Cheers Leslie - keen to see Richie’s cabin for sure! I have a layout in the planning stages but as for having the Mrs. onside......am still keeping it all under the radar......for now......
-
Cheers JB! Much appreciated.

I recently completed a build of two small GNR(I) buildings - thanks to everyone who commented on a few of the pics that appeared on this forum a while back. Here is a selection of photos showing how both buildings were constructed. Very enjoyable and relaxing - a lot was learnt along the way!

Patrick Davey replied to David Holman's topic in Irish Model Layouts
Fantastic David, thoroughly deserved - well done sir! -
Thanks for the kind comments, yes David 4mm. Here are a few more views of the cabin. The secret weapon - patience
-
Thanks all, I took pics of almost every stage of both builds so I'll get a thread organised shortly. I appreciate the kind comments!
-
Nice neat trackwork there Paul, looks very realistic, love the double slip!
-
Here are two GNR-style buildings I have recently completed, with just a few small details remaining to be added to both. Hoping to do a thread soon detailing their construction.

Lovely building Bantree, the water tank and its contents are fantastic!

Hi all, am needing to view colour photos of the buildings of the GNR works at Dundalk, would anyone know of an online gallery? Am not finding anything substantial so far. Thanks in advance.

Just watched episode 3, must say it's holding my attention - well-put together TV with those addictive personal experiences that you can't help but warm to, like the chap whose two kids came up to visit him on his birthday and also got to drive the train, or the girl who got emotional when she saw the place where her grandfather trained as a WWII commando......and the USA-style trestle bridge across the 'canyon' was impressive, along with the bridge across the canal lock....yip am enjoying it!
-
Awesome stuff - sad too
-
It was a bit bizarre but interesting! The 'Silver Lady' loco is actually green, but ah well. Yip next week does look like a comedy of errors but I guess that makes good TV! Will probably follow until the end of the series. Hardly a model railway though, stretching the term a bit....71 miles of a stretch!

Wonder will Hornby ever take the plunge into Irish RTR?
-
Drool. Love your memories there too JB - brought me back to a steam-era box!
-
Do you have a link for this one Andy? Thanks for the info!
-
Love the scenario JB and who better to ensure rolling stock authenticity! Definitely one to watch so lots of luck with the progress. Dave’s baseboards are top drawer.
-
Cheers guys! I don’t want to hijack Paul’s thread so hopefully more pics in a separate thread once I get going again.
-
Hi Paul, Yes I've been photographing each stage but am on a break at the moment for various reasons. Most recent ones attached. Hoping for more progress this month. Your most recent signal box photos have taken my breath away!! Happy New Year to you and to all members. Best wishes, Patrick
-
Just catching up on the signal cabin Paul, jaw dropping!!! The windows just set it off perfectly, very BNCR/NCC! The whole thing is superb, well done sir. I have a smaller, GNRI, cabin on the workbench at the moment, have some work-related stuff to sort first then I'll hopefully be back to that. Looking forward to more pics from you!
-
Looking forward to watching the progress on this, best of luck!
