Lots of little treasures there. And can bid online as well.
I'd like to know the how the "90" loco plate is up for auction.
I remember back in 1984 as part of the GSRPS when she was being moved off the platform at Mallow being very disconcerted about gauges and other items being removed ostensibly for "restoration" in a very haphazard fashion.
Lovely looking wagons. I don't doubt the blood, sweat, tears, beer, late night Maxwell House, Red Bull and Twenty Majors that fuelled the eventual arrival of these little puppies.
To quote the old Amstel ad
"This is going to be great!"
How about this?
1. Undercoat the coach with white primer.
2. Mask the white with 2mm masking tape.
3. Spray the tan.
4. Mask the tan and spray the black on the side & roof
5. Remove all masking tape
6. (optional) Spray Clear Satin varnish for that "fresh from the Inchicore wash" look.
Wow, a fine looking kit. Definitely interested in one John. Jeremy's work is astoundingly good...as always!
Lost wax brass work is always nice too.
Well done.
Folks,
I am giving serious consideration to a comprehensive Hi-Bee kitbashing pack
-NS buffet split windows etches
-the three NS observation carriage windows on a half etched backplate to simplify scratchbuilding
-decals for coaches and the loco
-full set of nickle silver county nameplates
Cost should be c.€45 or €62 including the MK3 side etches
Let me know if you're interested.
