  1. I guess the Limas are heading for the shelf so
  2. Not worth the effort? I've heard mixed reviews of the model torque too...
  3. Just came across this http://www.diesel-trains.co.uk/shop.html Specifically this one, suitable for the Lima 201 for just £12.50
  4. Lovely work ! I'd disable any of the youtube / stability / options on upload as they tend to make the videos give you motion sickness!
  5. The Murphy release can still be found, albeit they tend to be a little pricey now given the rarity and small run...
  6. I've seen costs of £200 per square foot for layout building to a 'moderate' standard. If you want exhibition/museum grade, keep adding...
  7. I think lots of modelers would echo that but the economics have to work I guess. Even a twin pack of standards would likely sell very well.
  8. In my experience the best sound reduction is achieved with ballasted foam underlay. Gauge master/noch make excellent versions in both grey and brown ballast. Followed by woodlands scenics foam and copydex fixed ballast. Foam or cork with Pva set ballast is in my opinion just about the same as ballasting right into the baseboard from a sound point of view but you do get the elevation and ballast shoulder.
  9. Exquisite - love the wet, drizzely, irishness of it all!! Stunning work!
  10. Lovely shots - the GM's look well at home on the valley!

  17. Lol, I won't mention that I used the restart to update NginX, Varnishd and tweak the caching settings then so ;p Cheers lads Back to the layout I should go!!
  18. All done
  19. There might be a few minutes here and there of impact to the site as I patch the OS to centOS 6.5 and update some software!

    Google says the following: The final shot is from Bevan Price. Taken at Tuam in Ireland his pic shows locomotives B170 and B175 on a CIE (Córas Iompair Éireann) service at Tuam. Bevan's pic was taken on 12th June 1977. CIE is responsible for the majority of public transport in Ireland.
