    Volume three of this popular title from Jim Edgar will shortly become available Again available from the RPSI website shop This volume covers Dublin and the south east and has some real gems of photos and will be a useful asset to any modeller modelling the 1970-1990s period on CIE and IR.

    Love the correct prototypical Mk3 coach formation-and as the lads have said the last photo really captures the whole Heuston scene-well done Rob

    Yes it certainly is something special

    Just a thought….. Would it be worth the MRSI and SDMRC and possibly Wexford MRC and NDMRC pooling their resources and maybe use the RDS as a single venue for future events? With the increase in Irish railway modelling in this country surely an annual event similar to model rail Glasgow and Warley could be arranged and marketed with the potential of UK clubs being invited to exhibit their layouts etc, Maybe it is one to discuss for the future.

    The cattle bank siding has now been relaid with standard gauge track… More rolling stock is due to arrive hopefully before the Christmas. Note-the signal cabin has gained “new”windows and a name board.

    Well done to all concerned with organising the exhibition after a difficult few years -the main hall was a bit cramped,but enjoyed the layouts-Rathmichael,Castletown,Kildare and Bill’s Donegal layout were the favourites, It was a shame that Chris Dyer didn’t make it-(through no fault of his own) Enjoyed meeting the usual suspects, IRM,Murphy models were perfectly placed in the main room, Roll on Blackrock in 2023

    Will the models feature the external digital destination displays on the front and side of the coaches ? And would the destinations be capable of being changed?
