It will certainly be worth the wait!

Got my liners out for a run this evening - must have missed an axle with the lube!
-
Thanks, luckily I still have my own hair...for now
-
I have just put together a static grass applicator from 3D printed parts and a module from eBay. A quick test to make sure it works....now I just have to build a layout. Yet another project to start.
-
I am oiling all of the axles on mine at the moment, all running freely afterwards so happy enough. I do appear to have one bogie which is too tight and is causing derailments so not entirely sure as I have oiled the centre pin as suggested and removed the bogie to scrape away any paint etc. A long run in may help.

Happy Christmas to all! Happy to have received my IRM liners and buffer stops recently. I'm prototyping some new loads to go on a rake at the moment - awaiting some parts for my 3D printer before I print the full body. Some tweaks also required to the 3D model.

I have found Micro Set and Micro Sol to be excellent when applying decals. A few applications of Micro Sol after placement really helps to settle the decal in. I usually brush over a coat of gloss or matt varnish to protect the decal.

Very nice weathering!

Great work!

I picked up this truck at the SDMRC show last weekend. I repainted the cab and crane, and altered the ramps at the back of the bed. Also applied some dry brushing to the bed. New registration plates were also applied to both models here.

Set C still available, I will be at the SDMRC show in Blackrock again tomorrow. -
Any visitors should be made aware that the opening of the Wexford Festival Opera is on Tuesday night, with fireworks on the Quay at 19:40. The Quays will be closed to traffic from 17:00 - 20:30. There is parking at the WMRC club but it may be in demand.

I've looked before and I didn't find much. I'd go for murky and dark like this one in Moyasta. Also have a read fo this US site http://gshsignal.blogspot.com/2011/07/whats-on-inside-of-those-water-tanks.html

Hi Tony, I 3D printed this crest earlier this year. It is a bit rough but it might interest you.
-
I like these ones... https://twitter.com/IrishRailExcuse/status/1028538827328167942

Excellent, what products did you use?
-
Bachmann flat and round top are the same except for the flat top. The Irish ones are round top, and the flat tops can be converted with some styrene and filler before painting. Lots of decals on those models!

Paddy had 3/4 other cab samples, with the windows above the bonnet

Video Website Updates

Inspection car 723 travelled over the South Wexford line in June - possibly the last ever movement across the line. -
Just like anything else there can't be one rule for some and a different rule for others.
