  1. You may have been there the weekend it rained, leading to the canvas tent roof collapsing and dumping quite a decent amount of rainwater onto a trade stand....
  2. One PO/Heuston van kit, please
  3. Thing with Templot is that places like Claremorris and Macmine Junction suddenly become possible....
  4. "The name's Rae. Healy-Rae...."
  5. It wouldn't be Chatham without some sort of rain.
  6. "rpsisales", I think
  7. Just after acquiring this from the RPSI's eBay shop. Not a bargain, but not a rip-off either. 21mm gauge beckons...
  8. To think that this thing led indirectly to the Pacers......
  9. That, there, is just another indication of our feral society.
  10. For the engines that were supplied to the GNRI by Beyer-Peacock, you do get the full works, but the trouble is that you have to know where to find them - The Manchester Museum of Science and Industry has them, but they are no longer accessible online after yet another reorganisation. Access to the Great Central Railway locomotive diagrams has also been lost.
  11. One regular characteristic of these GNR diagrams is that you only get the side-view measurements only - no end-on, or plan views.
  12. More than anyone is prepared to pay, it would seem. Come back in 10 years' time and see if they're still there.
  13. In that case, Killian, would you consider printing a full 400-class tender for me?
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.....
  17. 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.
  18. It was ever thus. That's why general neglect and dereliction is still a common sight in Ireland
  19. Same here, please

    Cement Bubbles

    I've had the e-mail about it already!
  21. Equivocation is practically a national sport.
  22. There wasn't much money around even when property prices were reasonable (or unrealistically cheap by British standards) in the 1980s
