I must say Nelson you have a real skill in painting and weathering. I think I saw these spoil wagons on one of the Irish Railway dvds?

Very nice. I was thinking of trying one of these brass kits. Are they tricky? Do you have to solder them together?

I know .... I thought about wandering up to people and introducing myself, but being a quiet enough type I didn't! It was good to see so many people interested! I forgot to nip back and buy a bottle of that A Class Real Ale!!!! -

Yep. I was there too. Great day out. Super to see all of the locos and hear all for real. -

i wonder would the St Paddy body be worth anything? these are the railroad range but dcc ready. actually pretty good for 40 quid. perfect for AClass . thanks to enniscorthy man fir the advice
-
thanks noel btw!

I am going to convert my Silver Fox A class to dcc using this as the chassis. As recommended by enniscorthy man. The lima chassis motor i got was so poor compared to modern machines. what a difference 30 years makes! Almost seems a shame to chop this one. it is in good nick for a second hander.

yes i was looking at the hornby ones. To me the 071 should come with sound on board. They have everything else!

No, not a sound bag of chips, but the other kind. Now that I have managed to make a leap of thirty years from dc to dcc, I am a bit disappointed that sound chips are so dear. It is great that the 071 s come with a pre-installed speaker. Good idea - saves us a bit of hassle. I wonder will the next batch of locos come with on board sound? seems like a logical step. I would say that an 071 or 201 with pre-installed sound would sell very well, especially if the cost was a wee bit lower than separate sound chip and loco.
