If I may be pernickety for a second, its technically not ex gatwick. I believe it is actually one of the former enterprise generator brake carriages, but it had it's passenger windows plated over prior to gatwick use. (Anyone, please correct me if I aam wrong by the way!) You would probably have to do much the same type of thing to the model to make it.

http://irnirishrailwaynews.yuku.com/topic/371/Re-Derry-line?page=-1#.Uh3P8ahwZoM Just seen a post in this topic on IRN about a temporary re routing of derry trains via the antrim branch. I assume this means the Lisburn to antrim branch? Might be worth taking a trip
-
Thanks Gordon. Do you know has 112 returned north yet?
-
Thats a fair point blaine. Just as long as nobody goes slapping silly paint on a 111, I wouldn't be overly bothered by a stobart 201. Jhb, what exactly does a conniption entail?
-
The blue makes the sides look very tall I think.
-
Hopefully inchicore will repair it. I wonder why she was in york road? Or had she been there since the fire perhaps?
-
Yeah the loco is in pretty poor shape. Also, sorry about the smudges in the picture, the train window was filthy
-
230 at york road yesterday. I have since heard that she was hauled to Dublin this morning though
-
Wow that was a good deal you got. I hear the new hornby power cars look very good
-
It was certainly a lucky find! I went to the show with it in my head to look for a lima 50, and that one was the only one in the whole place!
-
Thanks Sulzer. It gives me an excuse to run some British carriages that hadnt been run in ages aswell
-
My friend filmed out the window as we passed, I will ask him for a still of it.
-
I got this Lima Class 50 loco at the show in Carrickfergus today. I gave the wheels a wee clean and now it is a great runner
-
Thanks Hunslet, yes it was markle's Northern Ireland Railways Archive, i looked the dvd out earlier and watched it. Have all the spoil wagons been scrapped now?
-
I am nearly sure I have seen video footage of the sea cow type and the spoil wagons running together in a rake behind a hunslet, which could be an interesting arrangement to model
-
Garfieldsghost, it was the m2 motorway construction.

I was at this show today, and enjoyed it. There where some really nice layouts and a few trade stands as well. Bought myself a bargain lima class 50 which is actually a rather good runner -
Spotted fire damaged 230 in york road today, apparently coupled to 112, so I can only assume she was hauled up. Does anyone know what she is up for? She appeared to have pipes hanging out the cab doors and looped round the front
-
I will post some still pictures once I upload them on to my pc, but my video camera is an older type that uses little tapes, so I cant put the footage on the pc unfortunately
-
I went down on Monday to laytown to film the taras. 082 passed at speed hauling I think 14 wagons
-
Thanks snapper, thats interesting.
-
Thanks. I take it that those times are correct for every weekday?
-
While it would be good to have a rail link to the UK, what gauge would they choose? Because no matter what one they chose, it would be incompatible with one side.
-
Might have been 112 because she had been parked next to the sandite set at York road for a while and I noticed she had moved somewhere yesterday
-
Most likely loco failure or an issue with the gen van on the set
