    Some further helpful clarification from the guys today. Our free shipping for all EU orders is now over €150. However, for small parts, accessories and also some decoders(slow sellers or for older runs), these are shipped from our warranty team in Darlington, or Dublin. This allows us to continue to offer these items, which are not suited to shipping from our main warehouse, which is a large fulfillment operation. The postage on those orders are charged based on the appropriate Royal Mail tarriff, which the system will apply at the checkout.

  9. Would anyone be able to recommend a source of diagrams for the Schull and Skibbereen Railway like the one below?
  10. News from Waterford is that fund raising for Kettering no 3's restoration and work on infrastructure appears to have been largely successful. Only circa 45k left to raise. The frame of the train shed extension is built, cladding going on at present. Plans for a water tower design are being considered. If the final funding gap can be closed then the loco might be in Ireland sometime next year. Hats off to the volunteers.
  11. Especially if Silver Fox are no longer doing these.be great to have these with tail lamps.

  15. Blyth,bulit by the same company restoring Kettering no 3 was delivered in 2022. Prices for raw materials and labour have significantly increased. Unlikely the same could be built for less thank £350 today. I beleive it will be steamed May 25th. https://www.railadvent.co.uk/2026/05/steam-locomotive-blyth-to-make-operational-public-debut-this-may-bank-holiday.html
