to have them fully detailed. The Kadees I am using at 18s. Are these too close? Can anyone advise?
  7. I got mine yesterday. Thanks Dave.
  8. Selling this model of Irish Rail 071 class no. 082 in silver and black railfreight livery. The model suits 2007 to around 2015 and would be right at home pulling IRM weedspray, spoil, ballast, Tara and cement wagons as well as any IÉ era coaching stock. The model has been used although the box and seperately fitted detail are virtually perfect. I am selling as the model does not suit my era and I would like to replace it with one that does. If anyone wants to swap Murphy 078 or an IR baby GM for this model please PM me. Otherwise I will be posting it on ebay in the coming days.
  9. I have also detailed a wagon from each rake. This involved adding tail lamps from Glenderg models, instanter couplings from Accurascale and removing the function Coupling. I also added the anti theft barrier to one of the container wagons.
  10. I'll get some Modelu figures eventually but until then...
  11. 129 is on the branch service tonight.
  12. 129 and 133 are in the yard while 220 arrives with kegs from Dublin and 143 waits to leave with empty kegs.
  13. Can we have a petition to make this the next livery of RPSI 134 after it gets the Flying Snail?
  14. Could you go smaller? I put the magnetic coupling I usually have on the baby GMs and they're slightly too long. Kadee 18s are what fits the babies.
  15. Has anyone put Kadees on the 121s yet?
  16. The first of many keg specials this week.
  17. 129 and 133 getting fuel. Some detail added to 30177. Ballast in the yard.
  18. The ballast rake arrived today hauled by 143. They passed 133 and 129 sitting in the headshunt.
  19. I'd say SSM do them currently. But I'd say it's better to paint them rather than trying to lay transfers around lights. I
  20. My frustration exactly. I will echo that!
  21. I can solder alright but removing the body on such detailed locos and knowing what to do with the board is another story. I'd give it to a professional.
  22. Despite my moaning about quality issues... 129 and 133 on an early morning fertiliser train.
