I've seen some pictures of the 'sound barrier' opposite Inchicore, where some of the 001/201 locos look like the tan/orange has faded to what looks like a shade of pink even
Very interesting - nice to see track renewal in the model form, just like the real thing!
I've been meaning to get some G scale track down out in the garden, but haven't got around to it yet
Balls - just ordered without fully reading the post above re the discount for those who ordered the other two packs.

I remember the very same about the gangways when I was a kid - late 70s/early 80s. Loved it!
I can remember the first day of the Dart - probably the only thing I liked about the Dart was pushing the button after it lit up to open the doors!
I heard one lad in the canteen today recounting his tale to others of how on Saturday, he got into his car 'just to go for a drive'. Utter gobshite. He went on to say how he couldn't even get out of his estate. Midlands based I think.
Just bear in mind that it isn't an insured service.
They managed to lose a watch on my dad - got successfully delivered to Addresspal in St. Albans, but then disappeared
Yep - same here. Very enjoyable watching to round off the weekend.
Simple idea running the loco backwards up the hill to stop the water going into the cylinders. I like seeing the problems, and how they overcome them
Just a heads up that on Channel 4 at 8pm tonight, starts a five part series on building a model railway in O gauge, to run from Fort William to Inverness.

Stunning! The blue & cream is a lovely livery - a big improvement on the all blue with yellow stripe.
I hope to pickup a set on the Munster Double tour
Yep - big stout steel frame either side of a bridge at the level of the bridge would do it. I like your idea for the retractable bollards for LCs, only this would be very very expensive & time consuming to do
