Rosslare Harbour would make an interesting model. Anyone ever tried it? Stephen

Learning when and how to slow down is not that easy but do try for everyone’s sake. What’s the saying, you’re a long time dead! Best wishes. Stephen

No drivers in NI? Can’t IE drivers be passed for operation in NI? Just a thought. Stephen

My purchase arrived earlier this week, love the Accurascale packing as opposed to the IRM packaging. Stephen

Are you sure about the second freight terminating at Bantry, wasn’t it Drimoleague? Stephen

Two possible sources of coach for conversion are the old Graham Farish corridor third and the Hornby Maunsell low window corridor third. The former is much cheaper but the tops of the corridor windows needs lowering. Stephen

I knew that Silver Fix did the 600 and 700 class railcars but not the 900. That explains it. Nice one. Stephen

Are the U and UG going to be for sale or will you be keeping them? Stephen

The ebay price is some 60% greater than the IRM price, say no more. Stephen

Totally agree with you. Stephen

It has always baffled me how differently countries tackle the same problem, whether on our roads or railways. Propelling trains is a no no over in the UK, whereas it is par for the course in Ireland. Stephen

I have three Murphy Models GM’s for sale, namely 088 in as delivered livery, namely GM’s interpretation of CIE’s super train livery, and B165 in Black and Tan livery, two examples. They come complete with boxes and all the add on accessories. I am looking for £200 for 088 and £150 for each of B165, a 5% discount for purchasing two or a 10% discount for purchasing all three. 088 sold

Both EM and 21mm are very much minority scales so a society taking the financial risk of providing RTR track is surely the only way forward. Stephen

I prefer to keep the track at 21mm and make the standards fit that. Anything else means you aren’t modelling 5’ 3”. I like the OO gauge standards. Stephen

I think that we’re missing a trick here in that RTR EM gauge track, both plain and points, is already available from Peco, albeit via the EM gauge society only. Is there a case for a 21mm gauge society, TOM gauge for short, offering both finescale and P4 standards, to do the same? Stephen
