  1. More likely it'll go back on at GBP100 instead of 1,100. Still a pretty stiff price at that!
  2. I’m sorry for the late question on this thread @warb but do you happen to know what year this photo was taken?
  3. Other than Cork Kent itself? Unfortunately PukeBucket has pulled some of his wonderful photos of his model (unless one cares to be extorted by them)
  4. ?
  5. Always interested in tankers. Do you know time period when these were used, 80s? EDIT: Hold on, I just realized there's a whole parallel thread on here
  6. Well, it's interesting that only a couple of votes separate Accurascale and longer standing manufacturers such as Rails of Sheffield
  7. Haven't been on the site this week. Just found out about this. Rake of cement grey please! ... although I'm not surprised by the Irish cement logo voting. I have one pack of these just for nostalgia/display but that's where it'll end for me. It's nice to see that this is being considered so that the bubbles are not 'gone forever' That's a good point Noel. I have orange and CIE ivory ready for a mixed rake, but I hadn't though of that. I'm not sure I've seen a picture of a mixed rake of slate grey & newly introduced orange
  8. I'm not sure if it would be a viable small project or not (like a Rawie, I suppose) but it would probably be helpful if one could get complete common Irish bogies such as the commonwealth bogie to retrofit to existing/future rtr and scratch/kit built instead of trying to build these individually. BTW at the risk of echoing others comments, it's an exquisite build and I'v been watching this thread with interest. Some great information regarding battery boxes and vacuum cylinders and great prototypical and model photos
  9. Done
  10. Odd, that form is usually more prevalent here in the US. I haven’t heard anything from them. Must drop an email
  11. A long rake or two will do very nicely indeed! .... which would mean I’d need a black, black & yellow and a rebuilt loco to haul them
  12. If you consider that the orange bubbles only existed in that livery for less than a decade (barring a transition period) while the ivory livery endured for a further three decades, I'd say the orange bubbles have acquitted themselves well in terms of sales. 'Glad' they have sold out for you!
  13. I’ve some Mayner brass just arrived from Kiwiland too

    Smart looking livery with the green on white I think

    Tara's

    Nice shot, Dave! I seem to remember someone stating the Tara logo was in yellow or gold but that definitely looks grey on white when new and pristine
  16. ooooh, nice shot Warb.iS that part of a traverser for emptying the ore? Looks like that overhead lifts the roof off or secures to the wagon on the four top anchor points?
  17. If anyone has pictures in blue livery I'd be interested in seeing that please Only ones I can think of off the top of my head and one from Ciaran Cooney Collection http://eiretrains.com/Photo_Gallery/Railway Stations N/Navan/IrishRailwayStations.html#Navan_20110321_003_CC_JA.jpg
  18. Great shots, really shows the difference on the comparison.

    Sorry Bos, I didn't understand that
  20. Yes, that's not right. I'm glad you;re getting a replacement. Hopefully no issues with that or we're all in trouble
  21. Could;t open the video link
  22. Agree. I know some of the prices listed are ridiculous but isn't this the bargain thread guys?
  23. That a pretty big range 'something greater than 24mm' - 48 mm
  24. How timely. I just checked the site yesterday Still late 2018/2019. So maybe for Christmas then Is that commercially available or had to be mixed specially?
