  1. Hi everyone, First of all, I do like 207 and I wouldn't mind 233 in the same livery/condition. Lovely models these are and I currently have five of them in my fleet in the form of 201, 8208, 210, 222 and my beast 229. As much as I love the weathering, I think I would prefer to have 233 in pristine condition as my excuse for this is that I can park it near my old decrepid Lima train washer on the access track. Although thanks to ModelFair having a sale, I can buy a couple of donor locomotives as I would like to have 221 in the same livery as my 222 and 229 but weathered to make it look more realistic . Without going too off-topic, I have a question regarding the real GM Class 201's. Would anyone know if these locomotives have a loud turbo howl when in Notch 8? I ask this because the MP40PH's that Go Transit use have the same EMD 710 prime mover and they make a nice howl in Notch 8. So I was just wondering if the GM Class 201's made a similar noise. Thanks Ash.
  2. I've just been looking at the photos of this fantastic layout and the video footage as well. This one has to be the largest Irish-based layotu I have seen up to yet and the amount of rolling stock is incredible as well. I really like the station area and the "Enterprise" trains as well mate . Not sure if anyone has tried this, but I wonder if the Virgin Pendolino carriages could be converted to resemble the CAF MkIV's that are used between Dublin and Cork? You might get away with kit-bashing a Class 395 "Javelin" driving trailer for the DVT if it could be "squared off" a bit at the front? Just a thought. Keep up the great work anyway buddy. Ash.
  3. Nice work buddy! I would love to order a set of these carriages to go with my 8208 River Lagen. Where can I order these carriages from? Sorry if I am jumping in with a big splash here but I am new to this forum, although I am into modelling Irish Railways .
