Nice to have you back Anthony talk soon,great videos btw.

Many thanks gents... Another photo from some enjoyable operations this evening around the MPD Works pilot loco Sulzer 101 hauls two 071s (075 and 088) into the main shed for attention in order to get them back into traffic At the other side of the depot 0117078 hauled loco 210 out of the running shed to allow the fitters to start up the loco.... I've allocated 210 to a driver training run tomorrow while 7078 will be allocated to the bogie bulk cement train for a few days..

Two short videos..... Enjoy....

Sorry to see you leave the forum Thomas, Your contributions have been very valuable and informative.

Nice neat work there Tom....

Nice job there Eamonn.

Had it happened exactly one hour earlier then it would have been a different story-he would have been one unlucky postman-as the 201 hauled IWT liner would have had a different effect on the outcome......

Well done-excellent build, looks great...

Well done Kieran-your research and patience have definatly paid off.

Brilliant recreation there Andy....

Thanks Sean-That's a great idea,leave that one with me, It should be an easy one to set up....

Thanks lads for your comments Thanks to Jim at Marls models Dublin for the supply of the Carliow station building.. Here we see DVT 9001 working the Enterptoee service arrive at Central station 9001 arrives with the enterprise set while 229 passes with the IWT liner

With thanks to the Wanderer for the inspirational photo-I was able to recreate the wagon transfer 011077 gets priority with the wagon transfer comprising of two Container pocket wagons and an ex works timber bogie wagon while in the distance 229 is held at the stop signal with the IWT liner. 011077 passes the recently rebuilt Tara Jctn station with the wagon transfer, 086 has charge of the FO Cravens set on platform 2. Another view of the wagon transfer on the bi directional four track lines.

I finished the M class and KC class buses over the last few days... KC1 on a test run The KC and KD at the high street bus stop 48 IK on the Galway route is passed by 1 IK which is operating the Tralee route. A selection of buses pass each other on the high street...

Excellent job there Eamonn,the pipe work and the wheels really make the difference...

Already in the planning stage hf.......

Seriously tempted now Eoin......well done on what is an excellent model....I have your brochure and your number....

The driver training didn't take place today as the training bus broke down....ah well maybe tomorrow......

This arrived this morning,thanks to Seamus Graham for his usual speedy service I must say I'm delighted with the Carlow station building as it really fits in and adds that extra Irish station feeling to the layout, Highly recommended for any Irish themed layout, I also added the Hornby station canopy-which after a small modification fitted perfectly,although I think I might paint it a grey colour instead of the dark blue... The new Tara junction station building. Paul the station manager is delighted with his new building.... A nice crowd gather for the evening commuter service to the city.... Arrow liveried 2601+2602 arrive from the south with the evening commuter service.. Paul the station manager gives the right away signal to the driver and returns to his new office.

Humbrol Matt grey number 27 and Revell Matt yellow-(SM 310) for the warning panel. Thanks lads for all your comments....

Thanks Stephen...I've just ordered one.

Thank you Railer, 077 was repainted by myself with the grab rails removed and the area filed and sanded flush with the body-then repainted with the correct shade of yellow, transfers were from the Railtec range. 078 is an original Murphy model grey again with the above modification done, Loco 234 is sound fitted with the transfers coming from the SSM range....

Thanks Tom, I got those walkways here...http://www.knightwing.co.uk/images/product/small/pm134.jpg
