  1. 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
  2. Yup, both Mark’s Models and Rails of Sheffield have them to order. Stephen

    B101

    Let’s hope it can be restored to working, nice to hear a Sulzer in the midst of all the GM’s. Stephen
  4. 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
  5. Lovely photos but I’m not sure what you’ve actually done, or am I being just plain dim. Stephen
  6. 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
  7. Is the footbridge your handiwork or did you get it from ANOther? Either way, it looks the DB’s. Stephen
  8. I believe a certain Lt Col HF Stephens had something to do with it at one time. Stephen
  9. 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
  10. The BR generator vans were converted from BSK and BCK. Stephen
  11. They make up into fine models. What underframes have you used. Are they part of the body kit or do you have to source them separately. Stephen
  12. I assume that the one preserved at Cultra is the GSR predecessor. Stephen
  13. As one of those with a superb interest in Irish railways, I have noticed that the Accurascale website is not so easy to navigate when searching for Irish models compared to the old IRM website. Stephen
  14. An understatement if ever I’ve heard one. Stephen
  15. Rosslare Harbour would make an interesting model. Anyone ever tried it? Stephen
  16. 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
  17. No drivers in NI? Can’t IE drivers be passed for operation in NI? Just a thought. Stephen
  18. My purchase arrived earlier this week, love the Accurascale packing as opposed to the IRM packaging. Stephen
  19. Are you sure about the second freight terminating at Bantry, wasn’t it Drimoleague? Stephen
  20. 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
  21. I knew that Silver Fix did the 600 and 700 class railcars but not the 900. That explains it. Nice one. Stephen
  22. Are the U and UG going to be for sale or will you be keeping them? Stephen
  23. StevieB

    Irm wagons

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