Interesting discussion lads. Since the stanchions are cradles, it should be easy enough to produce a fold up etch, one would have thought, that sits on the wagon, ala the prototype. The end ones just have some extra steel and the upright end panel and ladder. I'd imagine they could fit on the SSM 42' or a KFA to suit, until a 62'9" comes along... Weshty?....?...

+ 1. Cant come up with words to describe it... wow. Props to mayner for such a great kit. Now that i've gathered my thoughts, what odourless glue would you recommend? Richie

glad to see my ramblings have some sense! very tidy bit of work too. the paint I used was an acrylic, will get you the code in the morning.

superb. do my eyes deceive me but are there characters on stilts in one of the photos? and where did he get the angry dog from - the one about to bite one of the patrons! Would pay in to see that layout.

Good god kieran, that fourth shot is like a constable or turner painting.

Nice start Timmy. Get the jib in yellow and you're not a million miles from this girl...

Yeah, you're right. It was 133 for scrapping. [h=3]Short description of the contract or purchase(s)[/h]Iarnrod Eireann have up to 48 Class Mk III vehicles which require refurbishment. The vehicles are aprox.20 years old and we will require complete refurbishment including elements of heavy engineering.

IE put out a tender for refurbishment of 133 MK3 carriages in November 08, so in fairness they did make an effort. The economics mustn't have added up, as the contract was never awarded.

Found the drawing for this last night, so thought I'd post it up with photos. 001 at Ballingrane Junction by jon33040, on Flickr Further information welcome. Bosko - Can you add this to the "Prototype Information" section please? Richie.

A full 6 pages of the same wagon discussed here Ben! http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/727-low-loader?p=8770&viewfull=1#post8770 R.

It was a negotiated tender so different firms for different locations would be considered the "most economically advantageous".

Some are in immaculate condition, others with graffiti, but not as wrecked looking as the batch Gordon Hawkins took in Dundalk.

Now yer suckin dayzel! I have a couple hundred photos of them taken about a year ago down there. Will ask permission tomorrow from the owner if i can post them up - possibly the best and most comprehensive set of modeller/enthuiast friendly mk3 photos ever taken.

Aye Shem, can make myself available as freelance IRM correspondent for an hour!

Do the wheels get recycled mark, or get scrapped also? Might pop down during the week for a nosey, it's only a 15 min dander for me.
-
Hamill's in Belfast are the scrap merchants so one could assume since it's close to the port tunnel and motorway north they'd scrap them at the North Wall. Just a guess though...

Ha ha Nelson. Don't ever apologise about mess. Mess is good! Keep up the good work. I admire your attention to detail and methodology and look forward to your postings. Richie

Why not sir, to all the fair, albeit large wheeled, ladies of the five foot three, and all the lunatic lovers who miss them so. Salud -

Astonishingly brilliant use of the english language given your bottled company! Having a little drop of powers meself whilst working on some supertrained honies - good times! If you find the snaps, ping them onto arrivals@glenderg.com and i'll skin them in all manner of peculiar liveries. Just don't ask for CIE green - it'll be handbags at dawn! Richie
