  1. I remember that melt Myers in an Irishman's Diary pontificating about how the Dart was costing £2.20 for every £1 collected in fares, and so should be shut down. It gave me a great understanding of his complete lack of understanding. The head of the project was on Matt Cooper last week and covered off the project very well and didn't lose her cool as Matt did his manufactured "common man on the street" questions. It was a very poor interview from his persective, negative, snarky and patronising. A far cry from the gushing bonhomie he normally indulges in with his fav. contributors.
  2. Jays lads, did none of you spot this little gem hidden in the cleaning instructions Wrenn posted above? Fr. Ted territory.

    Is 186 out of commission for good now? I was just reading the RPSI website and see that it classed as a museum piece.
  6. Well done lads, hard work well rewarded.
  7. Noel, still being worked on, but the "Real Job" has seriously eaten into down time. I'll keep you updated.
  8. They are particularly designed for the Hornby Mk3s
  9. Oh very nice lads. Cat amongst the pigeons, methinks. It's a pity you don't release it as a kit, great fun glueing that together!
  10. I should hope so! 1976 £1 = 2017 €13.50 Plenty drinking in that.
  11. Would still love in in 1/76th...sigh.
  12. Very nice, if only it was in OO gauge.
  13. Eamon, I like your foam model holder, very practical.
  14. that's my photograph, taken through the windscreen back in '04 :). You'll note that the small filling station building at the base of the middle pillar is still extant at the time, though long closed. It has been demolished since.
  15. Must concur. Lovely work.
  16. That is violently horrific.
  17. Some of the big retailers this Christmas didn't even appear to have a single OO train set available in their 200 page catalogue.
  18. A diluted vote? Same thing happened 50 years ago, so this time which one is Penny Lane and the other Strawberry Fields??
  19. If you're looking for ancillary white metal components, let me know, as I do the T2, S, V class locos.
  20. So you can effectively say you are Mr O'Hornby (or Clann na hIRMe) That's something to be fierce proud of. Well done lads!
  21. There's no topping that classic 50's cheesecake, so I'll just add my wishes to you for Yuletide cheer and a prosperous New Year.
  22. c. half an inch to scale? FFS, absolutely nothing.
  23. If I may quote Thomas the Tank..."Shiny and Clean.....Shiny and Clean!!!"
  24. Dedication man, dedication.
