No not me at all, but I can see why you might think it.

Great wagons , they look great in transit or sitting in a siding. I have four from the last time, so I'm glad of a chance to grab a couple more . Nice models, another unique wagon. I wonder could I run a mixed rake of a couple of blues / oxides. Good stuff
-
Good job guys. There might be no rush really for some people - seeing as I've just spent a couple of days admiring the box and the booklet. I haven't even taken the loco out yet lol lol -
My goodness. Marvellous stuff. Like others have said I might order another one! I quite like the IR supertrain for some reason.

Hi folks, made some slight changes to the layout in order to extend it in the shed, but it still can function as a seperate 'module' . I've picked up a 121 and I've added a station area. The boards are shallow, hence the low scenic amount, but most of all it works. I have a detachable loop that runs outside the shed for when it's not raining !
-
Ah ok , thanks Noel. I notice my locos take an extra little bit of time to stop as opposed to a DC dead stop, I wonder have I inadvertently turned on momentum
-
Hi Noel, I know I could just dig out the manual to find out, but what is the actual function of the Momentum button? I've always thought it has been placed in a very prominent position on the controller.
-
Yes the 201 are also an excellent model. I have only one and I happened to run it yesterday. So smooth and powerful too.

Murphy models 121 other chips
richrua replied to richrua's question in DCC, Electrics and Electronics
Thanks very much Noel, I have a 121 on it's way, but the decoders are out of stock. Means if it gets here tomorrow I can have a test run over Christmas , -
Hi folks, apologies if this has been asked before, I searched up but couldn't find it. I know it's not recommended but do any other 21 pin recorders fit a mm 121 ?
-
Love it! That looks great. Lockdown allowed me to build a small shed/workshop/potting shed to keep my micro layout in. I had an old double glazed window and apart from the roof panels, was able to build it with wood I had about , including old fence panels. I'm planning a small outdoor extension to the micro , to add a little more running space. I'll put some pics up soon , but I've actually found myself busier lately !

I happened to watch both other Galway Gen Van items . Perhaps I did let my one go for too little , they could have got it for £60 less than these... . Here is a shot of the bidding on both
-
Same two bidders as the last galway gen. I put one on myself, it sold for decent money (to fund a guinness liner pack for meself :-)) but it did not attract these two bidders, so sold for much less. (Although still a lot more than my original purchase price so I'm happy believe me!) Just wondering, though.....
-
Gen Vans appear to be out of stock everywhere, perhaps leading to the higher prices
-
I noticed these auctions too. It seems a little odd.
-
Grand, thanks
-
With the dough I've saved on diesel over the past two months I can grab one of these. Just curious, is there a vague release date for the various liveries? That'll help me budget.
-
Looking great already !
-
Thanks David, still a lot of neatening up to be done of course, but that's the basis, and most importantly I have a working model with point motors etc - being able to just flip the small board to fit them was great!!! I am going to make another 'scene' on the same size board, which I can join in a modular fashion to either side of this one. I'm just delighted that it works well and I can now get the balance right between build and operation! It is also interesting how much you can do with 3ft x 8" .

Clear your closets! Wanted: Scenecraft Irish Outline
richrua replied to DiveController's topic in For Sale or Wanted
I did indeed. Made a very nice model, I'll take a pic tomorrow. I know they used to do s good few kits . I haven't been on the pulse of the scene for a year, so I dont know if they are still active -
Excuse the test wagons! I ballasted the track and added the basic scenic details , I dont plan to add much more as keep it simple is my new motto so that I actually achieve a functioning railway !
-
I like the black and silver, also the grey. There I said it! (Dont get me wrong though, orange and black is just Irish and that's that)
