Auto-Train Original

The main purpose of the Metro is to bring Swords and heavily populated parts of Fingal a railway. The airport part is secondary.

Pry the sides off using credit cards or similar.

That is incredible. Had no idea these ran in Ireland. What railway and colour scheme?

Thanks for that, but I also seem to have another memory of a different painted loco in the Dublin docks in the 80s?

Didn't ESSO or BP have their own rail system in the Dublin docks? I seem to recall a branded loco shunting oil wagons near Alexandria Road when I was a kid.

I am having a hard time sourcing clear material for coach and other glazing. It is either too thick. Too small in sheet size, or too expensive. Is anyone aware of anything I could obtain? Even some clear food boxes in Ireland? Thanks

Sick of these model train 'inflencer' types. Frustrated Blue Peter presenters.

In the end I bit the bullet and went for the 'fake it till fake it' option. I replaced the bogies with some Jouef HO TPO ones and they run very well and suit the short length. I know nothing like them ran on Irish rails but they do look the biz going round the layout. The coach on the end is an old Triang celestory with a new roof. This all cost me literally a few euros on top of a raid of the scrap pile so bearing that in mind I'm happy.

this is excellent thank you.

I have a huge collection of model railways magazines going back years. Not only do I find Irish related stuff, but also great ideas for layouts and so on. Am I allowed to post these articles here or is there copyright issues?

Is this available?

OK, even I can see that some things are off. But is there anything to be said for using this program for something like this? Did it get anything correct? Prompt: "based on these photos and stats can you generate a OO Gauge/4mm scale drawing with dimensions in mm" RESULTS (2)

The island of Great Britain is not the 'mainland' to Ireland. The European continent is the mainland for the islands of Great Britain and Ireland. Please stop referring to the 'mainland' when speaking about Ireland in this context. It is patronising and fairly offensive, to be honest. Be like calling the UK 'West France '.

Everything about this line is very odd I must say. Feels more like solving a puzzle than watching a line relay.

what is the railway purpose of a emergency generator room and why would they need three?
