As one of my friends says - "you are insured for everything but a claim!"

and we all know how in-sewer-ants shower will do anything to avoid paying out!

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!

Inclined Plane is the term with respect to railway wagons linked by cable, isn't it?
-
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!

No point in having a website if you aren't keeping it up to date

Murphys Models announced Dart Plus? Where did you see that? Nothing on their website about it

skinner75 replied to skinner75's topic in What's happening on the network?
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

“The Irish Corridor” an Irish Train game
skinner75 replied to Westcorkrailway's topic in General Chat
I remember playing it too - and also the Irish addon "The Enterprise". Great seeing Irish stock in a game -
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
-
I'm in the same boat - I get Accurascale emails, I can see my outstanding orders, but not for all my orders - Hunslet, and 22000 orders haven't shown up in my AS orders page. Also, no loyalty points transferred over. I don't think I ever received the email about setting up an AS account - I manually created my AS account. I have opened a ticket with AS support on this (I think - memory is bad...) - I think I had better open another one just to be sure Woo hoo - my points have just updated on the AS site!
-
Not my era (thankfully, says my wallet!), but sure looks the part!
