  1. Hi chris That's the Maritime Museum Boys - it's a ship from the Museum as far as I know, scratch built by a patron some time ago..... Eoin
  2. Excellent George Great to see the above and to see you this weekend Keep it coming Eoin
  3. A video of SDMRC's Dun Laoghaire DART Station Eoin
  4. Back in style heirflick Nice tank 279 coming on there Eoin
  5. ...I don't have them, yet Eoin
  6. Hi Borithe I could do this with the DART- put an Gauge N DART in an OO DART Eoin
  7. Stunning Borithe Now that's a proper model village Eoin
  8. Hi A know someone who will be delighted to see this, and I know a few who wont! It's the Mock DART, the body was made pre window era and sat in a box until recently, now it's just about finished and ready to go into service.... .......the Mock DART was a model built back in early 1980's to show the public what the train was going to look like, so this is a model of a model! I wonder is that a first? Eoin
  9. Hi Glover It's this one.... .....I'm told by one of the chaps involved that they were the same down south Eoin
  10. Just keeping you up to date, I know the photos are the same as previous but the J10 617 are in these ones, testing out it's new legs n gears, a few problems with the track showed up- 0-6-0 loco is a good engine to test track!! ....and pushing back to Dublin as the DART is on its way.... Eoin & CM
  11. Hi Glover Have you seen Provincial Wagons now do a pretty good Cattle Wagon kit? its not the same satisfaction as kit-bashing to achieve a goal, but if your thinking of a train of them this might be a quicker starting point.... Eoin
  12. Decisions, decisions, - when in doubt do them all..... Eoin
  13. I really like the new system for inserting photos, makes it far easier to add in text descriptions now that one sees the photo in the editor Great Eoin
  14. Hi 617 had its buffers painted red, SMM decal number added to the front buffer beam, new axle spacers and final drive gear installed which has improved the running- minimal lurch now. I sourced the replacement axle spacers from Peters Spares.... And a shot pulling a bit of freight out at Greystones yesterday morning Eoin
  15. Train & Model Fair at Bray Wheelers Clubhouse, Schools Road, off Boghall Road. Bray 10.30 to 2.30
  16. Nice one BosKonay, it's looking great Eoin
  17. I wonder how I could get me hands on some of those millions- it would help DART expansion! Eoin

  20. Hi R. Yes it will be available later... I did NS wire ones for the Class C sides but to much fiddly work, so the A's will be brass etched, to be folded up and soldered! Eoin
  21. Hi decauville1126 I'll put you in the mix for a set, the chassis will be available soon, it still needs a bit of work to finalise, and it will be available as components as required, or ready to run I will pm you as soon as I check out postal cost for the sides to England Eoin
  22. Thanks StevieB Yes I can run off a set for you if you want, a set of 4 is €25.00.... they will need a slight clean up with sharp knife, a file and fibre brush Eoin
  23. Hi Here is a few photos of the finished loco with its new smoke box door n hook, which I forgot to post up at the time it was finished Eoin
  24. Hi While moulding the Class A bogie sides I made a mould to replace the damaged break shoes, here is a few shots..... This is a photo of the four castings and one of the original parts the mould was made from. Much easier than the A stuff cause its nice thick parts and the metal flows through the mould- even when the mould is cold! Eoin
  25. Hi All After a week of mould making and a bit of a compromise on pattern detail the Class A Bogie Sides started to appear, I'm still experiencing venting and chilling problems, but came up with a technique that gave 80% success- some of the detail is to fine for this kind of moulding without a centrifuge...
