    The triple track west of Waterford was originally two tracks towards Limerick Junction and one towards Dublin. In later years there were three single lines towards Dublin, Limerick Junction and Mallow. The latter period would have been a lovely one to model to just watch trains go by. Stephen

    A nice piece of fiction but very convincing. Stephen

    So sorry to hear the news. I’ve suffered flooding but fire is a different thing altogether. It takes no prisoners but at least you and yours are ok. Stephen

    A lovely tribute, Leslie. Stephen

    I haven’t seen any mention of the scale. Whatever it is, the whole scene is quite delightful. What about North Wall (MGWR)? Stephen

    Where can we get new number transfers, I have two class 141’s looking for new numbers? Stephen

    The 7mm J18 is currently not shown on the Alphagrafix website. Interesting. Stephen

    Surely it’s a mk3 EGV. Stephen

    It is an incredible resource which I frequently delve into. Stephen

    What is more likely is that he does it for a living, lucky chap. Stephen

    Wasn’t the use rail transport a condition of the original planning permission! What has changed apart from the current unavailability of rail transport due to ongoing works in the port of Dublin? Stephen

    The tender is wrong, should be the same as on the N. Maybe Rapido will donthis version at a later date. Also, the K1a appears to be more an Irish N with 6’ 0” drivers rather than an Irish U. Strange. Stephen

    They’ve also announced the Southern U class 2-6-0, which has the potential for a GSR K1a version. Unfortunately, the tender is wrong, the N/K1 is correct. Stephen

    Yup, both Mark’s Models and Rails of Sheffield have them to order. Stephen

    Let’s hope it can be restored to working, nice to hear a Sulzer in the midst of all the GM’s. Stephen

    Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t there a second 4-8-0t, no 901, while 900 ran as a 4-6-2t for a while by disconnecting the back pair of driving wheels. Their primary role was banking heavy freight trains up the long bank from Kingsbridge, as it was then, to Inchicore. Stephen

    Lovely photos but I’m not sure what you’ve actually done, or am I being just plain dim. Stephen

    I’m not sure that the Cravens were ever wired for working with railcars. That was the original planet but it never seemed to happen. Stephen

    Is the footbridge your handiwork or did you get it from ANOther? Either way, it looks the DB’s. Stephen

    I believe a certain Lt Col HF Stephens had something to do with it at one time. Stephen

    I believe I read recently that the RHDR needs to spend a considerable sum of money to ensure its long term future. It is truly a mainline in miniature. Stephen

    The BR generator vans were converted from BSK and BCK. Stephen
