  1. absolute stunners!
  2. The 141 is one of the best pullers out there, ironically much better able that the newer 201s!
  3. Looks great! I thought I was bad
  4. Contact us by phone From UK: 028 9066 5991 From ROI: 048 9066 5991 Should work, I spoke to Gareth there only yesterday myself...
  5. Love it Anthony - how did ye get the door open?!
  6. In practice not unless you were planning 2 or 3 coaches only. From testing I did a few years back only heavy modern diesels could manage 4% gradients. Go with 2% if you want most things to manage it will decent length trains. 2% means that you will climb 2 inches every 100 inches or eight feet will clear about a two inch climb. So you'd need a 16 foot climb to get 4 inches off the baseboard.
  7. Nice looking set for the money...
  8. Interesting progress but the pre-existing concerns would remain I suppose...
  9. Jawdroppingly good! That rev under load was fantastic!!!
  10. What a stunner! Beautiful job on the detailing and weathering!
  11. Or try them at lower voltages (1.5v for eg)
  12. Beautiful shot!! Absolutely beautiful! Those blue/cream cravens look fantastic I have to say! Imagining a full rake behind Merlin
  13. Anyone know the history of the model? Lovely looking piece
  14. Would I be right that the Irish MKIII's are wider than their UK cousins?
  15. Certainly an auspicious company with the means to do it right and the reach to put international bums on seats
  16. What a great set of pics! Better than the real thing!
  17. Is that for real? Sounds almost too good to be true!
  18. Sorry If I recall correctly. Sounds like they have short Kadees fitting which will draw the coaches at least two mm closer together than the factory couplers.
  19. You can snip the drop bar off or use close couplers that are not designed to uncouple at all and resemble the real thing a little better. You'll find details in that thread
  20. Most modern stock won't go round first radius any more. Kadee nem 18 and 19 iirc should do the trick.
  21. Fair play Tom! A few are on my 'to do' also!
  22. A work of art no less probably the best livery a craven yet carried?
