Clogherhead - A GNR(I) Seaside Terminus
derek replied to Patrick Davey's topic in Irish Model Layouts
Sheesh! I have a vague idea what my new station is going to look like, and it aint anything like that beauty. I need to buck up my ideas -
Hell! Imagine cutting something for free. Where would the poor ol chippies be with that carry on.
-
What Denis!!!!???? Are you crazy, ripping up an old part of your layout, just to start over. ?? ...... Oh no, wait.........
-
Dunno about brave. Nuts might describe it better

Hi Leslie. I would like to make an expression of interest for at least 3 of the broken wheels (if I haven,t done so already) I would also be interested in a brake van if you do one, even if it is kit form. Just getting my say in
-
Leslie, that wagon looks fantastic. Just wondering if you will be producing one with CIE roundel? (as previously mentioned, I think?). And if so, what kind of timescale would we be looking at? Ball park will do- no pressure.
-
Site cleared.( Finally) Track ordered from Marks Models, so it should be all go now for a while. Hopefully...........
-
Oh, something I discovered while trying to work out what track I will need for the new part of the old layout. The radii on Hornby track is anything but accurate. 438mm turned out to be closer to 447mm. 505 is actually 514mm. No wonder my old layout was all over the place. That and my approach of " drop the track on the board, connect them and you are good to go", didnt help. I know most (if not all) on here, probably use Peco track, but just a word to the wise if any newbies go with the ol Hornby.
-
Super.
-
EGGSactly! And now its time to SHELL out for some new track and CRACK on with the layout.
-
Oh yes, I see that now. It would have been a fair sized blade in fairness
-
Lovely Denis. The viaduct looks great. Didn,t realise you had such a long running area. ( Didn,t pick that up from your previous posts). Is it continuous, all the way around the room, or does it come to a stop somewhere?. Also, I spy a hacksaw blade on the shelf. My favourite bit of gear for destruction and construction alike
-
Thanks. Each time I see it now I will just think, "Brophy"
-
Yeah, I suppose we will have to beat the best teams along the way if we want to win the thing out, regardless of when we meet them.
-
Broithe, how do you pronounce your user name? Is it B ROAD EH or B RIDD EH? Each time I read it I read it differently. I know, overthinking things. I just need to get it straight in my head.
-
Denis, where did you get the "bus scoile"?. Off the shelf or did you have to do a bit of tinkering? Oh and I notice the layout title is still the same. Personally I see nothing wrong with Joehill Junction.
-
South Africa was a totaly different animal last night, but we got through okay. And the lineouts were atrocious earlier on. The lads got it sorted though. Great win. Aki is on fire. Just a word of caution though, I wonder would be better facing France in the quarters than All Blacks. Those New Zealand lads dont go away easily. They are always there at the business end of things. Hope I am wrong, but I am fearful.
-
Yes, unfortunately, thats the way of it.............
-
Beautiful wagons Noel
-
Oh my God!!!!! What have I done.? It better be worth it ............ From this... To this.........
-
Especially this year. Total washout
-
Yes, if only our Winters were longer, and not only eleven and a half months . Think of what we could get done if not for the pesky gardens.. Good to see you back at it Denis
-
Murph, where did your tread on the Rugby World Cuo go?. Or did I dream of that during a covid induced delerium?
