Yup, the original 201s were a fine model for their time, and to quote Haughey quoting Iago...."have done their state some service" I will always treasure mine. Particularly my Shannon 201 that cost a frakkin' fortune at the height of the insanity!

Ridiculous. The whole affair is just pitiful. Still, if EVER it gets resurrected, I would prefer to see it in a city centre location. Collins Barracks, Heuston Station, Templebar...wherever.

Well Richie, there's a brace of irish loco kits just waiting for new owners here at SSM HQ....
-
Heh! It can be a bit dim there alright. Still, it is a glorious venue, loads of layouts amongst a plethora of railwayorama. It really doesn't get any better.

My God, that is just fab. To have had that back in the day to travel from Newcastle West all the way to Listowel, up and through the Bearna gap.

I've finally got around to trying out a new etch prototype I've put together. It creates the higher ends of the irish pocket wagons when using the Dapol pocket wagon. It will be available as a kit-aid and includes the relevant transfers and handwheels and wire. The etch and decal pack will cost €18 and will do four wagons.

Steady now.... gently does it...

But it looks so plasticky. Nothing that some Matt acrylic airbrushing wouldn't sort out....

Wowza!!!

Both drivers powered? Give me strength. Beyond awesome. -
Wow, that looks very well, the gauge master would seem to be the better looking though.

Thanking you sir.

Anything I should pack in the goody bag to bring?....other than the Sulzer kits of course?
-
Delighted to read the feedback. Do let us know how the build goes.
-

Ohhh talk durty to me big boy. Seriously Richie, given some of your quality past oeuvres, I'd love to see you tackling this project, go on you know you want to!

They're not meant to. The link on all was a default on the page when set up and I have added detailed photos where possible. Regarding the four light, it's something to do with extra safety. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_railway_signals You can get the real one here: http://www.rivval.com/acatalog/LED_TECHNOLOGY__4_Aspect_Led_Ground_Signal.html

Popeye, just to let you know, Studio Scale Models has the full range of irish signals Semaphore: old and new style, including junction types. Light Signals: old and new style (1, 2 and 3 aspect) including old and new type direction feathers Ground signals: Mechanical and working electrical (3 and 4 aspect) Drop me a line if you need more detail

A4s magnificent work was done with cardboard???
-
That is a really well done job. Top class, everything is spot on!
-
Sound man richie. See you at the mrsi.
-
I remember someone highlighting that kit on one of the previous sites a while back. The rivetting detail (no sniggers down the back please) is very good. Well worth the money...if yah had it!
-
Murrayec, that is truly a fine model. The only comment I would make is that fully transparent windows would really make it amazing.
-
That is a serious bit of kit. I have promised myself that I would do something similiar with the 10-Arch over the Blackwater someday.... well there's my inspiration to get the finger out...
