Not a big update, got the foam for the shed glued down, tried shunting the MIR bogie cements ---- oh dear gods!! Anyone recommend replacement bogies / wheels for these so they can actually function as an item of stock rather than scenery
-
There was mention a while back of a possible DART model being produced by you guys. Can you comment on the rumour? Any plans?!
-
To help draw attention to the suppliers, manufacturers and service providers now actively using the site Shops & Services Has been added to the Top Navigation, linking to http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/forumdisplay.php/10-Shops-Manufacturers-amp-Services

I've added a 'Shops & Services' menu to the Top navigation to help draw attention to it - hope it helps a bit ! (ps: would you like a subforum for your own fantastic wares?)
-
Hey Glenderg, You can see the 'commercial mini forum' here http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/forumdisplay.php/10-Shops-Manufacturers-amp-Services

Bloody Fantastic!!! Well done lads!!
-
Georgeconna now has an area under Services / Wonderful Weathering!
-
Snap Though it's great to finish out the other MK2 rakes too
-
Excellent!! Especially the Galway! Can finish off a few mkii rakes now :)
-
Very smart! More photos please!
-
She gets around that low loader

For those who asked, the gantry is this Ratio Kit http://www.modelrailwayslimited.com/model-railways/Ratio-00-Trackside-Series-Overhead-Traversing-Crane.html

Fantastic!! Looks the business!

Cheers! I've years of work to do on it, have barely made it down just the first 20 foot of boards so far

-
Having said that, in the last three weeks, loads of stock and locos have 'escaped' their boxes onto Amiens Street - so much so that I have to shunt them into the terminus to make way for work
-
Cheers Rich - you're very kind! I focus on the bits i know I can do well, like the wiring and shortly, computer control etc. If anyone wants a closer look at anything I've botched together, more photos, etc, just let me know! Another few weeks and I will hopefully have the entire terminus and yards fully operation, wired up, all the motors in and basic computer and route control working. To be honest, without computer route control, trying to negotiate that station throat would be a disaster
-
Maybe if I play my card's right
-
Cheers Herbie - entire focus is on operating for now, so most of the work is under the board Next week I'll fit block circuit breaks, finally set up the DPDT switch for the programming track, and install a new bus for the motors, and a 12V DC bus for lighting (with periodic switch panels) ! Soldering every single track piece is slowing me down, but will hopefully be worth it - I've perfect voltage in every single inch of the layout so far, so operations should be 'less' stressful
-
Looking absolutely stunning :)
-
They do Big push next week to get the track down under it :):):) Thanks again !! Highly recommended folks!!
-
Fascinating to watch!! Amazing feat of engineering!
-
Bit of a pictorial update this: I am going to replace the flouro tubes in the attic with 'daylight' LED lighting, and much more of it - as you can see from the pics, the lighting is dreadful for photography (albeit with an iPhone too!) Main news is full operation now on everything laid, the single running shed will now be used as a little wagon works, and a hoist has been installed out front. A small gantry crane is being tested for the freight roads - oh, and the engine shed has ARRIVED!! (and trust me, these photos don't some close to doing it justice!) If you want something done - talk to Glenderg on the forums!!
-
I've used him before too for odd spares - good lad.
