  1. Fabulous - love the station building too JB!
  2. Even with the talk of new layouts elsewhere and selling others, life goes on at Clogherhead.
  3. Ballasting & point rodding finished, and none of the ballast fell off when I lifted the board. I'm one of those strange types who finds ballasting very relaxing! This ballast seems to be actual stone too which I haven't used before. Nice stuff! A busy work weekend ahead so that should give the ballast time to dry completely so I can add a bit of weathering and some foliage next week.
  4. Ballasting and point rodding being implemented. I’m just using 4mm rodding as there isn’t very much needed and it looks ok to me!! Also OO gauge ballast too - it’s always recommended to use ballast from a smaller scale and it definitely works here!
  5. After a rookie mistake with electrofrog points, which was swiftly identified and rectified by Alan @Tullygrainey, testing of the track layout has been successfully completed FullSizeRender.MOV FullSizeRender.mov
  6. Alan you will be ready for this in no time:
  7. Magnificent transformation!
  8. BROOKHALL MILL - POSSIBLE SALE Hi all - I have had a number of kind folk reach out to me about the possibility of making my Irish micro layout ‘Brookhall Mill’ available for sale. It wasn’t something I had originally considered, but on reflection, it would be better if it was kept operational. If I had all the space in the world, I would do that myself, but I don’t and I’m moving on to other projects. So I thought I would float the idea to the members of the two forums of which I am a member to gauge (boom boom) if there was any firm interest, and then make a decision regarding putting it up for sale. The details are as follows: • OO gauge, with a scenic section of 48in x 18in, and a short single track ‘fiddle yard’ extension. All Peco track. • End-to-end terminus, not continuous run, with only very short train movements possible • DC, but easily convertible to DCC • GNR(I)-themed with a wide range of fully detailed and authentically-styled GNR(I) buildings, all with interior detail and illumination • Co. Antrim-based but easily adapted to represent other areas on the GN network and suitable for running stock into the modern era • Overhead lighting provided via rechargeable strips • Easily assembled and dismantled for exhibitions I was thinking of two pricing options: • £475.00 - to include a Gaugemaster twin-track controller (worth around £150.00) • £400.00 - without the controller Note that no rolling stock would be included in a sale. If there was sufficient interest, I would envisage the layout being available at the end of August. All enquiries via direct message - thanks!
  9. Classic photo of Kells - one of three Irish stations with that name. I was there recently: And I was particularly fortunate to meet somebody who was working in the building, and he showed me the largely unaltered interior: The problem with visiting places like this is that it gives you ideas
  10. Thanks JB. I have discovered a little issue with the wiring which I will fix once a particularly busy work period has concluded, then ballasting and final weathering
  11. Nice! Will you include sidings for a preservation society nearby? Can’t wait to see this one!
  12. It’s interesting that 5.5mm scale is almost exactly 1:55
