  1. 183 has now been sold to Knawa from this forum
  2. Not Ebay, but there are a couple of bits on Adverts at the moment: MM0230 201 class for €195: https://www.adverts.ie/models/murphy-models-201/31405776 3x Cravens for €200: https://www.adverts.ie/models/model-railway-murphy-models-coaches/32626686 Lima Mk2 Galway livery 3 pack for €180: https://www.adverts.ie/toy-cars-trains-boats-planes/model-railway-trains-lima-galway-set-rare/32575749
  3. I'd be in the same position - no layout, but buy locos as they are released, instead of looking for them when they are all sold out & having to pay a small fortune for them!
  4. For sale - just in case anyone here missed the first run of Paddy's most excellent Baby GMs, I'd like to give members here the chance to grab any they missed / were searching for
  5. I have a double of MM0077 & MM0085. Baby GM doubles I have are: MM0177 IE weathered MM0183 IR weathered MM0143 IR MM0171 IE MM0156 IR MM0181 B181 Black MM0188 B188 Black MM0190 MM0192 MM0187 MM0146 MM0141 MM0165 MM0184
  6. I've a couple of 071 I have double of, along with several Baby GMs that I should let go of - put towards the new batch of MM 141/181
  7. Just plays with a black screen for me - I can hear sound though
  8. Like Tik Tok so - full of shite for the illiterate, pre-teens with ADHD
  9. Possibly the Brennan Monorail system?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUYzuAJeg3M a pretty crazy idea, which I only discovered for the first time over Christmas
  10. Ah, thanks Leslie - I've fired off a mail now to get access, as I am a member of the IRRS. In the mail, I have also mentioned that the IRRS are free to use any of the pics I have from previous ITG tours - same to folk on here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/renniks75/albums/
  11. One of the ITG tours "The Blue Thunderer" I took pics of, on my Flickr page: https://flic.kr/s/aHsjCreAVE There are albums with other ITG tours there as well
  12. Even after resetting my Flickr password, I am getting a 403 error - no permission to view the page. Hey ho...
  13. Xmas - the 'holiday' formally known as Twittermas
  14. Some info on it here: https://www.theregister.com/2023/12/08/polish_trains_geofenced_allegation/
  15. Still looks way more legit than the Lima repaint of the Class 25 with its three window panes!
  16. Take pictures instead of videos would be a good start
  17. For fans of narrow gauge rail, here's some vids of action on a sugar cane railway in East Java: https://youtu.be/xUpEd3SINB4?si=HiwCDphq_kyNnjfl https://youtu.be/ixaEYunKOtE?si=I-B6Fpr2ML28UjIW

  18. Short vid guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3_j6WrhvB0
  19. Nothing worse than a splinter/sliver when it gets deep into the skin - also shows the importance of eye protection when using those wire wheels
  20. Turf is a rubbish fuel - terribly low efficiency compared to coal. Bullied gave it a go, but even with the turf soaked in oil, it still wasn't great
  21. At the same time, there's a guy in Germany selling stuff at fairly reasonable prices, plus postage is low and there is no chance of getting hit with the 'Brexit bonus' either! https://www.ebay.ie/sch/i.html?item=364564898642&rt=nc&_trksid=p4429486.m3561.l2562&_ssn=magr216967
  22. One of the ITG tours (possibly the Suir Thing, 9th Oct 2004)- I was on that one. I think tour loco 085 was swapped out there for 152 + 190 off the cement
