    121 Class locos were used on the ex-AEC push-pulls operating the Bray-Greystones shuttle for the period between the withdrawal of the last of the B201 Class in November 1986 and the withdrawal of the final push-pull in September 1987. As far as I know, members of the 141 and 181 classes were never used on push-pulls.

    It's a reference to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad being the Iron Rod of Iran And he does look a bit like the Assistant Manager COYBIG

    Seriously impressive work Paul. Your work so far on the additional structures has taken the Scenecraft model to a whole new level. Can't wait to see your progress in the larger scale.

    Perhaps 'Steam Heating Vans for passenger trains' would be more accurate. The type of van in the photo did not have any generating capacity and was purely a steam heating van.

    A not great photo of part of a magnesite / oil train at cork, taken in the summer of 1971.

    Fair play Des. That's why I said 'small' point.

    Looks great Des. Just one small point. I think that the two angled bars (indicate by the arrows in the photos) should be horizontal. Model Prototype

    In Everard Junction's video 'Building a Model Railway - Part 2 - Planning' ( )he covers the entire baseboard in cork and then uses additional thin cork sheets to raise the track above this level. So the balast never touches the wood of the baseboard.

    DTSOs 741 and 748 were part of the second batch of 80-class railcar sets, ordered by NIR in 1975 and put into service 1977/78. They were built new for NIR by BREL and did not see service with BR. 741 was introduced in Jan 1978 and was withdrawn following a fire bombing at Finaghy in Sept 1979. No 748 was introduced in May 1978 and was withdrawn following a fire at Crumlin in May 1979.

    Obviously before the H&S regime took over!

    When she who must be obeyed tells you it is! Which is usually very early in the process.

    These were 80 Class driving trailers, not Enterprise stock. DiveController has detailed their building dates. As to the 'why' part of your query - they were bought to replace 741 and 748 which were damaged during the troubles.

    Congratulations John!

    And it seems to be being pushed by a Metro-Vick or a Sulzer. Maybe for filming?

    Placed my order in at the show yesterday. And it was nice to meet a couple of the lads behind this excellent venture.

    Fantastic news. Wishing you the best for the new venture. I'm certain it will be a roaring success!

    Congratulations Stephen and to all concerned with developing the new look. Excellent result.

    Wow! That last pic really shows just how massive the model is. Excellent workmanship.

    Fantastic model Paul.

    The mind boggles. Anyone up for producing a photoshop image of this?

    DC, the 1st Class section of the compo would, generally, have been at the EGV end of the coach. On the Cork line the consist on the principal trains was (from the Cork end): EGV, CityGold, Catering, 6 Standards.

    Really impressive Kieran!

    Brilliant job Noel.

    He hasn't got his hi-viz jacket and safety footwear on!
