Only had time for a carriage not a complete set. 'Pologies to Finbarr. Richie.

Sad news indeed. May she rest in peace.

Speak Now, or Forever.... Public Transport Consultation
Glenderg replied to islandbridgejct's topic in News
Ha ha! On a bus run to london in my early twenties stopped there to offload passengers. Saw a turban wearing elderly chap drinking a pint of guinness outside a rough irish pub at ten in the morning. Freaked me out, swore i'd never go back. I agree on the lack of practicality of 5'3" through the city, but the thought of a load of junkies getting squashed by pocket containers at 4am on abbey street makes me chuckle. R. -
My strategy is to get early before my peers get jaded and fed up. Also an excuse to relive student life with a couple of early sups afterward. Innaugaral meet of Scratchers & Kitbashers Anonymous. [ dont mind scotts bus depot fran, its the top floor of busaras you wanna see!]

Back with a bang, and we'll be the better for it! Which era green is it? The park royal version? R

Holy schmoly george. Any bigger and the RPA will be round with an army of consultants in tow! Just out of curiosity, is there a lean mix of mortar or so above the blockwork to fix the track to, or is it fixed neat to the blockwork? Just costing out my fantasy layout in my non-existent garden.... Richie

There have been rumours that some of the boxes have a mind of their own and snap shut, almost chopping the fingers off. I'm told this only occurs in Raheny.

Teh aul' Garda Sneakalony tactics? No better lads for studyin the bushes.

Our Glorious Leader, Boskonay, hosts the site, and absorbs all the costs, which i believe to be 2000+ Eu per year, which is probably the single most philanthropic contribution to the irish modelling scene since time immemorial, for which we all should be extremely grateful for.I certainly am. As a long term hope, i'd would love some of the silent majority to post more, no matter if you glued it together a silicone gun, painted it with a distemper brush, or screwed the layout together with a hammer.

Oh you're right there Broithe, the only thing consistent about the width is that there is none. This is 150mm version taken on a typically glorious day in loveless junction 2004'ish. A strip about 2.5mm looks "right" for modern era stuff.

What size are the timbers and what depth is the concrete?

"...the box been tested and found to be ok " Bid with confidence then....

Kieran, Modern ones are 200mm wide - 2.6mm, and historic ones varied from 400mm - 5.2mm if granite kerbing for steam era, then 300mm - 4mm for concrete paving slab type from the 60's onward til elf n safety took over. Richie.

Happy to help out where I can Bosko. Mighty interesting stats particularly when you consider 2,300 threads in a year. That's solid stuff indeed. Uhm, about the 450+ pm's, you want me to clear mine up? R

Good post FL. Some of the lads might definitely be interested in Connolly for sure. I'll be there with bells on http://openhousedublin.com/index.php/tour/connolly-station Full list here http://openhousedublin.com/index.php/listings Some of the better ones are lottery only, like the Fitzgerald Terminal at Dublin Airport

Absolutely superb bit of work, and the build commentary shows the level of detail you're aiming for, and it shows. Looking forward to seeing the project advance to primer stage! R.

I couldnt believe it when you told me about these yokes. The very idea that cravens would smash into bits and the guard would call "break out the splinters" no matter the injuries suffered, is a joke beyond belief. Was this another crackpot Bulleid notion, with Holy water in the first aid box too?
