Love this Layout! Keep em coming lad!

MUST.....NOT.....BUY.....ANY....MORE......LOCO'S, Ahhhhhhhhhh it's too tempting!!!!! Dam you on line shopping!!

Great stuff!! There's hope for those Lima's yet!

Wow! Brilliant Glenderg, is it for sale by any chance?????

When she asks how much, whatever price you paid, tell her it cost half that amount....they still go off on onr but if Mrs Rebelred ever found out i would be in my negative equity Dog house!!!! She also refers to them as 'toys' which annoys me no end!!

What the Bos man said- more please! Has the making of some layout!

I love buying cars & model rail so im f@*ked either way!

Super work Tom, you're flying through them!

Great job Anto, was gonna say it's like a factory finish but........ er....

Yer man still thinks he's in the last decade with that price.....

Nice Job Scottie!!!! Looks fab

Best of luck with it TTC, i always loved looking at your posts on your wonderful layout, im sure the next one will be even better!

As requested by DiveController, here is the 'Supertrain' orange against my Loco 187 ( The only one that's not weathered!) The shade of oranges are a near perfect match which makes these much criticised coaches ideal for converting into the 'Intercity' Livery. Hope this helps you Kev.

They should be 3 scale inches or 1mm in 00 ;-)

That's what I meant, thanks Glenderg!!

Ahh thats where i have been going wrong.. iv been trying to paint mine lol

 

What size are they?

I think they are 0.3mm lines from Railtec Chevron if i remember correctly, way easier than painting lines- trust me!!

That is one beautiful Rake? How did you get your white lines so perfect.. are they transfers?

Thanks Chevron, the white lines are from Railtec.

That looks the business George, would love to have that loco!! Great work!!

Thanks Kevin, I prefer my coaches to be heavily weathered along the bogies & coach ends with a small bit on the roof line while keeping the sides clean. That's the way most IE stock was kept as they were washed by driving them through a train wash as opposed to being powerwashed by hand hence why they were so dirty in those areas mentioned. Weathering was done superbly by Georgeconna.

& I turned a 'Supertrain' Mark 2 EGV into 'Intercity' livery. ...

Took some pictures of my Mark 2's in Day time to show the weathering on them in better light....

Cheers lads, resolution is crap on these photos, will try & take some photos out in the day light to show the weathering off better.

TTC, i don't think there is any loco shed in the land of modelling/real life that's busier than Tara Shed!!!!

Never been much of a steam fan but you might have just converted me!

Can't wait to see this one when it's finished, looks like it's going to be really authentic, great job!

Lovely Job as usual Ant

I haven't been doing much modelling lately for various reasons including work & kids on mid-term but got my 5 Mark II 'Galway' coaches back from weathering, love the results, here are a few shots of them with the River Corrib herself! Apologies for the poor resolution, light in the Attic isn't great!
