  1. 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.
  2. Those are some fine photographs TDR thanks for posting.
  3. That Peckett 0-4-0 looks rather interesting and a reasonable price.
  4. 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!!
  5. 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!
  6. 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.
  7. And me please Des
  8. Beautiful loco,to exhibition standard, I have severe loco envy! Enjoy, as I"m sure you will.
  9. Thanks for posting Eiretrains now I have a real reason for Brown vans on CIE! that site is quite a find.
  10. A production line or what! but what a time saving by only cleaning the air brush once, keep "em coming!
  11. Well done guys the detail is brilliant. For me the tide line on the beach makes the scene. Thanks for sharing.
  12. Flares,roll neck pullovers and cars that you have not seen in decades!
  13. Great photographs, really good colour balance thank you for sharing. Cultra is on my bucket list!
  14. That is right over my head! vowed never to tweet after Steven Fry announced he had a huge following. better things to do.

    Trying

    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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. I found several photos of Bord na Mona workers and trains carrying peat in my copy of"Father Brown"s trains and Railways" by E.E.O"Donnell. I liked the photos because many of them show people and train crew just going about their business. Some of which I find very moving every time I look at them. Riversuir 226; they are an easy project and I can almost guarantee you will not look at a six-wheel coach in the same light again!
  19. Excellent work and totally agree with UP6936. Hope I get to see the layout one day at an exhibition. Either side of the Irish Sea !
  20. Good news that Michael is on the mend.
  21. Good stuff David, you will be needing an extention? to run all these lovely creations on !!
  22. The first shot is rather good C25 picking its way through the weeds.
  23. Its Ace, Keep those pictures coming Pat:tumbsup:rick. If the moderators wish to move my hijack post; fine with me. Mike
  24. oops
  25. Sorry to hijack the thread Patrick, yes my B2a is based on a bachman B1 bought off flea bay well It is the worst running of my split frame locos and I had been doctoring it up and got better running but for some odd reason the rear driver sometimes climb the rail and she took a dive! there may be a picture here.
