Sorry, the little group I'm in only won €25 last night - short seven zeros!!

Just watched the two startup vids the ITG posted of them being started for the first time in preservation - great stuff lads! They both sound sweet as a nut!

It's all a grift - threaten a country with tarrifs, which can be reduced/removed if they pay $$$$$$$ for the 'Trump coin' - so, yet again, just another grift

The gobshite...

I read about the launch of this site, showcasing possible filming locations, and found they have a good few shots of Mullingar station. May prove useful to someone modelling the station. There are also shots of the White Bridge in Athlone. https://www.filmingwestmeath.ie/mullingar-train-station

Trump said he was going to impose mad tariffs, and the fools still voted for him... That being said, they were probably more focused on all the racist policies he promised

Same here DJ! I got all the videos on VHS first, then rebought them all on DVD later

Spotted this one on Adverts, if any use to you: https://www.adverts.ie/models/bus-eireann-expressway-dublin-airport-free-post/35813061

South Dublin Model Railway Club, & the Wexford Model Railway Club will be in attendance https://www.westmeathexaminer.ie/2025/04/09/more-than-100-collectors-and-traders-expected-for-mullingar-diecast-and-toy-show/

Saw this on Adverts if anyone is looking - he also has 111 for sale too: https://www.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/murphy-models-nir-8113/36725311 https://www.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/murphy-models-nir-111/36725336

I remember playing it too - and also the Irish addon "The Enterprise". Great seeing Irish stock in a game

Big heavy I-beam 20ft before the bridge - let the trucks hit that instead of the bridge

They mention pickup in Kildare - would it be safe to assume that there will be a return stop at Kildare on the way back?

Hi all, does anyone have approximate outward pickup and return setdown times for Kildare for this trip? I have emailed the RPSI last week, but haven't heard anything back from them
