  1. Wow - that is really well done!
  2. No, sorry. He's only 45, so wouldn't know any of the vintage stuff. He is driving concrete trucks - all Volvos in the company he works with
  3. FYI, my brother drives trucks, and he told me that Scania drivers are called 'Tangs'.

    Such a massive case of shooting yourself in the foot. Funny thing is, the UK govt didn't even have to follow the outcome of the referendum, as they are non-binding in the UK!

    You'd want to get on to An Post - they didn't even charge you their 'fee' for processing the extra charges. Remind them to charge you on the combined cost of the item plus postage cost!
  6. That's a top tip for a grassy landscape!
  7. I'm surprised they didn't put Connolly Station!
  8. I thought I hadn't ordered them, but turns out I had!
  9. Still four in stock on Brian Collin's website for those who missed them on IRM: https://briancollinsenterprises.ie/product/oxford-diecast-irizar-i6-bus-eireann-expressway/
  10. Hopefully they didn't make the tunnel too long so that they can't reach in with an arm to recover the stock!
  11. There is always the minature railway in Marlay Park in Dublin, which has both 5" & 7.25" lines: http://www.dsmee.ie/about-us

    DART types

    I can't see any of those pics when I click the links for some reason
  13. How long would it take to get to Letterkenny at any rate - 4 hours? Mad for their cars up there anyway - especially the ones with the yellow rear plates on them...
  14. Shame Murphy's Models website hasn't been updated in a long long time
  15. I spotted a repro sign on either Donedeal or Adverts a few days ago - railway was spelt 'ralway' on it... If you are going to make fake railway signs, at least run the text through a spell-checker first!
  16. Interesting. I take it that the reason for double-heading on such a short train is incase of a loco failure?
  17. I only watched this last night about the Apollo missions - some craic on Apollo 12!: https://youtu.be/tX3tJb5WUjE
  18. So, an electric kettle then?
  19. Chips arrived this morning! Super-fast delivery!!
  20. I've been in IT support for 25+ years - this gave me a chuckle!:
  21. Sounds great! I pulled the trigger on both the Crossley and EMD variants for the A Class this morning
  22. I remember seeing it on the Green line when it was under construction now you mention it & posted the pic in its previous livery Anyone else think that GPX Rail sounds like an American railroad company?
  23. My brother sent me on this pic, taken in Osberstown Industrial estate in Naas. The home of GPX Rail (https://gpxrail.com/)
  24. Plus brexit tax if you are in the EU don't forget
  25. Single point of failure with a loco though, compared to a railcar set with multiple smaller engines
