    Now, it's a unique Limited edition:tumbsup:

    Don't worry, George, they can charge you double!

    I may order a rake of the new coaches from Mr TrainMan when they come in Supertrain and throw this in;)

    On a cheerier note, you HAVE one and I don't yet……..hang on, now I'm depressed:(

    Ooops, silly me. I was trying to fit railway, irish, etc into the acronym:ROFL:

    I don't think the buffers locked but the inner ones might have pushed against each other on the curve causing a derailment (that may be what you meant by buyer locking). It didn't happen with my other cravens that had the Hornby style couplers. Wonder if the previous owner fitted ones that were a little too short closing the coaches too close together BK, what's iirc?

    Thanks Weshty:tumbsup: Are you familiar with the Kemilway brass kit of a footbridge similar to what you just put up there?

    Noel, It's not just the depth of focus that's off, but the color tint. Isn't that the blue seating that you really like in the Cravens ealy livery...

    Leslie, If you remember, I'm not a 5th generation Texan (minimum requirement to be even considered a native in this place) I'd never bring a knife to a gunfight

    I purchased several used Cravens that had Kadee couplings. They looked great but would derail during push running where my other craven would not. I can't remember of it was first or second radius track, possibly first. Never figured out what the issue was. Has anyone had any experience of this?

    I think MM5601 is stil generally available and so long as it is you'd be OK. If Seamus doesn't have ot then he'd probably respray one if you acquired it anywhere

    Nice but expensive coaches:trains:

    Wil be loosely based on CBSCR so that'll do nicely then:cool:

    :-bd Nice one, folks! Does anyone use anything else (variety is the spice)?

    Can anyone offer any guidance on whether there are any prototypical model OO bridges out there pre-asembled? In my mind these bridges look something like this one at Farranfore which is probably what I'd like to reproduce Thanks, http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/78/Farranfore_train_station.jpg/1024px-Farranfore_train_station.jpg

    Wow, I Just developed a renewed interest in card kits (given some time). I guess I assumed they were a 'printed box' Nice job, Rich=D

    Hi Glenderg, You guys are great, but I'm RTR for now due to lack of time. I'm not modeling a particular station, just trying to pick up some prototypical items to get on a layout that hasn't started yet. I think my efforts will all go into that. The Irish Bachmann Scenecraft is near unobtainable and I keep an eye out for it, so I'm looking to get the next best thing in pre-assembled for now. Kirley's beautiful night scene in just jaw-dropping. Well done you, that scratchbuild is amazing. Clonmel is a great station to model. I like the limestone architecture more than brick. Kevin

    You're still working!

    http://www.osbornsmodels.com/bachmann-scenecraft-44-063-stone-station-building-7808-p.asp THis is the one I think may look a little closer to "Irish",….. any thoughts especially if you know a local station like this or already have 44-252 you opinions are welcome
  23. DiveController
    Looking good, Rich. How do the parts detach from the card? cut each one with the Stanley/utility knife? Looking forward to the finished item...

    I wanted to order a 001 class locomotive from SilverFox and am awaiting a reply from John about how the A class is currently powered. I understand they were previously powered by a Lima chassis but are more recently powered by a "Hornby DCC-ready 5-pole skew wound motor" chassis. I don't know how much "old stock" might be out there. I don't know for certain that DCC-ready include a DCC socket or if there are all wheel pickups. Will post if I know more. I may order the assembled kit rather than RTR depending on the outcome of this thread. Noel, you like the workmanship of the bodyshell ,though? Kevin

    If it's that cramped it's likely to put some (but not the hardcore) off. Bigger venue likely to with some amenities likely to attract even attract even more
