    An early 1990s scene being recreated here as we see an Irish rail ERF tractor unit with a tri axle bulk cement tanker commence operating from the cement silo area of the Lakeview freight yard as unloading of two axle bubble cement wagons has commenced.

    After encountering reliability issues with the original motor under Arrow railcar 2601+2602,I decided it was time to upgrade, A bargain purchase at Model rail Scotland of a Class 150 DMU enabled me to upgrade with ease,with the added bonus of interior lights and seating-(not possible on the original chassis) A built in speaker will allow me to transfer the original sound file onto the chip. Here are a few photos of the Arrow as she prepares to depart on an evening service to Kildare.

    Morning DJ Yes it is a herpa model with the timber load altered to suit Irish operations. The Scania is 1:76-an Oxford model and the trailer is 1:87, I agree there is a noticeable difference between both scales.
