  1. Neat job, Noel
  2. Ah, fair enough, Fran. His handle makes more sense now
  3. Thanks, Kieran. Speaking of J15's, don't they still have their plates likes 186 here?
  4. Have to agree. That's lovely shot, Fran!
  5. That's looking well, Eoin. Looking forward to seeing it in action over some pointwork.
  6. He's new to the forum and it's possible he did not see post #11 which is on the second page. I didn't do Honors IT either. I think the point has been well made now
  7. Thanks PJ
  8. That link doesn't seem to be working, John
  9. Did you enter 65? Change the cv29 back to 6 if she's not running after the wire change. You could also factory reset the chip if you've not changed anything else other than the loco address
  10. He's doing a whole chassis. The bogie sides look great!
  11. That's exactly what I ball-parked the value at. I've picked up the (US version of the) steam set (twice) for less then $150 each time. Except for a collector, noise and running characteristics on the lima 201s is inferior to the Murphy version
  12. Great detail on Aaron's containers, goes very well with the skeletal, I think. They also look well unloaded to show off the detail on the flat itself
  13. Very nice! Does it come with the container?
  14. My 'order' has been sent to you, Leslie
  15. Excellent job, Kieran, when compared to Leslie's photograph
  16. Hi John, I would take one of each at a minimum. Will revert. Any pricing for multiples? Thanks, K
  17. Noel, it's a nice job and I'm sure she'll run well. I have to agree with Richie that the side frames would benefit from being replaced which would give the best of both worlds. She is a bit plain on top and will look nice when numbered and weathered a little. Nice job though
  18. Spot on, jb. Two stone or quarter of 112 lbs
  19. I believe that the brake standard 1904 and the 1429-1443 series laminate #1442 were fitted with storage heaters to work that branch. I'm open to correction especially on the latter in the 80s. If so, John's 1904-1908 etches would be correct for the former, and Irish Freight models does a reasonably correct version of the latter (when it's in season)
  20. Moved this from Noel's paintshop thread where it was an aside Finally found one (that I had seen before and did't realize the significance of it at the time). 18829 in the light? green, black chassis, some letters under the number likely P&T and something else, illegible, Limerick, c. 1962. It's not mine to post unfortunately. As JHB said, he has photos to post in an upcoming book
  21. We've just had some spring storms which is usually followed about week later by a huge resurgence in the mosquito population. The complicated Mosquito magnet I used before was a waste of time but I run a Dynatrap from early, pretty much all season long and there is nothing smaller than a hornet to be seen. Has been much better last couple of seasons. The large one will clear a good half acre or more using a UV bulb and a solid state catalyst that produces Co2. Electricity os the only consumable and I run it dusk-dawn on a sensor. Sorry for the modelling aside
  22. Very nice indeed!
  23. It is beyond me why Ireland still has so much difficulty taking advantage of this as a tourist attraction, preserving railways, or housing the likes of the Fry Model railway
  24. A chance for interested parties to see the the OOworks UG in the flesh!
  25. Please. Looking forward to it
