Excellent looking forward to seen the updates , i usually get an hour or so in the night time after the little missys go to bed. The best buy on the workbench is a clock as otherwise the birds wouls be singing outside before id realise that id been at the bench for hours.

Thanks bud, how are the ammonias coming along?

Many thanks Eamonn, finished 072 off earlier on & is now ready for the annual weedspray tour. Weedspray headboards are from the Glenderg models range and are pretty impressivein their own right, these complete the list of jobs done to the loco nicely.

Many thanks for the kind offer and advice Richie

Roof built (wont look so wavy when attached permanently & addedsupports) & all the windows + doors have been cut out its been a tough build so far but hopefully the worst bits have been done:rolleyes: .

Yeah they flew outside of irish sovereign aerospace but in the irish controlled aerospace.

Best of luck Bud, you ll be grand just take your time.

Pm sent Jb:tumbsup:

I ll take it JB if its still going

071 has a orange wiper too which may also help

Definetly interested if their still around

Did you see Michael Wyses piece on the Waterford History facebook page?

Waterford harbour has been fairly successful with the liners with berths ranging from 4.5m at the city quays, 9m at Belview and deeper still at DunmoreEast when using the pontoon . The highlight of last year was three liners berthed at the same time on Frank Cassin & the North Wharf. So theres hope for DL harbour yet !!!

Bogie cements & fertiliser bogie wagons would be top of my want list

Why? The Ryanair 737-200 never had winglets, they only appeared on the later models.

The new station master surveys his new station building , 8 more windows & doors to cut out .

Saw them in the flesh yesterday, Think this sums up my thoughts on them.

Saturday 7/2/15 Hi lads , Theres a railway exhibition on in The Sands Hotel, Tramore on Saturday 7th of february. This is an initiative between Waterford County Council & Tramore Tourism and will feature 70 plus photos of the old Waterford to Tramore railway as well as tickets and other railwayana from the line which is not normally on show to the public. The long term plans for this project is restoration of the station building in tramore along with a ride along railway between the station and the strand. This event is free and a model of the plans will be on show at the event. Contact details are http://www.tramore.ie 051 508027

The plan is too model it in its late noughties guise around the time of the reconstruction/reopening of the Midleton line. The station has gone through major changes over the years, the earliest pic i can find is from the 1880's and i only found out where the original signal cabin( pre 1923 )was located the other day!!!

Thanks for the comments gents Started work on the other main building, work is a bit slow as i ve lost my photo file of the building but i ll be up in Cork over the weekend so i ll get plenty of replacement photos.

Glounthaune mk 2, a few years back i measured up Glounthaune station building, added to the measurements i got the plans of the former station buildings out of the property section of the examiner from when the buildings were sold a few years back. After a lot of head scratching and over use of the calculator i figured out the various roof angles and more importantly the scale measurements . I constructed the building out of plasticard with wills tiled roof sheets, i ve now started with the detailing so hopefully i can get it complete in the next few weeks.

Don t think.it was Blaine who made the comment!!!! The days of sacrificing major details are gone thankfully, for any model to succeedit has to be realistic and neither the cl 33 or a standard sf a class meet todays standards.

No prob

Always spelt ValenCia on the station nameboard right up to.closure. The layout is excellent and had a recent model rail article about it. The builder is building Courtmacsherry next

Have a few mir empty mir boxes if your interested .
