Yes they are well worth it. Great photos.

That is great lads thanks.

These little books are available in the cheap bookshop in Castle Court belfast. A couple of quid each.

Hello folks.

Wanted:

Murphy Models 071.

Any CIE/IR/IE livery, but would give preference to the black and silver.

Not too worried about minor flaws if the price is right. Cash waiting because I think I deserve it!

I'll take it. With postage

Ok. I just thought the little slope near the cab wasn't so pronounced as usual. Trick of the eye...

Is it me or does this 121 look a little different?

Thanks folks. A bit to go yet. Buffer beams. It is amazing what a lick of paint can do.

How do you guys do stripes or lining in carriages etc?

For a context -

the yellow stripe on an RPSI

or

the white stripes between the orange and black on the Inter City coaches.

any advice appreciated. Total amateur at painting/spraying.

Gents!

 

The 42' will be out first, but with sufficient interest (i.e. money where the mouth is) I will do the 62'9"...and stanchions.

 

The 42' conversion has been formally added to the worklist.

hi folks

any idea what width those side support poles would be on the timber wagons?

182 drags some mk2 s to the respray yard. Well just pretend...... I am a little impatient.

I notice there is a visual similarity between a br dean goods and a J15. Has anyone ever tried a conversion or am i way off ?

461 did the honours it seems!

aw.. I waited for ages at Derriaghy to get a look. But I had to get beack to work before it came. next time...

any word on this? Is it running to the posted schedule but with diesel?

gonna try the basic black with the white panel . Saw a few photos like that. If i m feeling confidend i might add the tan.

A little more and a splash of primer

Some slight progress...

This is wonderful. The backgrounds are wonderfully 'local' . I like how it is both highly detailed but also unfussy if you know what I mean.

I got a little bored of a simple oval. Saw some nice layouts on youtube with long sweeping tracks and nice long trains. Reckon that is the way to go. So it is time to annex some attic land and extend as much as i can before i do any more scenery.!

brilliant thanks

thanks lads. what paints should I use ? Not being lazy but I am colour blind so specific paint names and numbers would be useful. thanks for all the advice :-)

Thanks for that. Picked up three of them cheap but without any info as to what they were. I might go for RPSI as I have an RPSI preserved version - the 141 - to pull them.

hi folks

is this any use as a carriage respray ? not sure what 'mark' it is sorry
