From Auckland NZ??? How and why?
-
On the Channel 5 programme on railways, when they featured Ireland, they mentioned the Dublin to rosslare line was one of the most expensive in Europe to maintain! https://www.channel5.com/show/chris-tarrant-extreme-railway-journeys/
-
Not sure if this link has been posted before but a great view of some of the early Bell wagons, making of the ferts, and arial shots of several stations.
-
Great looking wagons! Will there be differing numbers available on wagons of the same livery?
-
Not yet anyway lol
-
Was gone in minutes. I tried.
-
I believe the express passenger locomotives had larger radius drive wheels with smaller wheels used to help guide the locomotive. Locos for branch line, mixed and freight traffic ran at slower speeds and did not need this more complex and expensive configuration.

Is the LNWR water tower preserved?
-
Hi guys, Did many Black Hawthorne locos operate in Ireland? I saw one in the culrural museum near Belfast, sweet little engine.
-
Some good material here also http://irishrailarchives.ie/index.php/2019/05/03/dublin-blessington-tramway-archive-photo-feature/ Also picked up a more recent booklet in the bookshop in Blessignton by a local author, will try and dig out the reference.

How many were originally in that livery guys?
-
Hi guys, How many 071s survived in silver and black? Also, any trusted modeller out there who could convert an 071 supertrain livery into the grey with yellow front ends for me?
-
Long live the rivet counters!!!!
-
Are each of the keg cages numbered differently in each of the packs? Great looking models.
-
If any knows of a boxed Lima 201, I would be interested only because I believe they were the first prototypical Irish model produced from the Murphy stable.
-
Have you a link?
-
What would these different types of lamps be used for?
-
Thanks for this guys, very helpful.
-
Great to know. What is the difference between a guard's van lamp and a loco lamp? Did they burn paraffin?
-
Hi folks, Looking for a reliable source of info on locomotive / wagon lamps as well as others used on level crossings etc. Were lamps on the Irish network substantially different to the those used in the UK? Where were these lamps made?
-
Will they have the same need for grease to run smoothly?
-
I think its a fake site: Spray Tan Fresno! I think its one of the well produced emerging scams. If ordering use a credit card so you can claim back and watch ur bills..

Would be great to be able to finally complete the rake.
-
I disagree, given the volumes you would need to sell to cover rent, rates and other overheads. Let alone make a living from it. Prices will always be compared to those online so you are competing with a very large market, often with lower overheads. I would be cautious about investing in such a business. Do your planning well and be realistic.

I'd love a rake in CIE but would wish they did 4 or 5 packs to be able to have a long enough rake
