Flying Snail

It looks well in Northport Quay. Lovely model - really eye catching, and its been an enjoyable build to follow

Its like chalk and cheese .. that last picture really does look like two different models. Lovely weathering!

That looks very good, nice detail in that print - FDM with a 0.2 nozzle looks like a viable alternative to resin printing

Few pics of it here in @Westcorkrailway's thread:

There is indeed a photo of 91 as a saddle tank in the GSR book!

I think he might pass for a member of Ireland's other police force at the time, the DMP: Dublin Metropolitan Police. However, as the name implies it wouldn't have had jurisdiction down the country in places like Northport Quay

I'm very much looking forward to seeing what nuggets you've unearthed! Enjoy the tour (that goes for everyone on here partaking too! )

Congratulations! Its an excellent layout!

Very nice indeed!

Do you know was it dark olive green instead of black, and saffron instead of tan .. or the other way round with the lighter colour on top?

Knock, Knock open wide, see what's on the other side, knock knock any more, come with me through the magic door ...

The Passion of Saint Tibulus is what came to mind for me ...

I’d be inclined to think that either arrangement could still result in the same basic flow of staff. Whether it was a balcony pay hatch or an internal desk/counter, you could still have a line forming up the steps on one side, with staff waiting their turn, and then exiting via the steps on the opposite side once they were finished. That kind of one-way circulation would make sense in either case and would help avoid blocking the queue. Just speculation my part as I haven't seen evidence of either.

this really brings out the beauty of the GNR architecture!

I'm very sorry for your loss. I hope you find comfort in your memories together and that brighter days will come again.
