  1. Some pictures of my childhood (well -teenage years) layout - now long gone. Cheers Darius
  2. Can anyone identify where in Belfast our house was? Cheers Darius PS it’s still there…
  3. Found some photos that I took when the bungalow model was first completed. These will come in useful for the refurb. Also some pics of a model that I made of our family home in Belfast a year or so after I made the bungalow model. Cheers Darius
  4. For the TPE coaches you need a Dapol TPE Class 68. Other retailers are available… Cheers Darius
  5. One completed - a few more to go… Cheers Darius
  6. 3D printed JGA wagon kit from 3DWagonWorks via eBay. I added some details using brass wire, tube and electrical wire. These are very nice kits with excellent detail. The material is easy to work with. Cheers Darius
  7. One-plank wagons completed. Cheers Darius
  8. Another Cambrian kit assembled… Cheers Darius
  9. Dunpaintin… Cheers Darius
  10. Bachmann issue them as a pack of three. Cheers Darius
  11. Couple of Cambrian LMS 5-plank kits built up… I think the brake levers will need to be moved upwards to avoid clashing with the door bangers. Cheers Darius
  12. Initial repairs completed. Some bits are missing so will need to be re-done. Cheers Darius
  13. This is a model of my Grandparents’ bungalow in Seaford, East Sussex* that I made in the early 1980s - over 40 years ago. I scratch built it using 1mm plywood, Perspex sheet, cardboard, paint and sawdust. Time has not been good to it so my latest project is to repair and refurbish it. Sone parts are missing so these will need to be rebuilt. Cheers Darius * Not to be confused with Seaforde Co. Down.
  14. In have been wondering whether BR type Conflat wagons operated in Ireland or did the older style containers just get placed on regular flat wagons? If they did it would be nice to model one. Cheers Darius
  15. Superb modelling!!! Cheers Darius
  16. Absolutely superb models. Cheers Darius
  17. And to pull them along… Cheers Darius
  18. A big box has just been delivered containing these. The destination panels are provided separately for northbound and southbound trains. I secured them in place with small dabs of pva to enable future removal/swapping if required. Quite superb models - by far the best coach models that I have ever seen. Cheers Darius
  19. She doesn’t look best pleased in the photo above. Haven’t watched the vid so can’t say if her demeanour improves… Cheers Darius
  20. Look, the money was just resting in my account… Cheers Darius
  21. Second portal completed. Cheers Darius
  22. Dummy tunnel lining fitted. Cheers Darius
  23. Wing walls constructed, painted and weathered along with the tunnel portal. Wing walls attached. Cheers Darius
  24. HO gauge tunnel portal modified to provide a bit more room at the base. Cheers Darius
