    "The worry is when these Russian bombers come, there's no signal - they don't have their transponder, they are not 'squawking' - so in other words, only military radar pick them up." Isn't a radar a radar, you just have no seconadary ident on the signal....maybe they'll turn on their transponders at some point

    078 arrived yesterday. "That's lovely, honey"...........so I guess I'm luckier than most

    We had an operational P51 from the flight museam crash into the Gulf last year with pilot and passenger both lost..... stick with the A320. Actually these are real aircraft but their abilities are rarely seen except maybe on testing or an occasional airshow. Not sure if the the A320 can 'loop the loop' but Concorde certainly could

    It's a nice livery, represents Ireland well, although I think they needed to do something with the 'snooty nose' on the livery. I think the retro livery fits the A320 very well. It's a superb aircraft. Comparing it to the 22k is a little like comparing the superbly engineered 141 class to the old Lima 201s. This little baby is the original 5-pole double flywheel all wheel pickup version of FBW aircraft!

    What do you mean? I don't understand So should we be happy that he's supporting MM advancing to the next model (potentially) or unhappy that much stock has been sequestered into a private collection?
  6. DiveController
    Great collection. One of the mods would be able to shed some light on that, I'm sure

    Presumably the chip in the card went rogue …….. he-he

    Many posts on the site and Jim's post of the TGV really do confirm that the problem is the infrastructure;)
  11. DiveController
    Shame, there are not many in use form the original 34 or so are there?
  12. DiveController
    So, R. Bandon is out of action not being overhauled. Guess there would be little point with many of the 201s stored right now?

    Could any one let me know if there is model rail show in Ireland this autumn (bigger os better of course), in Munster if possible. Thinking of coming for a visit and would like to take one in if at all possible. f theres a calendar of events somewhere that I'm missing here, please let me know. Thanks in advance. Kevin

    I meant to ask this before but what actually happened to 230? I think I heard it was a fire also but not sure of the details
  15. DiveController
    Not sure how often these things fail, or whether it's something small despite the very smoky 'core breach'. Maybe time on the mechanics better spent than on that livery?
  16. DiveController
    haha! enjoyed that. you're not alone, IT

    I don't think they are open tomorrow, Sunday. Anyone having problems with their CC on the site? Tried several cards….. (no, I haven't maxed them out at Marks Models) EDIT: Forget the above. I'm in the same boat as Railer. Fraud alert in my overseas spending! Purchase made now

    Hi Yankho, I need to presume that you are located in MI and interested in HO or OO modeling from your handle and the fact that you joined this site. I'll be back on later (same time zone) These resources section is a good place to start http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/content.php/313-locomotives This is one of the larger supplier of Irish locos and stock, lots more in the manufacturers section of the site http://www.murphymodels.com US distributor of these in TX http://models11.net

    Dave, how much does that ecos system ballpark at? Any tips for where it might be found most economically? Looked at website but don't have prices. And it addition to the main command station you would need as many boosters as the layout requires plus Cabs… Did I miss any other costs for the system?
  20. DiveController
    EDIT: Didn't see Dhu Varren's post. My question is a moot point!
  21. DiveController
    Multi-gauge lines already exist (though not here). Sorry Harry

    Fran, I don't think we're disagreeing as much as you think. I agree with you that it is best to go directly to the head of the problem. That's what I usually do, believe you me. I think MM is well aware of the issue, that's all and our opinions may differ there. No more to be said on the matter now, I agree. I hope that more good models coaches come from MM and a 121, a succession within MM if that's possible/necessary or another vendor to fill that niche if necessary. I love these models in general as is the case with most or all on this site, I suspect.
  23. DiveController
    Absolutely agree!!
  24. DiveController
    It's not all the stock, best guess less than a third of them. I'm probably going to get a rake but need to do it in person. Distance selling not going to work for me in this instance
  25. DiveController
    Thanks, David. It's that other thread I was referring to. Fran, I'm canceling my insanity consultation with the psychiatrist.......phew!
