What underframe did you put under the fitted H van, a reworked PW one or another?
-
Where’s the spreader from, please? Stephen

Lovely stuff. Just out of interest, what was 152 doing parked in the sidings at Warrenpoint? Stephen
-
Some more lovely stuff here. Stephen

I suppose a run of dolomite hoppers is next! Stephen

Some lovely stuff there. Stephen -
Ernies Massive Irish 1930's to 2005 Photo Archive
StevieB replied to Glenderg's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
Correct me if I’m wrong but 26595 is a former magnesite wagon. There is a picture on this forum of one converted into a hopper wagon. I think it was at Ballinacourty, so presumably it was used for the transport of dolomite. Stephen -

The Triang/Hornby L1 4-4-0 is similar to many Irish 4-4-0’s. Stephen -

Meaning no disrespect to anyone working in the rail industry, the UK government went to the wrong people for an overview of a fixed link between GB and NI. They should have gone to the oil and gas industry, which has bucketloads of experience of building deep water structures. Stephen

£ I also have a Silverfox C but look forward to IRM producing one in the not too distant future. Stephen

They are Tommy Brady’s Irish Freight Models. Stephen

Many years ago modelling friends used a technique called drying brushing to achieve a realistic weathered appearance. Stephen

The latest additions to my fleet of Irish wagons.

Look forward to it. Stephen

I would concur with Iain Rice approach of 25 grams per axle plus brass axle bearings. Operation will be so much better when everything is to a common standard. Stephen

As Mr Punch would say ‘that’s the way to do it’. The long established manufacturers in the UK all have long leadtimes, very often with little idea of actual dates. Keep up the excellent work. Stephen

Irish Railway Models A Class Re-wheeled to 21mm
StevieB replied to JohnMcGahern's topic in Irish Models
The track looks the part. Stephen -
The damage must have proved terminal as the 165DS no longer exists. That’s a great shame as it was a small but impressive machine, which would have proved very useful to the likes of the D&CDR. Stephen
-
And you have to pay the exorbitant postage on top! Stephen
-
We have all come to expect good customer service. Now I don’t know if DC kits is a one man band but that might explain the poor customer service referred to, and we have just had the Christmas and New Year break. Stephen

The Bug started life on the RHDR, was sold to a concern in Ireland and then, more recently, returned to the RHDR. Stephen
-
I’m gradually fitting Kadees to my stock. They work so well and are the way forward as far as I’m concerned. Stephen

I’ve had a copy for many years. It’s an absolutely lovely album stuffed full of evocative photos of all aspects of Irish railway operations. Stephen
