  1. Time to give that 'dwarf' an axing!
  2. Looks like it had technical difficulties & they had to cancel the first planned run
  3. As one of my friends says - "you are insured for everything but a claim!"
  4. and we all know how in-sewer-ants shower will do anything to avoid paying out!
  5. I remember sneaking a camera into a gig years ago - around 1990 I'd say. I cleaned condensation off the viewfinder, but not the lens! Looked all good through the viewfinder, but all shots came back like I was standing in a fog bank!
  6. Inclined Plane is the term with respect to railway wagons linked by cable, isn't it?
  7. Kids these days will never know the pain of not being able to preview pics, and having to pay a fair whack for a couple of dozen shots!
  8. Speaking of EVs... https://electrek.co/2025/06/21/fortescue-infinity-train-electric-locomotive-never-needs-fuel-or-charging/
  9. No point in having a website if you aren't keeping it up to date
  10. Murphys Models announced Dart Plus? Where did you see that? Nothing on their website about it
  11. Sorry, the little group I'm in only won €25 last night - short seven zeros!!
  12. 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!
  13. https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/irelands-first-american-locomotive-turns-heads-in-transit-as-it-arrives-in-new-co-down-home/a1760367688.html and also found video of the move too: https://youtu.be/mCcJZFPM6RI?si=uiEgnCX39bL786TE
  14. 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
  15. 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

  16. 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
  17. Same here DJ! I got all the videos on VHS first, then rebought them all on DVD later
  18. Spotted this one on Adverts, if any use to you: https://www.adverts.ie/models/bus-eireann-expressway-dublin-airport-free-post/35813061
  19. 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/
  20. 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
  21. I remember playing it too - and also the Irish addon "The Enterprise". Great seeing Irish stock in a game
  22. Big heavy I-beam 20ft before the bridge - let the trucks hit that instead of the bridge
  23. They mention pickup in Kildare - would it be safe to assume that there will be a return stop at Kildare on the way back?
