  1. It just gets better with every posting. Stephen
  2. Says it’s withdrawn. Stephen
  3. The October issue of HORNBY magazine has a review of the new 00 Works 0-6-0ST in its Southern format. It will be out in its Great Southern format later this year. It looks all very nice. Stephen
  4. What a state to get into, just like in the UK. Stephen
  5. Yup, BELL liner trains between Cork and Waterford were timetabled to run from Limerick Junction to Waterford on the former WLWR main line. Stephen
  6. I’ve never directly answered the question ‘is the glass half full or half empty?’, preferring the engineering answer ‘it’s twice as big as it needs to be’. Stephen
  7. At first I thought this was the real thing, not a model. Artistry and good photography can deceive the eye. Well done. Stephen
  8. Patrick You’ve captured the feel of a country railway in South Waterford, but change a few details and it could be anywhere in these islands. Have you got room to run dolomite trains from Lombardstown and oil and magnesite Trains to/from Cork? Stephen
  9. I find a good representation of the latter day tank wagons is the Dapol tank body from their class B kit mounted on the Dapol 12’ 0” underframe. Stephen
  10. The spray coach was converted from one of the BGSV’s which was originally a BR BSK, whereas the RPSI BGSV started life as a BR BCK. Any chance of a second version of the spray tanks in their original form on 20’ 0” flats? Stephen
  11. I think what you are referring to is the original alignment of the Cork and Youghal Railway, which terminate adjacent to, but at a higher level than, Glanmire Road station, now Kent station. Stephen
  12. Hi As far as I was aware, the only 47’ container flat was the one produced by IFM. Have you managed to source another supply? Stephen
  13. Thanks for that. If you Google Ballyconnell Road and select images, you’ll find some absolutely wonderful photos. Stephen
  14. I’m not quite sure where you mean to see Mick Rawlings handiwork. I saw Ballyconnell Road at Railwells the other year. To be honest, nothing else came close to it for me. Stephen
  15. How very devious, but also practical, to take the track through the side wall of the station where it can’t be seen. Stephem
  16. It has the potential to provide valuable extra business for the railway, assuming no-one improves the roads, Stephen
  17. I stand corrected. Many thanks. Stephen
  18. There’s a guy selling MM171 on eBay, who says it’s a special done exclusively for Marks Models. Really? Stephen
  19. Wow, looks very impressive. Stephen
  20. I think all postal vans across these islands were the same. It was a security thing. Stephen
  21. Wow is all I can say. Stephen
  22. Wow indeed. All we need now is the turf burner. Stephen
  23. John All looks very good. How does this fit in with the Rank wagon and six plank open you recently announced? Are you planning a range of both rtr and kit wagons? Stephen
  24. Andy A lovely piece of modelling. I hope we may see it at the Cheltenham show sometime in the future. I very much enjoyed Valencia Harbour there back in October 2015. Stephen
  25. Wow, what a beaut! Stephen
