If you were going to produce more ballast wagons in CIE Era , could you do a run of Gypsum wagons at the same time ?
-
Have not ordered any vans yet as I was holding out in the hope of the CIE ones appearing.

Yes Leslie , mine is a well worn copy at this stage of its life but invaluable all the same .

Yes Mayner and reading your contribution I was reminded of the awful smell that once emanated from that factory which would hang about the place on a regular basis . Great modelling

Any update on these Weshty ?

This was something that particular to CIE coaches of the period compared to their British cousins nice detail

Noel, very interested in the TPO project , I think they had the mail catching gear until the late sixties here's another gem from the O'Dea collection from 1967 which show's the TPO forth coach from the loco with the apparatus still attached also interesting is the coach behind the loco some old GSWR coach with whats looks like the windows painted /covered over and possibly being used as van?. http://catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000306219

I think the 42' wagons are LP's and the 47'6" are LX or Modified LX. Explained in this post by people a lot more knowledgeable than me

Found a nice picture from the O'Dea collection from April 1971 of some new 42'wagons on trial hauled by A3R. http://catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000307793

I have been toying with the idea of using Shawplan EECD4006 Mk3 Sleeper coach window frames and putting grilles into them.

Your dimensions look spot on that's why I asked you must have a very keen eye , some models I have seen they look a little too high many thanks for your help I will work with 5.5mm.

Great work on the gen van currently I'm trying to convert a Silver Fox Dutch Van to an EGV do you have the dimensions of the added headstock's .

Away at the moment but will post a pic when i get home

I received a box from shapeways yesterday containing 42ft LP wagons very impressed with them.

Here's a link to one http://briansolomon.com/trackingthelight/tag/elusive-train/

As far as I am aware the highlighted numbers were hand painted and this is now done by stencil, transfers , interestingly enough you mention 202 which was involved in mishap with 182 about 1998 /99 this coincided with the restoration of saloon 351 and some of the retired painters were involved in this project and were working on 351 at about the time 202 was being repaired , so possibly they did the highlighted numbers on 202 ????

Eiretrains I remember a wonderful picture in the IRRS journal from 1971 of B206 hauling the B&I liner up the Gullet with the Rowntree mackintosh factory in the background .

30091-30098 were built with steel floors and stanchion's for carrying steel traffic .

Yes Noel , I think thats an 'R' beside a number , these wagons were introduced about 1971 the A class re engine program was in full swing at this stage , in the background you can see Bullied open wagons and to the right a 20T Guards Van , out with the old and in with the new .
