Another brilliant scene well thought out as always,love the updates from Tara Junction.

Nice job Eamonn,might try a couple of the An Post vans myself it looks great.Good to see your work back where it belongs

Coming along nicely,beautiful piece of work.

That rust looks so good, I wouldn't 'spoil' it with a load of ballast. Nice job!

Lovely work Jason, the rust looks so real.

Agreed, the inside of that wagon is verisimilitude at its finest.

Thanks lads much appreciated:tumbsup:

Excellent collection of pics,thanks for posting

Looks fantastic Jason, really like the rust effect.

Cheers Harry,thanks for the positive comments as always

Brilliant work! Absolutely superb.

Thanks alot Nelson.

This is one of my Bachmann ballast wagons which I resprayed a while back to use with my NIR locos.Im not sure why but I had this in general chat at the time so I thought id stick it up on this thread instead,reason being I'm going to make a start on the remaining wagons that I never bothered to finish back then.Even though ive put a bit of work into weathering the interior I think I'll add a ballast load to each as well instead of running them empty.

Just wondering are there likely to be many more 201 model variants released? They don't seem to be the hottest selling GMs, had been well covered since the Lima MMs, and there seems to be very little RTR stock available in the market for them to haul (i.e. passenger stock mk3, mk4, DD, etc).

Very good point,i think with the next batch all liveries will be covered but theirs actually very little stock for them to haul.

Area looks cracking,and a fine lineup of locos to go with it.

Pressed into service regardless of the additional cost, pressed out of service regardless ......

Spot on,that sums up the story of the 201s in one go.

Yes i use the humbrol washes and powders alot myself,they definitely add to making the model look more realistic.

Great job Eamonn,I've a few these to do myself,if i get them looking any way as good as that Il be happy enough.

It should just slide off after you take them out.

Did you take the 4 screws from under the axle's or the fuel tank?

Beautiful work Daryl,excellent finish with the paint job and transfers,worth all the work when you see it completed.

Superb work lads.If id have known this was coming down the line i wouldn't have picked up the lump of kits i have here from early last year.No matter how much work i put into them they will never look as good as this does☹

Nice work Daryl,it looks great.

Very nice,lovely stock especially the weed sprayer it looks great

Looks great,cracking detail.

Very nice,goes to show what can be done for little or no expense.

Very nice,really starting to take shape now.Looking forward to seeing it finished.

That area is fantastic,the concrete is so realistic looking,love it.

Cheers lads,thanks for the comments as always.

I hit the shed for an hour yesterday evening to finish off the SSM level crossing.I have to say i really enjoyed working on this kit.Its a really nice addition to any irish themed layout.Heres a couple of pics.
