    Customs & VAT

    StevieB replied to WRENNEIRE's topic in News

    As a UK resident, can I ask if VAT is payable on secondhand goods sold into ROI or is it just a sly way of charging import duty?

    Whenever I see hidden sidings of this order, I know I am in for a treat in terms of number and length of trains operating. Stephen

    How lovely just to be able to stand by the lineside and watch the trains go by. Stephen

    I first came across the odd/even number conundrum studying civil engineering, when the argument in favour of odd numbers was that the eye had something to rest on in the middle eg an odd number of arches in an overbridge. Stephen

    Sligo would have been even more interesting had the GNR(I) extended its Bundoran branch to Sligo as originally intended in the Act of Parliament. However, that would, in all probability, have rendered the subsequent SLNCR line to Sligo unnecessary. One can but dream of the endless possibilities. Stephen

    There always seems to be plenty available on eBay. They may be an old design/model but an interesting fact is that they run through code 75 pointwork no trouble at all. Stephen

    You’re spot on with that. It make life so much easier when you already have the land. Stephen

    A lovely collection of wagons. We are so lucky to have such talented people producing these kits and RTR wagons. Stephen

    The April issue of The Railway Magazine carries a piece about dualling the Limerick-Limerick Junction section, with the intention of reducing Dublin-Limerick journey times by a sizeable amount. This ties with the proposal for a regular Cork-Limerick train service, proposed by those involved with improving the road between Cork and Limerick. Interesting! Stephen

    It’s all very impressive. Keep up the good work. Stephen

    A dead but still intact railway is a strange beast. There’s an eariness about it captured in these pictures. Stephen

    Yes, she does look good in grey. Stephen

    An interesting one would be Claremorris South, a double ended terminus. Stephen

    What a unique way to fund your animal charity. Stephen

    This forum is a veritable mine of information. Long may Mayner and JHB keep churning out their answers. Stephen

    I saw Charwelton in its original guise at, I believe, Wells many years ago. It was impressive then, as it is now. Stephen

    There’s still a covered van on the website I’ve got open. Stephen

    I suspect there will be a good many in awe of what you’re achieving. You should get the finished bodies scanned in order to produce printed versions for sale. Not everyone will have so many spare parts lying around. Stephen Very helpful. Stephen

    Wonderful stuff. Stephen

    Hope all goes well. Hospitals do like their early starts. Stephen
