  1. I was fortunate to have this pair about 20 years ago in Claremorris, 130 in tippex IR livery working with the recently repainted 135 in IE livery....yet another livery combination.
  2. I'm delighted with this announcement and will look forward to checking out the pre production models at Raheny in October, My visions of some sound fitted CIE Supertrain,IR and IE liveried 121 locos on Tara Jctn together with my 141/181 fleet will become a reality by next Christmas hopefully, Well done Mr Murphy.
  3. Agreed,I'm looking forward to this one along with Irish railway rambler, Well done JHB,keep up the good work.
  4. Happy new year to all from the Chief operating officer of Tara Junction, Track recording car EM50 is seen passing through the station.
  5. Late night action at the junction sees loco 190 haul two BR and a Dutch steam heating van and a Mk2 EGV on the bi-directional line past 175 on the branch set and 220 on the 10 piece Mk2 a/b set-it is destined for the loco shed in the distance where some maintenance will be carried out on them.
  6. Looks great.
  7. Happy Christmas to all forum members.
  8. Thanks lads for your comments, Thanks also to Irishthump for his excellent advice on CV settings for my 141\181 sound chipped locos-Much appreciated.
  9. Yes Michael-a new bridge has been constructed at the far end-and yes the buses will make a return-they are an important feature of the layout.
  10. Thanks lads-175 has arrived with the branch set and prepares to run around.
  11. Some early morning activity at Tara Jctn, 073 has arrived from Waterford with an empty timber train and is awaiting 0117078 to depart from the up siding with the HOBS train, 29001 has arrived at the new branch platform and will shortly depart back along the newly relaid branch line to Lakeview station, In the other direction 175 has charge of the branch set comprising of the two Park Royal and one Cravens coach and BR van. In the foreground 0117080 and 0117076 await their next turn of duty.
  12. I attending this exhibition last weekend and was impressed with the standard and quality layouts that were on show, There was a large attendance in particular on Sunday where a long queue had formed at the entrance even after the 10:30 opening time, Lots of traders and bargains to be had.. One of my favourite layouts was"Whiteacre"OO gauge modern image which had lots of interesting operations and held the crowd for most of the day.
  13. Next on the production line are three KE CIE expressway coaches.... Thanks to Jim Poots for providing the kits.
  14. Yes there was-on another table.....
  15. Like our own 071 class celebrating 40 years in traffic next year,the HST is the same....this for me was a great line up of the various liveries from the beginning-all OO gauge.
  16. I attended the Warley exhibition today and I wasn't disappointed, Nice to see O'Connell street flying the flag Lots and lots to entertain and great bargains, Warren lane container depot was one of my favourite layouts and I spent quite a bit of time watching its operation,
  17. Paul,I'm delighted you have decided to venture down the OO gauge track, As with your previous fabulous N gauge projects I have no doubt this layout will be up to your usual high standard, Best of luck with it....go DCC as you won't regret it-I haven't, I'll be watching your progress with interest.
  18. Nice one Des-another useful alternative and badly needed.
  19. The driver of 161SA notches off power while passing through Tara Jctn Station with a mixed rake of Park royal and Cravens coaches which are forming a relief special following 086SA on a Mk3 Super train set.
  20. Looks the part Noel,well done IFM
