    Advance Notice for Wexford Model Railway Club's Annual Exhibition & O Gauge Festival: it is scheduled for Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th May (and not Easter as for the last 11 years)! Hope you can join us for a super exhibition of all that is great about our hobby. Invitations have been issued but everyone that would like to should contact us about attending. We are particularly looking for O Gauge layouts this year but any gauge/subject will be welcome. For more see: Wexford Exhibition We will keep you posted on developments closer to the event. A couple of views from last year's event to whet your appetite:

    More detail added to the engine shed plus all layout tested with locomotives and working perfectly: Additional detail in development on the fiddle-yard end of the layout:
  3. Irishrailwayman
    More detail added to depot shed and track is now "rusted" and ballast weathered:
  4. Irishrailwayman
    I believe this is correct!
  5. Irishrailwayman
    Lights on in the shed:
  6. Irishrailwayman
    The new set-up looks like it is well worth a visit!

    Progress on track ballasting and concrete apron around engine shed:

    Progress on that signal box:
  9. Irishrailwayman
    The 201s only got to Supertrain livery and spent their final days hauling ancient AEC stock on the then soon-to-be DART lines and to/from Maynooth asfaik.

    The 121 will have a sugar cube supplied as standard fitted facing into the open grille area. All you have to do to convert to DCC with/without sound is fit the 21-pin decoder.
  11. Irishrailwayman
    Paddy's DCC and DCC sound chips will match the PCB fitted so I don't think other chips will provide the functionality without re-programming.

    Started work on a Timber Tracks Signal Box kit to adorn Buffers Lock! The kit is presented as well as the others described above with good instructions and well fitting parts each group of which are supplied in separate bags for ease of identification.

    Apologies -content posted on wrong thread!

    Progress with concrete apron and painting shed:
  15. Irishrailwayman
    Working on adding a "concrete" apron around the depot shed using mounting card glued together with contact adhesive and stuck in place using PVA (which enables the card to be lifted without damage if ever the need arises). Also completed adding plastic strip to the shed and started painting it.

    Good progress on assembling the cattle dock now ready for painting (OO model pictured for size comparison):
  17. Irishrailwayman
    Starting work on the O gauge Cattle Dock from Timber Tracks. A simpler kit overall, nicely presented with parts in individual bags:
  18. Irishrailwayman
    Adding plasticard strips to the engine shed to provide a better finish prior to painting. Also a view without the shed so you can spot the mirror!
  19. Irishrailwayman
    Pricey yes but the kit fits together really well and are very well thought out with exquisite detailing. They are also extremely strong when built and should transport well to exhibitions etc in suitable boxes. I also have their cattle dock and a Goods Depot for Buffers Lock so I will detail in time how these are building up on this forum over time.

    Hi JHB, yes this is a laser wood product from timbertracks.co.uk - beautifully presented with section parts in separate bags and comprehensive instructions. They do a range of 4 mm and 7 mm products but are closing down and selling off their stocks at present. The detail is low- relief and the windows and doors need to be separately painted before fitting to the model.
  21. Irishrailwayman
    More progress on Camerton Station Building with internal skirting, dado and picture rails added! Ready for painting after which doors/windows will be added.
  22. Irishrailwayman
    The mirrors are in place giving the impression of a much larger layout!
  23. Irishrailwayman
    LED lighting fitted to inspection pits, back-scene strengthening battens added and fiddle-yard completed:
  24. Irishrailwayman
    Doors open without advertising/fanfare to test first reactions/iron out any glitches before a grand opening public ceremony in January?
  25. Irishrailwayman
    We have selected a gritty industrial back-scene for the O gauge UK TMD:
