  1. UTA painted all their vehicles green. CIE opted to go for black and tan. Just saying lol
  2. I have seen Drew's models, both at Cultra and in the top floor of his house on the Lisburn Road. Nice and all as the Cultra display is, Drew's models were best seen in operation at his Tuesday night operating sessions. Sadly those days are now just a memory. RIP Drew.
  3. Would look good repainted in BR colours lol

  5. I suppose 800 would take up too much space in Cork station concourse

  7. Got a prompt reply to my e mail. Order placed and kit received. Now the ball is in my court to build it. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
  8. Direct question to @connollystn What are the inaccuracies? I don't see any "obvious inaccuracies"
  9. Thanks. E mail sent.
  10. I'm coming late into this thread but I am looking for one of these brake van kits. Are they still available?
  11. Well done to Robert for designing this product and well done to Irish Railway Models for undertaking its manufacturer. Hope both parties have a clear agreement with each other to ensure a smooth passage to market! Looking forward to this product for my junction station where I will deploy one that serves four platform roads (three staircases).
  12. I'll pass on the sprouts lol I'll keep an eye out next month in case you have left over Easter eggs!
  13. Is this still available? Or did it walk off on its own lol.
  14. Do I detect crossed wires/understanding?
  15. I have also seen blue NIR Hunslet hauled ferts.
  16. I have ordered my ferts. Does anyone make a suitable load for these
  17. Thats a great picture. Thanks for sharing.
  18. Are there any pictures of St Ann's station near Tower, at the entrance to the Hydro farm? I'm interested because I lived on the Hydro site 2000 to 2002.
  19. Language dear boy. lol Seriously. I am too late for the poll but my vote woukd be the ivory with Irish Cement logo. Best wishes whatever you make. Colin
  20. The code number is the height of the rail measured in thousanths of an inch. Therefore code 100 = 100/1000 inch high (one tenth of an inch). This scales out as 7.62" in 4mm scale. Code 75 = 75/1000 inch high (Slightly more than one thirteenth of an inch high) This scales out at 5.7" in 4mm scale. Perhaps someone can advise the actual height of prototype rail for comparison.
