  1. Jayzus, keep the alcohols separate and the paint stripper away from the vodka
  2. That's true. They got pretty grimy in photos. I think the main issue is when removing the two parts of the body for inside work. The rails can be easy enough at times but very fiddly on occasion. Despite my better than average eyesight, I've hot that decade when presbyopia sets in! Noel, any chance of a video of the lollipop method when you get a chance, I tried it but couldn't get it to work, maybe not enough pressure in the right places or whatever. (I know that might be hard unless you have a willing accomplice or a tripod). Not essential but if it's easy to do
  3. I presume this is the look you're going for?
  4. Beautiful layout, Gerry! Can't believe there have been only two replies to this thread in as many days Well done, Noel, for posting
  5. Many are online, depending on how long of a break
  6. They don't need to be banned. They need to be restricted to people who have a use for them. It's easy enough to restrict their sale to adults and adults should be smart enough to keep them to themselves.
  7. C233 and B233 with her Maybach engine are other numbering options, C203 had a yellow bufferbeam
  8. Ah, yes! Thats looks way better, Noel. Getting rid of the american bogies from the Athearn chassis makes a huge difference to 121! Same with the C class. I think the black livery with yellow warning panel is a great choice of livery. Looking forward to seeing that!

  10. Sexy in Supertrain, Noel
  11. Looking very well now, Noel!
  12. No, I think you're in luck Dave. I'm pretty sure it's from a Hill of Howth tram EDIT: it took some time to find evidence to back that statement up.... http://irishphotoarchive.photoshelter.com/image?_bqG=3&_bqH=eJxNjk0PATEQhv_NXlysC5H0UN1aE7T0Y2NPEwQVYTerSPbXazeCw7zzvJnPzaP2WEzO01vbtPf03OL65C_HjRutx.lgnPb7MYICZpoRV7286_lme00AGZiShKwNNTwCk1YYVSJoGa1UwEWogRTRgkbFF5xqnn3s6t9rqQxRVMyT7hRSkREf2GquEDJi4xuu3g2fu1lV2yqUClDG0gXSnAtWxqYE2QQhLA6jH7RfVNMfLiNSZsj9sG32Lim66bxTFvUN0D9Vow--
  13. True but I thought the combo unusual all the same. More clean bubbles...
  14. They were certainly on the system but I know little of them. I presume the migrated from NCC territory or ships to various parts of the system. Maybe someone will comment? They seems to fit inside the broad gauge planked wagons pretty easily. (lurking in the background)
  15. Unusual on two fronts, motive power and relatively clean bubbles!
  16. There's even a free pdf to download online but I didn't see the supplement
  17. It's your railway but to leave the GM bogies on there would to depart too far from the prototype. If they could not be replaced then the dilemma would be running quality versus looks ..... but they can ..... 2 cents. I suspect we'll see a finer bogie in time, in the style of ECM etc (fingers crossed)
  18. Thanks for all the info
  19. That looks good, Eoin! When might it be available?
  20. 3,000 euro for the GNR Loughs (wheel arch nameplates)
  21. :canofworms: Now my interest is peaked....
  22. I would suggest that you upload any photos by checking the 'store a local copy' checkbox when you upload to the forum. I have subscribed to (bookmarked) a number of very useful threads only to return later to find that resource devoid of photos if the external link is moved or renamed.
