Are you looking for photographs for modelling purposes, or an understanding of how signalling works??

All these Aliases, tis like a Dating site!!

I have that bus already, thanks anyway.

Just to clear up its €60 for the both of them

2 Dublin Bus for sale, both are missing drivers wing mirror ( the wife's handywork!) But are otherwise perfect, I don't seem to have the box off the 'bendybus' Double Decker is a Limited Edition Alexander ALX400 bodied Denis Trident, the other is Volvo Wright Artic (AW3) €60 for both plus postage or I'd consider an exchange for other Bus Eireann or IE models.

I sent him a PM 2 weeks ago with an offer & my contact details, still hasn't acknowledged it.

Looks class, weathered n all! , I love the Mark IV behind it, did you make that yourself?

Is that a re-spray TTC? She looks darker than the models on sale and more realistic.Those Loco's just don't look right colour wise maybe they just need a bit of subtle weathering like yours, Beautiful finish!

Thanks Dave, appreciate that

My worry is as ye all know is that this is an expensive hobby & any mistakes can be very costly so I'd like to have all the information to hand before I'd attempt anything that can't be undone.i also have 2 toddlers running riot so it's very hard to watch & retain info on the Internet,I don't know does that make sense to anyone else but I find I can take a book anywhere & study it.it would only be a guide anyway.as to getting advise on forums, i agree lads here are fantastic & very helpful. I would always ask their advice before I'd start anything but I need to understand & have a picture in my head first before I'd ask.

Can anyone recommend the best book that shows you all the tricks & tips on how to make a layout, like landscaping, scenery, track bedding etc... im also looking for one on how to do weathering aswell, I should state that im a complete novice so nothing too complicated please!!

I second that!!!!

The biggest compliment I can give you is its exactly the view I get from the Cab when driving over Waterstreet Bridge towards Myrtlehill Crossing, Stunning!!!

Tom, that's an understatement!!

Not the real deal, great attempt though.

It's surprising that nobody has brought out a Mark IV kit or RTR model yet, especially the Control Car. It would compliment the Murphy 201 models nicely.

Does anything come down in price these days!!! I'd better raid that fridge so!

Better start my secret stash of cash again & hope the missus doesn't find out!!!

Strange that it slipped through the vetting stage!!!

Hi Lads, I'm wondering if someone could clear something up for me, on the info leaflet that comes with the MM 141 class model loco, it says that IE ordered 27 of the 141 class Locosbut how come the model I have is 177??? That would make at least 36 Locos!!! Anyone clear this up??

A bit of white spirit & transfers of the Loco number that you want from Studio Scale Models & your sorted!!

whoo hoo!!!

Thanks Heirflick, weathering was done by George (Wonderful Weathering) the man is gifted!! I've tried many times to get him to take me on as his apprentice!!

Wow! You win! I'm building up a nice collection of coaching stock aswell,next up will be freight wagons (if I stop buying Loco's as an impulse buy!!) The only Loco's that I said I'll buy in future will be 233 in Enterprise & the much anticipated 121's if they ever come out!!! I'd love to have the space ( & time!) to build kits & a proper layout to run my stock,but at the moment I'm just collecting.some day soon!!!!
