If Glenderg could knock up an oul canopy for the station building, she'd be spectacular Lovely work lads - it and the pub are brilliant additions to the ever growing Irish scene!

Be still me beating heart!!! You've captured already the feel of the place and as for n - my hat is off to you and your eyesight Sir!

I was just drooling over it myself ! Didn't appreciate how interesting the rails were in the early 90's

You can sometimes find lima motors on ebay for a few quid too...

Looking stunning!!! The pace of work is mind boggling (and guilt inspiring )

The videos look impressive, but ripping up vast sections of laid mainline isnt an option for most people

Cost effective remotor options for the Lima 201

There's an old thread here about it, now gone to the big layout in the sky http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/232-Ye-Olde-Kids-Layout -
Now that looks just gorgeous!! Lovely bright room - stunning benchwork and oooodles of potential!

Interesting alternative to adding weight to the loco!
-
Ah - Just stunning!!!

I've a whitemetal 121, not motorised so she can 'double' with the 141s... Still, you have to make sure she's well tucked behind so you can't see the comparison

I seem to recall Paddy Murphy having a hand in it.. Great 'fun' sets - prototype be damned
-
Just brilliant What a treat!

We're spoiled with Paddy's work, but with a little attention the old limas scrub up well ! Here's 217 on the old layout.. She'll still have a place on Amiens, tho probably it will be on a 'sound barrier' line than in active service

The nem coupler is a specific design - you need to squeeze the end of the coupler that's sticking out behind the nem socket, the entire coupler then should slide out with next to no force required. You can see from this image, how the coupler fits into the socket, then the two 'prongs' open out to hold it in place. Squeezing the prongs together should release the coupler.

Very nice - did you drill the nem pocket and simply screw in the kadee 20?
-
To help with lock, you can remove the springs from the buffers, or ensure the 'face' of the kadee is lined up with the buffer when extended. That way you should be clear for lock!

Sounds like lovely work Riversuir! Any chance of a photo? -
nasty! Is such a case, I'd be inclined to super glue the kadee to the underside of the craven nem pocket.
