    Did you find what you wanted in the end?
  2. Horsetan
    More than anyone is prepared to pay, it would seem. Come back in 10 years' time and see if they're still there.
  3. Horsetan
    In that case, Killian, would you consider printing a full 400-class tender for me?
  4. Horsetan
    It's a 3345-gallon tender which appears to be a very close resemblance to the type attached to 400/500 class. The RPSI do mention that they think it might be a 400-class tender; there don't seem to be any other types that fit the description.
  5. Horsetan
    Whilst we're on the subject of the 400 3D-print, would it be possible to order just the tender on its own? Reason for asking is that I'd like one to be attached to my build of J15 no.186 to portray her preserved state.
  6. Horsetan
    It's not just the 400s, but also the 500 class 4-6-0s which maybe one day should also be considered for modelling - in some ways more versatile than the 400s, but there were only three.....

    The J17 wheelbase was something like 9' x 9', which almost gives the GNRI "V" and VS's 10'6" wheelbase a run for their money. That said, the J17 ultimately wasn't the biggest as the J19 and J20 were even more substantial.

    It was ever thus. That's why general neglect and dereliction is still a common sight in Ireland

    Same here, please

    I've had the e-mail about it already!

    Equivocation is practically a national sport.

    There wasn't much money around even when property prices were reasonable (or unrealistically cheap by British standards) in the 1980s

    Presumably everything runs punctually?
  15. Horsetan
    This must be on the single-line Dungeness section. Presumably the service is less intensive than for the rest of the line!
  16. Horsetan
    Same here. One of each if they're being made available.
  17. Horsetan
    Just after paying the bill for this new trio....

    The Irish public will generally only get involved if someone else is paying for it. It was ever thus - just look at all the various proposals for building Irish branch lines; the mere mention of having to fork out for it was enough to see interest melt away from most.... I'd say the more immediate concern is a reliable source of fuel for all the steam locomotive fleet, as eco-mental concerns have deliberately made domestic coal unavailable. Current experiments with eco fuels suggest miniature and narrow gauge engines can run (expensively) on it, but standard gauge not so much...

    If you're happy to work with P4 standards, then all relevant trackmaking gauges for Irish 21mm are available from Scalefour Society Stores. Code 82 FB is currently available from S4 Stores, the EMGS Stores, and C&L. Code 75 FB is only produced by PECO; I haven't seen anyone else offer it.
  20. Horsetan
    There's the PlugTrack function as well, so you could print your own 21mm if you're not too fussed about having the correct 1-in-20 rail inclination
  21. Horsetan
    Hopefully that means used Hornby 50s will be flogged cheap on eBay - I need a spares donor for my pair of P4 conversions
  22. Horsetan
    Amazingly, they had a couple of packs of ballast hoppers, so I bought one, having missed out on the original release.....
  23. Horsetan
    Still no secrets

    Garda Siochana seem unable to keep hold of it, underfunded and understaffed as they are. Meanwhile, over in Turd World Britain, 'tis Feral Central here....!

    The best thing the Euromillions rollover winner could do is emigrate, mostly for his or her own safety. When Dolores Macnamara won £115m (a record sum at the time), not only was her name leaked incredibly quickly, but credible threats were made to kidnap her son in the hope of extracting a large slice of the win. There's no secrets in Ireland, except maybe where crimes have been committed. Also, we've always had a noticeable feral element in society - never more so than now.
