The ballasting looks very neat Stephen. I am looking forward to hearing some first hand news about the performance of the cube magnets. Rich,

Those are three very generous deals Seamus considering the fact that they are all really nice models. Rich,

Thank you very much Seamus for taking time out to have a look at the model. The very fact that there are people who remove the body for DCC decoder (sound) fitting or changing or installing LED's it makes a huge difference. It is also very important for the lads that provide weathering and respraying services (all to a great standard) on here. I totally agree with Seamus (Heir Flick) about the gap between cab and chassis on the babies once the cab is removed. I had to do some filing and sanding myself with one, but thankfully it looks spot on now. I really hope that the cab chevrons on the IR - IE locos are corrected before release, and that the IE logos are the correct size on the bonnets of the models. I cant wait for the models to be available to buy especially 112. Rich,

The scene looks like a winters evening Eamonn, great work and a lot of thought has gone into it. Rich,

We had Guinness trains Seamus and there were rails in James's Gate. Rich,

Cheers Fitz. Rich,

Could be Anthony. It would be nice if they were a one piece moulding like some US models. I've seen some 141-181 models with broken handrails from removing the bodies from the chassis and footplate. Rich,

Kirley things are moving at a great speed when you consider that the build only started in July, great work. Rich,

It might be a bit of more informative information if the contents of the plaque was mentioned in the post. Rich,

A picture speaks a thousand words Dave. I see screws in the chassis does that mean that the body, foot plate and skirt is one moulding. Rich,

Gareth I am listening to President Gas as I am reading your post and posting mine, what a coincidence. Rich,

That's another fine bit of kit bashing Popeye well done. Rich,

A fine model, great work and a nice paint job. Rich,

No probs Fran, will do. Rich,

I hope that the 67 is a return to the quality of the 08 and class 60 Fran. I'm not bothered about the gimmicky details like opening doors etc. I just hope it looks like a 67. Will it have brake disc's on the wheels also. Rich,

That would make for one inspirational layout John. Its always nice to add something prototypical to a layout if it is in the vicinity of the area you are modelling. A chap I know is in the planning stages of basing a layout on Campile during the 60's early 70's and is hoping to add Ballycullane Viaduct to the scenic part of the build. If modelling in this area of the country it would be a good idea to try and have a talk with Jack Kennedy if you get the opportunity as his knowledge of the area is limitless. Rich,

I was passing that way a week ago Eamonn, on the road where the Currabaha level crossing was. It would all make a hell of a model including the viaduct. Rich,

Eamonn looking at your work and the way you are improving all the time in every area I honestly think you could do it. Rich,

He'll love it. 078 would make a nice renumbering exercise for one of the IE led light cluster models with a small IE logo on the side of the loco. Come on Eamonn you have to do it now. Rich,

Still one of my favorite 071 photos Eamonn I love the small body side logo and open doors. Rich,

That's good news I might invest in another one myself in case my other one goes missing. Is there a checkrail or flangeway gauge available from the stores for 21mm as it's always handy to have two of each. Rich,

Smashing photos Cathal the DB Schenker livery looks realy familiar now that some UK locos are turned out in it. Rich,

I've only just seen this thread now. Excellent work and the wagons look great with the Bell containers in situ. Rich,

Now could be the time to stock up on some more chairs for the layout build. Rich,

It'll nice to be able to go online and order from the webpage. I have to say that I think the P4 Track Co products are better detailed and the special chairs for building track are fantastic. Having said that C&L also offer some great products in their range. Rich,
