Interesting, I know that the Restaurant and EGV were being released in the Galway livery. There were also supposed to be some Standards released in IE livery, two with black roofs and one with an orange roof. I wonder has this been changed and all releases will be in the Galway livery. Rich,

Those photos are great, thanks for sharing. The railway certainly had a lot more character then. Rich,

I'd say DA99/5 are the ones that would be best suited to you Stephen. SSM do a nice kit now and they can be made working. The Springside ones are of an earlier type to the LED ones that IE use now. I think with most layouts running in day time settings the ones Eamonn has recommended would be fine. They used to do a set with one red lamp and the rest were clear so be careful. Rich,

That was a good find Fran and looks excellent. It was a fair few years ago when that was offered to the collectors club. It really blew the Heljan 57 models out of the water. Rich,

That sounds good Des. It's always a good test to send the items to a pro like George Dent, he's a fine modeller. Rich,

Sulzer under construction at Inchicore
RedRich replied to Garfield's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
That's a real gem Pat, good find. Thanks for posting it. Rich, -
The rake looks cool behind the baby GM Eamonn. Very nice models. Rich,
-
Well done Des, the very best of luck with it. Des just as an aside, with the flat bogie wagon in the pipeline would you consider producing the cages for those excellent kegs in the SSM range. With the demise of MIR it is a big hole in the market. Rich,

Nice model Fran, it resembles the grey livery IE have used on 077. Could the handrails be removed and reshaped after a dunk in some warm water. Rich,
-
You're doing a smashing job Tom with Tara's. No doubt they will look cool when done. Rich,
-
Well at least they didn't cover it in wood chip and paint it magnolia Eamonn. Rich,
-
I haven't looked in for a while John and I am delighted to see your progress. Great modelling and a great inspiration. Rich,
-
I think the videos are a bit too late for the Golden Globes and Oscars Stephen, but it's nice to see you having fun running your stock. It's a great alternative to if you are having one of those days. Rich,
-
Well it doesn't retract anything from your modelling ability Eamonn and that's the main thing. Rich,
-
The original post with the video has been deleted by the OP also Karl, interesting. Rich,

I said further back in the thread that I thought it looked OK Fran. It needs to be seen outside in natural light. I think it is similar to the NIR 111 class with the familiar all over body color and warning panel. The skirt seems to be the same color also. I reckon she'll look good from a platform as she is passing. Rich,

075 assists failed 072 on the IWT liner.
RedRich replied to ttc0169's topic in What's happening on the network?
Lovely shot Noel. 075 is a bit of an odd ball having never received the IE logo on the cab front. Rich, -
Livery aside it's a great testament to the class that they are still being overhauled for many more years of work. They must be the most successful diesel locos we have had. Rich,

RedRich replied to steventrain's topic in What's On?
Cheers Stephen it should be well worth a look. Rich, -
No chance Riversuir. George is a dyed in the wool rebel. The Tara's look smashing, one of MIR'S best kit's. The scratch builds are smashing. Rich,
-
Lovely work Riversuir, George will definitely sort out the weathering for you. It's nice to see another Waterford man involved in the hobby. Keep up the good work. Rich,

Murphy Models 071 - New, detailed pre-production photos added!
RedRich replied to Admin's topic in Irish Models
I've just been having a look at some 071 pictures in my collection and there seem to be some details present on the chassis of the model above the fuel tanks. I wonder if these are representations of the lights that are used on the prototype when re fueling in poor light. If they are (although they are not working on the model) it is another great piece of capturing the look as accurately as possible. I'm getting to love the models more every day. Rich, -
Exclusive Bus Model - Only from Brian Collins Enterprises
RedRich replied to Brian Collins Enterprises's topic in Bus models
Well done Brian for taking the plunge. I wish you the very best of luck. Rich, -
Great work Ken, it's an area we don't see modelled that often. It's very interesting. Rich,
-
You're flying Noel. The loco will look impressive in the livery you have chosen. Weathering look's good btw, keep us up to date. Rich,
