  1. Well, shed track will have to wait for tomorrow now Ended up finishing the bracing and adding extra sets of legs to the terminus. Is all beautifully level and rock solid now. It was irritating me before that some stock would roll so now I can drop any item onto any part of the track and it wont roll away I also used up 50 cable ties and tie anchors tidying the cable (yes, I am OTT and OCD )
  2. As a wise man once told me, will anyone really notice at a scale 70mph?
  3. http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/forumdisplay.php/43-Wheel-Tappers-Videos Moderated / managed by wiggy on the forum, a new area added to discuss and showcase these excellent videos.
  4. and here is one of Davids 2600's in the same livery
  5. Here is the recent Bachmann / Irish Still available in shops
  6. David Kavanaghs models are amazing, I have several and they are perfect runners, absolute replicas of the prototype. It's amazing the difference in gauge when they sit alongside british stock!
  7. Cheers Rich! They are great motors - do a stunning job and sort the frogs perfectly, and i've still got lots of options to plug in signals to them
  8. Looks like a Windhof MPV in IE colours?
  9. hehe, sorted the bogie wagons Having sat calmly with a cuppa this morning and watched them very closely going slow over the throat - it was the bloody couplers! The hanging bar was catching on the frogs / guard rails on the points. A little surgery and they are grand I plan to use kadees entirely in time, so that will help further even All's well that ends well Managed to also physically fit another 12 cobalt motors today and cut the shed track to size... maybe tomorrow I'll get the shed area wired and glues and start on the motor bus!
  10. Looks good tho - a nice scenic break diagonally across the tracks on the left and it would really look well!
  11. Yep, I mean that you will have access to all sides (as humans can't reach across 4 feet to get to derailed stock, etc )
  12. I like it! My only concern is the width - will the layout be free standing in the middle of the room? The bay looks long enough to happily take a 141, 2 cravens and a gen van, will be nice (or a 2 car dmu, etc) Inbound trains will have to enter the station on the wrong road, maybe look at putting the crossover at the top into the curve at the station?
  13. They are ok on the straights Rich, it's just on points they've a problem I'm hoping to get time tomorrow to swap out the wheels for new metals ones and try that first
