Watched it last night, brilliant its back to the past of the first three. Was it really 1977 when it was released?

In the UK "fitted" meant working vacuum brakes so would have the rubber "bags" on each end, piped was just a steel pipe running under the wagon with the rubber "bags" on each end. It just made a connection for the vacuum. Never knew why the rubber pipes were called bags!

Congratulations FL they are top drawer

Your vans look rather good flange lubricator, I did my solitary one by cross kitting with a BR plywood side van and finished with a H van as well. I did not do the X braced ends far to much carving off for me!

JHB check out Cheltenham Model Center website CL 55 were £39.99 brand new & they were in stock last week
-
Those are really nice castings David, I can see £90 because how many sets will he sell in a year? But you are really raising the bar with this one.

I think I would have liked to see a set being transfered down the street at Waterford. I wonder if my mental picture was the reality.

CIE Regulations for Train Signalling ( any pre 1985 approx)

Keep an eye on this guy; JTPEND. //stores.ebay.co.uk/jtpend. I very recently bought a 1933 GSWR rule book for £9. I was surprised! But he seems to specialise in WTTS and General appendix etc. -
Those are some fine photographs TDR thanks for posting.

That Peckett 0-4-0 looks rather interesting and a reasonable price.

Horse, there is a sideview of cls E No 110 Bat in Ernie Shepherd"s Midland Great Western of Ireland page 128. Lucky man wish I had seen that kit!! -
I have just bought/won a 1933 Great Southern Railway Rule Book. It is little different from my BR one of the 1960"s! But it was issued to Driver J Canty at Rocksavage Cork in 1933 and he seems t have retained it till 1958, amazing!But under all the aeons of dirt on the covers it seems to be a blue green in colour. I also found a 1935 Tourist and Excursion Fares timetable, fascinating reading and as it states in one add; Pleasure without Restriction! theres a thing!

Went to the Spalding show on Sunday as a venue it gets better every year so its more crowded every year! But if its of interest to you diesel purchaser"s Cheltenham Model Centre were selling Hornby Railroad Deltics DCC ready and brand new £39.99p I believe thats £10 cheaper than Hattons. Yes I bought one, if I had the cash for two then two I would now possess but he could not get a signal for his cc machine but this is unwired Lincolnshire. C.M.C phone no.01242 523117 & 234644.

Thanks for posting Eiretrains now I have a real reason for Brown vans on CIE! that site is quite a find.

A production line or what! but what a time saving by only cleaning the air brush once, keep "em coming!

Well done guys the detail is brilliant. For me the tide line on the beach makes the scene. Thanks for sharing.

Flares,roll neck pullovers and cars that you have not seen in decades!

Great photographs, really good colour balance thank you for sharing. Cultra is on my bucket list! -
That is right over my head! vowed never to tweet after Steven Fry announced he had a huge following. better things to do.
-
That is a good looking build, very clean and tidy. An etch-primer is a very good idea but try to keep it off any resin parts as I am not sure about a chemical reaction.
-
Unless you want or do collect that sort of thing it seems a lot of money. But the condition looks good except for that one coach with no bogies.

Good work David, your work has reminded me I have a stash of nickle silver sheet that should be turned into something good before it crumbles to dust! Thats how long I have had it.
