The church is now in position on the layout, bedding in will follow. Looks a lot darker here than it actually is.
-
More or less finished the church now, a few tiny details still to go eg. gutters on the tower and sacristy, as well as doorsteps.

Clogherhead - A GNR(I) Seaside Terminus
Patrick Davey replied to Patrick Davey's topic in Irish Model Layouts
Back to the station today and it has now been bedded in, along with the station nameboard. More vegetation shall be applied once the glue dries.- 721 replies

I experimented on spare windows and didn’t get it right, presumably because I put it on too thick, but I used an extra fine nozzle for the above, and I’m very happy with the result

Officially my new favourite tool for glazing windows. Yes it’s more work but the results are better, they really do look like individual panes methinks!

Brilliant!!!

Apparently there was a bit of an incident at Clogherhead church today. The visiting curate Fr. Hemingway went missing but eventually turned up at Bundoran after attempting to visit every location on the GNR. It seems he misunderstood the bishop’s instruction to do ‘all the stations.’ (Apologies if only those of a certain persuasion understand that!)

Thanks Noel Altar now added - in the style of the Pre-Vatican II churches! Also a statue above the front door and a date stone.

JB it’s one of the many insane stories I have prepared for this, and you provided the perfect CATalyst!

Yes good question! I guess Aer Lingus made up the shortfall later though!

The lady who arranges the flowers in the church is called Lily Rose Tansey, and she has a cat called Peregrine (just to compound things, her husband is a top link GNR driver) and with a name like that there are definitely no mice to be found. She chose that name because it was always going to be a church cat, hence named after a bird of pray.

The parishioners now have somewhere to sit and kneel, and the priest has a roof and window on his sacristy. Just the altar to go and the interior will be complete.

And the aforementioned PP was called Rev. Glen Farne…..

I think you are onto something here GM, I have done a bit of research and apparently the sacristan team at the church included two sisters, Florence Court and Hazel Wood……

Mr. Weaver decided to have the mill carpentry team construct a life-size nativity scene for the season. Happy Christmas from Brookhall Mill -
