    Excellent innovation BosKonay.

    I have thoroughly enjoyed the exchanges arising from this post - the wealth of knowledge is extraordinary including the witty observations. I have learned so much, especially from Jonathan. No doubt this map and topic will feature again as we inevitably muse on this complex subject. Thank you all. George

    Hi Folks, I picked this up in my Twitter Feed and feel it's worth sharing with the knowledgeable members of this forum. It builds upon the 1906 railway network map, assumes no closures and adds a variety of speculative/fantasy dimensions. For a wide variety of reasons, many of these lines would not have survived and/or not be built, but nonetheless it illustrates elements of what possibly might have been. The map can be expanded to read more easily when you click through the link. George https://theoditsek.files.wordpress.com/2020/02/ireland-crayon.png

    This is fabulous Paddy - very well done. I love your "railway room" - great pictures and excellent videos with the superimposed sounds - lots to learn from. George

    lovely modelling Jonathan - I particularly like the second picture from August 13th. George

    Great picture once again - now getting busy in the sky over Tara Junction, joining the Are Lingus 747 - a so much nicer livery than the rather anonymous current EI livery conforming to the corporate style of the wider IAG group.

    Lovely model - order already placed !
  8. Rush and Lusk
    I really like all the new initiatives - Congratulations BosKonay and all the IRM team

    Those ESB Anglia vans are delightful

    Great to see - nice video clip ttc0169 - moving at a fair pace there !

    Trains and cars - a glorious cocktail of youthful interests (irrespective of actual age !), of I suspect, quite a few on this forum - best of luck with this great project.

    Looks really attractive in that retro green livery - another "station" for a bite to eat for anyone even vaguely interested in trains - I wish the new owner well.
  13. Rush and Lusk
    Thanks John - an interesting and encouraging read. George

    Fabulous bus collection Noel - it does indeed look and feel like the quays around Bachelors Walk, Perhaps predictably, progress being impeded by the orange BMW ! - although it's quite a rare and collectable vehicle in "real life" - a BMW 2000i !
  15. Rush and Lusk
    Superb story-telling video, wonderful modelling and of course your outstanding layout - excellent Noel. George

    Hi, Just in case this is of interest to anyone, Hattons are offering Hornby SR green composite coaches for £16 compared to the RRP of £29.49. May be of value to someone.

    Beautiful Modelling Paddy - well done. George

    Excellent pictures jhb171achill. I regularly watch Mark on "Donegal Dad" and follow the great work though his output. I hope to visit this summer.

    Superbly detailed atmospheric modelling Patrick - congratulations. I spotted your placement of the "more sporty" or "premium" versions of cars - the cream/white & green striped Cortina - was the livery of the special "lotus" version, while the orange Austin 1300 (guessing here) has the sports wheels and special colour of the better versions. Lovely memories - (I also like older cars !). George

    Thank you "connollystn" for the compliment - much appreciated. Thanks also to Warbonnet, Galteemore, BosKonay, enniscorthyman and Rob. I note some temptation from WRENNEIRE ! - actually I bought a couple of perfect MM 181's from him recently, very pleased. Regards, George
  21. Rush and Lusk
    This lovely model arrived and is in situ in a typical disused siding setting - congratulations IRM on another excellent product.
  22. Rush and Lusk
    Tremendous changes taking place in the wider Barrow street are for almost two decades now - mostly for the better. Great recent pictures, and as for the traffic "log-jam" - amazing collection. Well done
  23. Rush and Lusk
    lovely story telling - that low level shot in the cutting is fabulous.
  24. Rush and Lusk
    Spot on John and jhb171achill - lovely enveloping natural feeling light and warm tones. You can see I used a very similar lighting approach in my recent diorama "IKEA shelf Diorama" in Layouts. In fairness this form of lighting is rather difficult to achieve for those with a larger fixed layout in a darker room or attic space.

    Hi trainboy, That's a great discovery, intact and so far from home - I wonder what the fare might have been from Howth Head or Sutton Cross to Perris Valley CA ? , I guess that's one for the actuarially smart folks with a knowledge of the local fare structure pertaining at the time, and the time value of money calculation, (not me )
