    Great pics as usual. I love the orange and black door on 072. Is it from a 141-181. Rich,

    Sounds good Rob, look forward to seeing them. Rich,

    Can't wait to see them Rob. Rich,

    It is of great interest and is historical fact. Thank you very much for taking the time to compile and post this. You are a library of information, you're presence and willingness to share it here is hugely appreciated. Even a lot of the rolling stock that was on the network 5 years ago is consigned to history now. Historical fact like this is priceless in this hobby, and plays a huge roll in the grand scheme of things. I hope this encourages more people to photograph anything railway related and make notes because the hobby can't survive without it in the long run. Superb stuff and thank you once again. Rich,

    I think all we need now Noel is someone to invent a device that gives off the whiff of diesel. I love the generator van by the way. Rich,

    Forget the pressure, take some time out and play trains. If you get a chance some video of the sound fitted loco in service would be very much appreciated. The leveling feet on the baseboards are an essential for good running and Dave's work is stunning. You're a lucky boy. Rich,

    Some amazing photos Finnyus. I have spent many an evening looking through you're collection. I love the pics of Elephant and Castle tube station in the collection. I used it frequently when I was south of the river in London on the Bakerloo line. Rich,

    You're welcome Rob. Any advice you get and you will get plenty here put it to use and you will find something that works best for yourself. Please post some pics of your wagons when they are finished, I bet they'll look great. Rich,

    Rob I hope these will be of some use. Earthy colors dry brushed on give a very nice representation of a well worked Beet wagon. Think of the effects of the sun and the loading of the Beet and it should give you a more work a day look. Rich,

    I didn't see your post Seamus as I was compiling my own and putting up the Christmas tree at the same time so apologies for duplication, but we obviously have the same train of thought on this subject. Rich,

    Could I make a suggestion Stephen. Richie has done a fabulous job on a lot of the structures. It may be worth finishing the decorative part of the viaduct in a similar fashion and thus keeping it in appearance with the rest of the structures on the layout. Hat's off to Dave for his amazing woodwork it is something special to behold. Rich,

    Pat first of all congratulations on a great report. It must have been a sad day for those serving in the Brigade. What a historical event but very little known of it. General Ahearn's speech was very poignant. It was obviously heart wrenching for the Brigade. Rolling up the flag and the lights out salute at the end were very moving also. You know I have a big interest in the Military Pat and thanks for sharing this. Rich,

    I love Tara Junction Noel. It is so busy being a bustling railway with so many diverse trains running. It is an operators heaven and it is what modelling is all about having a great time recreating life. There are some fabulous layouts posted here and it is inspiring stuff for both new and current modellers. All I need now is the shed built as seeing Tara Junction brings home exactly what I am missing. Rich,

    I'm counting the minutes Stephen. These are going to be a landmark model, and will be simply amazing judging from the pics I have seen so far. Rich,

    You must have been watching Pulp Fiction Seamus. Rich,

    Gareth I don't need any more arm twisting as to whether I should or shouldn't after what I've heard, once Christmas is out of the road I will be ordering one. Rich,

    There is no doubt that having fitted that many models with sound you know what you are talking about Rob. I've watched the videos that the lads have posted here of their sound fitted locos and it does add a huge dimension to modelling. Sometimes it's hard to gauge a sound on a laptop with basic speakers but they do sound fantastic. Very few locos have a roar like the 071's and the lads have captured the sound to a tee. Rich,
  18. RedRich
    Rob that sounds (excuse the pun) pretty conclusive for anyone thinking about going down the sound route. Have fun with it and well down to Gareth and co for bringing it to the market. Rich,

    Nir 201

    RedRich replied to Northman's topic in Irish Models

    That sounds good, hopefully we will see 230 also. 220 and 230 were at the top of the list for me 201 wise so at least I'm halfway there. Rich,
  20. RedRich
    Hopefully I may still be able to make it. If I can't I hope everyone has a great day and please post some pics. Rich,

    That looks great Ger, I bet you're really pleased with it. Fabulous work, well done. Rich,

    John that is an amazing video. I have really enjoyed it. The scenery and the viaducts are breath taking. I love the scene of the train crossing at Gisborne Airport when the helicopter comes into view. The shots of Gisborne rail yard are fantastic from the chap changing the point to the turntable scene. New Zealand is a beautiful country and some of it looks untouched by human hands. It's really sad that the services have ended on the line. Some of the shots of the locos head on look a little like our Irish models on 16.5mm track. Once again John a really special video, thanks for posting. Rich,
  23. RedRich
    Fran, Pat I wouldn't doubt you lads. Thanks for the info, the model is smashing. It is a powerful looking loco. Rich,
  24. RedRich
    That's a hell of a machine Fran. Rich,
  25. RedRich
    Are there any models available Pat. Rich,
