Hello all, been a while since I've posted here, mostly because not much has changed on the layout and I hadn't the time to give many updates, be it because of life, travelling, work or college! Either way I thought I might as well post some new pictures and ask some questions.

First of all, was gutted to hear of the passing of Paddy Murphy. Though I never properly met the man in person, the quality of his models were second to none and the Irish Model Railway scene wouldn't be what is is today without him.
Secondly, at the last Dublin exhibition in October I bought a Ratio Models kit of an LNWR corridor coach and painted it up to be an old CIE coach. Does anyone know who would be selling more of these? Would love to get a proper rake of 3 or 4 going, and I think the finished kits are convincing enough and they can easily get away with being a GSWR one-off or the like.
I also recently got this Oxford tank wagon with the intention of turning it into an "Irish Shell" wagon, anyone know where I can get decals?
Last point I wanted to make is that I have a Vinted, now I doubt anyone on this forum will have much interest in what I have to sell as it's mostly my old British stock (and clothes),but it cant hurt to get the word out!

Either way, that's all from me, really looking forward to the Park Royals, I have a pair pre ordered for myself and I'm checking the news tab regularly for updates! Hope all is well on yer end,
All the best,
Adam
