  1. Welcome Steve! Have you ever done the wasp-stripes for the weedspray panels?
  2. Fair play Seamus - beat me to it As the man says, and stunning job they are too Highly recommended and really bring the cravens to life
  3. lol - is there any other kind ? 25,35,45,55,65,75,85 - I reckon we're all as bad
  4. My plan (for Amiens Street) is to get it electrically functional once all is laid. My priority is reliable running (hence the number of droppers and wiring). Once done, I plan to weather and paint the track, lay the 'hard' stuff, like platforms, hard standings, etc, and place all the buildings. Then get stuck into ballasting and some green stuff
  5. Very boring Especially when the 'main station' can just about accept a 141 and two cravens Great fun to build though, and great experience
  6. Cheers lads, the idea was a basic roundy for the lads, which I could use to experiment and gain some experience with - highly recommended It gave me a much clearer idea of what i wanted, and what was possible
  7. No photos again today tho, the boys are on mid term so the layouts been covered in rakes of thomas and pals Will get a little time tomorrow and hope to dropper and lay the per way sidings and a bit more throat, and start into the main shed area
  8. No They can alternate running the enterprise platform
  9. I have a repainted voyager rake in enterprise livery, and a MK3 gen van likewise... will do until I get David's set also
  10. Cheers Declan - 1 gone, 1 remains
  11. Now demolished to make more room for Amiens Street, here are some shots of a 6x4 tailchaser I built to experiment and for the kids
  12. Full details http://irishrailmodels.com/2012/01/19/141-class-161/ I've one of these, mint, new in a box it's never been removed from, that is surplus to requirements.

  14. I was about to ask whats wrong with the singing before I realised the locos were singing!!
  15. [video=youtube;30syt-JYC8M]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30syt-JYC8M
  16. 229 awaits its next duty (weathering from RetroHerbie at modelshopbelfast )
  17. Which loco is it? Some of the ones I have with flywheel motors connect to the bogies via 'power rods'. These rods can become disconnected from the motor if the box gets knocked about, and the symptom is usually exactly what you describe. Pry off / unscrew the body and take a peek - you should see the connections are off / loose. Should be a simple enough job to pop them back into place and you'll be underway again
  18. Looks good - what radius / size points are you using in the plan? The Bachmann sheds are stunning, and could look well as the backdrop to your station - do you plan a fueling port, or what facilities at the depot?
  19. Fantastic!! Huge range of stock too!! Any more detail photos?
