  1. Replace them with some PECO points as those Hornby ones tend to wear out, fit some new fishplates and you will notice a difference in running also.
  2. A natural sunlight shot take (just by chance) this morning shows a line up of 141 locos being prepared for service led by 143 with 146 behind
  3. I don't blame you Herflick-well worth listening to...
  4. Good luck with the new site Seamus-looking forward to viewing it....
  5. Belated happy birthday UP
  6. Excellent video Eamonn-A39 and 190 sound great-It was a brilliant operating session.... h g-Thanks for the useful info re; the fertiliser wagons-your always welcome at Tara junction...
  7. Sure was an excellent an memorable day....
  8. Excellent progress there Barl and nice to see an update of your scenic layout....
  9. As usual Kieran top class work,love your depot and the hard standing area looks great.
  10. Progressing well Vincent-look forward to more updates.
  11. Nice work Sean,those bogie wagons will look great as the timber train wagons.
  12. Remember lads there are two sides to every story-and what you see is not nice,but speaking from experience when people are vulnerable they are an easy target for scumbags who take great satisfaction in provoking people-and this is what happened here......that's all I'll say on the matter.
  13. Simply superb work Richie-one of the best scratch built models I've ever seen-it certainly captures the weathered look of the Donelli gantries to perfection.
  14. That's Eamonns department Stephen.....and will be shown over the next few days....we are going for a few pints of the black stuff now....
  15. I had a visitor from the sunny southeast this afternoon when enniscorthyman brought his two axle ballast train with sound fitted loco 190 along to assist with some Perway duties alongside my current HOBS train with sound fitted 011077, An excellent and enjoyable eveing was had operating the various trains, Eamonns sound fitted A39 also made an appearance hauling an ITG Cravens special-both locos sounding and looking great.... Both ballast trains are side by side awaiting clearance into the Perway possessions. A busy scene on Tara junction-190 awaits clearance to discharge ballast while 077 has discharged some of its ballast and is propelling back to load again. A39 works over the up line as maintenece work is taking place on the down line A39 operates through Tara junction station at a reduced speed of 25mph.
  16. Heirflick-they are all the same when they are upside down you know.....!!!!!
  17. Lovely set up Andy-and a great story to add to it,more please...
  18. Its already there Sean......there was a loco change at Kildare.....084 went to Inchicore and 077 was attached for the run to Tara Junction........
  19. Ritchie-your a mind reader, there was a fair bit of shunting to do to get the whole formation together....but it was fun all the same I'd say the reason the weed spray coach 3187 has been added is that from what I could tell from Sean's video, the lads that are monitoring the Sperry wagon via laptops have now been moved to the weed spray coach instead of the rear cab of the loco as has been the case since the Sperry wagon has been introduced-they can now monitor the wagon in comfort without the need to have to move their equipment every time the loco is detached, plus they now have a mess room area and more space in 3187 to move around.
  20. With thanks to Sean (gm171kk) for insperation...the 2013 Sperry train made a late night appearance on Tara junction.... The only change is I have 011077 hauling it... Weedspray coach 3187 is seen at the rear of the Sperry train. The Sperry wagon and 3187. 011077 hauls the Sperry train past 086SA which is slowly hauling a fertiliser train out of the freight yard. 011077 passes through Central station on the down fast line passing the DMU depot with an ICR being washed and serviced and a 2600 in original Arrow livery awaiting it's next turn of duty.
