Hi Guys

I have cars, trucks, couple of buses, fork lift and little fire engine [HO and a bigger scale]

I'd be happy to get €50 for the lots.

Open to offers.

Wow. Reminds me of when I worked in Cork years ago.

Hi Guys,

I have a collection of Faller buildings for sale.

If anybody's interested a small item would be €3, midsize €5 and larger ones €10.

I am open to offers.

Eoin will have them on Sunday and the Train and Model Fair in Bray this Sunday.

Can anyone identify the manufacturer of this US style Streetcar. i think it is a model of a Bireny Car. It is HO guage. There is no manufacturer's name or other visible identification marks.

Looking great Eoin. Love the yard, 3rd shot in particular with the hut in view.

Trees maketh the scene.

Hi Broithe,

Eoin said, "Yea, real life is bigger!".

Will you accept pre-orders for a nominal metre length 00 gauge cassette unit please, please?

Eoin is with me this morning, working on Greystones project [need a few more trees]

Eoin is embarrassed . He is overcome with demand for his unique skills and has an array of projects awaiting finishing and starting [JHB!] even.

Wile he appreciates the offer of employment but feels  honour bound to decline. 

I fear some will be driven to homicide if he accepts the opening. 

And I need someone to fix my trees.

What a fabulous model.

Marvelous that you had the space for the station and streetscape. 

very realistic and a joy to see.

IE decided to test a new high-speed service connecting Dublin with Paris via Rosslare. They acquired a specially modified and reguaged version of the Franco Belgium Thalys sets for testing purposes. Unfortunately, the project was not proceeded with as a result of the financial crash. 

 

 

great work

That flood light just makes me feel cold; is there a fire in the hut?

Hi Eoin.

Great shots, though you could be kinder to 617's driver. The worker is a slacker!

The J10 is looking great.

Can't wait to see it running.

As usual, a masterful conversion.

Cant wait to see the finished product. Fantastic modelling.

Comments much appreciated. Thanks.

Eoin was insistent, but it was difficult, even when doing the doggie paddle.

Great shots, Eoin.

Hi all

 

The J10 now has all its bits on- vacuum pipes fixed into the buffer beam with brass split pins, period coupler irons at the front, and then to cap it all- a nut on the dome....

Stuff in the paintshop, and some under-coated, I have decided to go with Humbrol 27 following a previous post

Splendid, splendid, splendid.

First class, Eoin.

The photos explain how complex these hand-made models are. They are far from standard type, run-of-the-mill models and have me in awe of Eoin's skills, which far exceed my capacities.

Now if he'd only hurry up and finish my €10 china, plastic-molded,Jinty.

Oops, do I mean J10?

Fine model of the the Bailey Lighthouse. Howth looks empty and I don't recognize the outboard motor. Not up to murrayec's usual standard, I think!!

I can confirm that the loco is not a "Jinty", it is a "J10".

A typical example of Eoin's excellent modelling skills, though I draw the line at his proposal to install a pantograph, he claims it will be needed to boil the electric kettle.

He did but unfortunately I was out for those six days, sure look at what we got....

 

Eoin

Fab work.

A really beautiful piece of work. just the standard one expects from a man who builds tools preparatory to the main task.
