    071 photo

    While watching the Ireland v Austria match, every time I saw the Austrian keeper's kit, I thought of the new livery on 071! It even had the yellow warning panel! ;-)
  2. Thank god! I had the misfortune of getting it into town from Nutgrove when it was running on the 16A route, and I don't know whether it was the driver or the bus, but it didn't exceed more than 30kph for the entire journey to Dame St.!
  3. No negative, just the photo, but one of B109 here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VINTAGE-PHOTO-6-6-1961-B109-960HP-A1A-A1A-DIESEL-ENTERING-BIRDHILL-COPYRIGHT-/321075732972?pt=UK_Collectables_Railwayana_RL&hash=item4ac19ae1ec

  11. I was keeping an eye on it - would've went nicely with the one I have for the baby GMs. I also picked up an original GM service manual for the baby GMs 567 engine

    Programmed the freesat box last night to record this - cheers for the heads up guys!
  16. Lets hope they don't start naming the locos after his 'conquests', like they do with the trucks!
  17. To almost brand new planes though?
  18. More junk for sale: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HORNBY-CIE-IRISH-RAILWAYS-HYMEK-LOCO-/190781501832?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item2c6b76b188 and the price!
  19. Welcome onboard Karl! As Glenderg says about the attic - leave the stuff in the floor as it is, just put boards down over it, and then insulate inbetween the roof joists. This is the road I'm going down with my attic. I got a secondhand Styra (as seen on the Late Late Show!) from Donedeal for €150, and I have started putting chipboard flooring down, sitting on 4" joists. I'll insulate inbetween the roof joists when the flooring is done, as it can be rightly chilly in the attic at the moment!
  20. American quality eh?... Probably hammering them together using their eyes - zero H&S in the US of A.

  22. Lovely work there Robert - you really captured the look of a used beet wagon!
