    Hello Dave Wrenneire. . I got a lovely craven from you today at Bangor but I meant to also ask you if you had any 141 s in an IR livery ? Working towards getting one next month maybe

    hello. I put a digitrax sound chip into an a class and also a 141. I cant remember right now which one but it was a budget preloaded chip that happened to have the same engine as was fitted to the 141 s . (american) the horn obviously is all wrong. I intended to visit Downpatrick on the modellers open day and record some sounds to fix it up, but couldnt go in the end and pretty much forgot about it till i saw this post !!! I just used an adapter lead to feed from the 21 pin. I got a little power drain but never got to the bottom of it.

    wowsers. Count me in. Any idea when abouts ? Looks like I'll have to dip into the 121 savings fund again...

    Quick questionay ? When the IE plug socket logo came out , was there a while when IE and IR logo trains ran together or was the change quick ?

    I love this. The detail is super and the ballast is great. Lots of little details but also a great feeling of space.

    A video I put together of some running on the Kingscourt branch. A standard two carriage train for passengers is pure fiction , in my world passenger services clung on to serve a commuter population. https://youtu.be/qg8mwz9TC8Q

    hello there. the dcc concepts solenoid unit makes the electrics a lot easier. feeds straight off bus and the motors run through my NCE handset. less wires running all over the place. The woolie is grand. I will be getting the rpsi coach set as i plan to have her run as a made-up preserved loco alongside the more modern shtuff.

    precious little actual modelling in such a long time. I did acquire a dcc concepts unit for switching points. Also have wired up my distant signal to it. All control from handset. Great for play !!!!

    very very useful thank you ! i have a home and a distant. I think I will put them in for now until i find another spot for them, then i ll get some SSM ones
  19. richrua
    thanks folks ! seems my purchase of a working distant is a wee bit overkill so... I hope to grab some SSM signals at some point when i am feeling nifty and nimble and confident to make em. At the mo I am even having bother with basic soldering for some reason!

    A large number of UK shops and suppliers won't ship to ROI or Southern Ireland !!!! As they often call it . why I don't know.

    Hi friends, Beannachtaí na féile Padraig oraibh go léir! Quick question! I am sticking in a couple of signals. I am using the lower quadrant (GWR) type from dapol as I am told they resemble Irish signals. Were small level crossings (single line small road - eg Kinscourt branch) protected with both distant and home signals?

    So, not Irish, but a nice little cabin anyway. Passable to my eye to many an Irish cabin. £8.30 from Hattons. Could not resist.
  23. richrua
    That is a superb model conversion. How come the Irish version had rivets visible but Lms ones didn't ?
  24. richrua
    yes I have had great service from digitrains and wickness. Also have a look at these guys too, very good. http://www.coastaldcc.co.uk/products/nce/power-cab
