  1. Lest we forget this one!
  2. Found similar for a lot cheaper! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/254107829332?hash=item3b2a01c454:g:OjwAAOSwn4ZcVv6F (This is actually Road & Rails ebay page)
  3. 'Tay-ho' the white horse lol
  4. I love the filled in turntable, and the missing flag stones in the hard standing area! Gives it a nice rundown appearance

    Customs & VAT

    I'm amazed that is the going rate - I would have expected £1 to be worth less than a Euro at this stage. Exports reportedly down 70% on pre B-word levels
  6. Same here! I always thought that green & black would have made more sense than the tan/orange & black livery that came in after the old green livery on the railway proper
  7. Why oh why would you dump a big lump of sodium or potassium into water?!?!? In a shaft with radioactive waste too no less!
  8. Plenty of glow-juice dumped in the Irish Sea for years & years, making it the most radioactive sea in the world... https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/sellafield-s-nuclear-pollution-of-the-irish-sea-took-decades-to-achieve-1.157519
  9. Oh no, no no no - that modern logo on the front of 071 looks terrible! Totally ruins the 'retro' livery
  10. It is a slim enough tome - sent in a card-backed envelope, so you should be ok I reckon!
  11. Copy arrived this morning - something to look forward to for when I get home this evening!
  12. Stick a pantograph on top & install some traction motors - job done. Also, think of the amount of batteries you could fit into the boiler space if you ripped out all the pipes!
  13. I've just ordered a copy from the RPSI website shop
  14. The dream would be to put something up on Ebay that both Musk and Bezos wanted, and for them to enter into a savage bidding war!
  15. Maybe spam comment the post, so he turns off comments? It'll only make it harder for him to sell...
  16. Murphy's Models have a technical section with details on the DCC values for their locos: http://www.murphymodels.com/Technical.html
  17. I've seen people bidding over the new price on vinyl records on Ebay that are still available from the record label's webstore!
  18. Hi Dane, I have the full boxed set, and would like to donate it to the carer of the young lad so it can make his Christmas. The funds can be donated to a charity of the carer's choice. As I only ride a motorbike, it'd have to be collected from Athlone. You can PM me to arrange a time -Andy
  19. I was on the Zoom call when this was shown - great footage for sure!
  20. IR logo is reversed - image flipped to fit on the left side of the cover
  21. Did a bit of googling on it there & you are spot on. Very weird stuff - fibrous mineral, with really tiny particle size. Fascinating, but scary to think of how it was mined, handled & used before the health threats were discovered
  22. He needs to take some pointers from AvE on box opening lol!!! (btw, he swears a bit for those who don't like that sort of thing!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztpWsuUItrA
  23. AFAIK, the ITG had to have asbestos removed from the cab walls of the B101 class they have at Carrick-on-Suir. It was blue asbestos I think, which isn't as bad to deal with as the fibrous variety.
  24. My copy arrived today too
