  1. Colin Massingham, of whom it was said that he was a stranger to engineering drawings, preferring instead to guesstimate by eye - see his early Steamcast kits for various BR Standard engines. The Elcrappo brand also covered his 7mm standard gauge kits.
  2. Sharman wheels on this one. Again quite distinctive.
  3. Aren't the Bachmann / Murphy mounting points supposed to be a bit different to the IRM ones? Not sure a direct swap is possible.
  4. The very last one might have been the bid too far....
  5. The leading bidder is either really desperate to own this one, or is leading everyone up the garden path by putting in repeated joke bids.
  6. I see someone on Farcebook already flogging two NIR Mk2bs from Pack 2 for 130 Euros!
  7. He must have felt Eiffel.
  8. ....and to think there were just a few months left for the West Clare.
  9. Nope. As I have a trio of Murphy RPSI Mk2s here, will be interesting to compare the IRM bogie and mounting design with that of Murphy.
  10. I'm just after getting a flashback to this:
  11. My set hasn't arrived yet. Is listed as having shipped, though....
  12. Out of sight, out of mind.
  13. Very occasionally these reappear on eBay. Values fortunately not high because minority interest.
  14. Society has become a lot more feral since then. Now they're burning down any buildings suspected to be for asylum seeker / refugee accommodation.
  15. What is IR's current inspection vehicle - the one that looks like a flying Portacabin?
  16. Presumably this isn't duplicating any of Richard's extensive drawings work at the IRRS?
  17. Nothing has changed there in the last 20 years....
  18. If they could tap the guff coming out of Daíl Eireann, I'd say they'd have an inexhaustible supply of wind.
  19. Ultrascale wheels on this one - they're very distinctive.
  20. All helping to make your buildings more, er, contemporary....
  21. I'm just after putting in an online order for the RPSI trio set. Paid by PayPal. Hope there's enough left....
  22. For extra authenticity, you'd need some of the modern buildings to show signs of mica damage....
  23. I went in 2000. It was the first and only time I ever attended. There were so many people that the only thing I can compare the crowds with is Bombay's main railway station at rush hour. Teeming humanity, and all too human smells. Never dared go back after that.
