An excellent job, many congratulations for what you have achieved.
-
UTA U2 on Goods Duties. You can also see another U2 Locomotive, a Jinty and 2 AEC Railcars.
-
Delightful film clip showing a different pace of life back then. Great to see Wagons been loaded and how it was done. Many thanks for posting.
-
Thanks Tony, my knowledge of buses is nil so that's very helpful.. I'm still on the hunt for the CIE Buses in Red and White livery, I know Jim Poots did some many years ago before I had an interest in this hobby but none are available now.
-
Would CIE have had Royal Tiger Coaches in their fleet, I'm thinking of a respray?
-
Mmm.. David I think I'll have to read this a few times to get my head round it
-
Excellent picture Noel, the light brings a 'real' look to it.
-
Excellent taster David, looking forward to seeing how it's done.
-
McCullough's used to have a top floor devoted to model railways, now it just a shelf or two and that's diminishing.
-
McCullough's of Bangor are selling 071's for £109.00 each. Numbers include 071, 073, 078, 082, 086a & 088.

Nice to see your Fueling Point Noel, a rarely modeled but essential part of any railway scene. The new layout is developing well.
-
Trust you had a good holiday Raymond and you are refreshed to tackle your signals project. Looking forward to seeing them in action, great work!
-
Andy you have a nice collection of Corporation Buses and the depot sets them off really well. Looking forward to seeing this part finished. You must be getting near the end?
-
I would go with Des's suggestion, I used some from the Wizard 5L range as they are easy to cut up. http://www.wizardmodels.co.uk/FrameSetShop.php?DM=wizabout I'll PM you re photographs

AEC Railcars. I had completed a Worsley Works Kit for the GNR Railcar and added an SSM K15 coach to make up a 3 Car Set a month ago but whenever I set the coach on the rails it shorted. I tried everything I could but it was not until Colm Flanagan suggested changing the wheel sets did I resolve the problem. Now all is running well round Kirley Junction. There is a second AEC Railcar in this video in UTA livery supplied by Silver Fox.

CIE Mk II Supertrain. Resprayed the Murphy Model coaches and gave them their first run today. 023 and 088 doing the honours. Still haven't managed recording and using the controller at the same time, please excuse the camera jumping about.
-
The decals supplied with the recent Murphy Models MkII Supertrain coaches show (I think) 'No Smoking' signs and Catering signs, see sample below. Two questions: 1. Were 'No Smoking' signs in use in 1972-3 when the Supertrain coaches were launched? 2. Where on Dinner 5403 are the 'Network Catering' signs located?
-
Colour difference. I got some Mk II Supertrain coaches sometime ago but have never ran them. Finally got around to blowing some CIE Golden Brown paint over them. A couple of pictures to show the colour variation.
-
One in found in my collection, unfortunately I don't know when other than in the IR era.
-
Reminds me of my Grandparents house in Co. Sligo. Now there's an idea!
-
AEC Railcars. A 3 car set comprising of 2 AEC Powercars and a K15 coach in GNR livery. They are built from brass kits, AEC from Worsley Works and the K15 coach from SSM. An evening stop at Kirley Junction.
-
Built to last Raymond, they are 'sturdy yokes' alright. They look very impressive even in this raw stage.
-
Looking forward to seeing the finished building, what roof covering are you planning?
-
A SSM Bredin Parcel/Brake coach just after getting the new CIE Black & Tan livery along with a rake of mixed coaches. Plus 2 Provincial Wagon kits, GNR Coal Wagons.
