Yes, this turned up here as well. On Thursday is the London monthly evening lecture, and it's covering Irish signalling practice, aspects of which have been something of a mystery.....

The possibility of a RTR 20ft wagon chassis?
Horsetan replied to leslie10646's topic in General Chat
That's actually not too terrible. There would be a facility to go 21mm gauge as well, with care. -
That's just showing off.

A4 mallard Model in OO for £2.99 !
Horsetan replied to BosKonay's topic in British Outline Modelling
See second post on this thread....then read the rest of it! The chassis obviously is fixed / static only, but they've even copied the flangeless trailing truck wheels, whilst the brake rigging is pretty much a straight copy of the Hornby one. -

Apparently it's a knock-off of the Hornby (China) model. -

If you're mad enough, you could put a proper chassis under some of those...... -

If they are "OO", then they'd be the first Continental "OO" to be produced since the days of Kitmaster in the '50s and '60s. Normally everything Euro-Continental is "HO" scale.

....and how many of us have?

The J15s were at their best with the "Z"-type boiler and Belpaire....

I was thinking more along these lines:

It's the same old story of "Love the idea, but someone else can pay for it."

Glad to have been of service....

I think Cambrian Models might have something suitable: Click here - see ref. C34 and C35.....

In the days when I was in Dublin, many of the buses carried the destination "As Serbhis". I often wondered where it was....
-
John: will you be collaborating with Des over that "Z"-type boiler for the SSM J15? I'd be keen to have a go at the kit (subject to funds, obviously) if the "Z" option was in it.

There is a lot to be said for batch building.

The things ye learn every day, Leslie...

That would ensure RTE wouldn't have to fork out for the EuroSong the year after.

That's precisely the point. People often moan that more should have been done to preserve more Irish steam, but where's the money and commitment? People had other priorities.

Quite sobering to think that the underframe and bogies were still knocking around the back of Inchicore in the mid-70s. Heritage protection doesn't seem to have been a strong point of CIE, unless it was by accident!
