Thanks as always for the comments John-r, much appreciated. Cheers Noel. Plan is to have them heavily weathered when finished. They were generally manky when in service, so hoping to achieve that look when done.

Managed to grab an hour or two over the last couple of evenings to continue on with the barriers. Painting of the flats is now finished and I've also made a start on weathering the tanks. Getting there slowly but surely

Very nice Robert. Really like the one carrying the current logo, you'll always find one or two of those mixed in a rake so always nice to have.

Great to see you back posting some work again richrua. Looking forward to watching this progress.

Same here, handrails would be handy to have, and definitely spare horns. They either end up bent or just disappear altogether.

Track looks great, love the groundwork around the siding also.

Flawless piece of work Robert. Very impressive.

No work done on these since late July, so I made a long overdue return to the barrier wagons during the week. Nearly there now , just the decals to be applied to the tanks and the flats still need a couple of coats of paint. Once that's sorted its on to the Ammonias.

Lovely shots as always. Great to see a full liner when there's so little freight about nowadays. -
Love it Noel

I bought the EGV from the original batch and added the white lining so i could run it with my IE Mk2's, and to be honest i can't tell the difference when there sitting beside each other. Looking at the pics Railer posted the problem with the black line seems to be sorted but the shade of orange looks no darker to me than it did previously.

Cheers John-r, colour is Humbrol 53 Gun metal metallic.

A couple of pics of the cages and kegs now finished. Perfect for in and around a yard or even better on a bogie flat. I think I'll be getting myself some more of these.

So you're not ruling it out as a possibility Fran

Made a start on these cages and kegs this morning. Another great little kit from SSM and so easy to work on. One down, 5 to go.
-
Thanks John-r. I suppose the right way when it comes to brass is to solder, but superglue does the job for me and it hasn't let me down yet. Cheers JB, much appreciated.

Got going on these beauties from SSM a couple of weeks ago. Just finished are the two 42' flats which will form the barrier wagons. Plenty of cutting, bending and filing with these, but when they start to take shape they really are worth the work. With the flats ready it was on to the cradles for the tanks, and in the background are the bogies for the Ammonia wagons.

CIE wouldn't be my preferred era so I consider myself extremely lucky with the releases to date. When you look at the fantastic models now available thanks to the IRM lads you can see why anyone modelling the CIE period would want a piece of the action. These decisions have to make good business sense to be viable, that's just the way of the world unfortunately. Hopefully there's enough interest so the lads can crack on and get these produced for the CIE fans. I'll be sticking with my IE Ploughs which I have ordered and can't wait to get my hands on.

Good to see you back at it Tony, really like the look of that. Looking forward to watching this progress now.

Very handy solution Eoin, as you say it's always the tin of paint your looking for that's buried at the bottom of the storage box.
-
Very tidy work. They'll easily pass the two foot rule.
-
Adding the extension was a good idea Tony. Gave you that extra bit of space needed which always helps. Really like the angle of the shed, it works well rather having it pushed into the corner running flush against the wall.
