An absolutely gorgeous locomotive! Such a staple of the Irish North West -
Think I'll have to buy a few of these!
-
IIRC @Mayner suggested using the valance as a guide to solder the footplate curves around for the 4-4-0
-
I have some experience from JMs D17 class!

They're gorgeous little tank engines, I'm surprised they didn't do better and make threshold!
-
3d printed it seems, for some of them at least.

Buffet in her current form.

Mol, was looking at this video. At the end there's footage from Glasnevin Junction. Great set of shots, finishes with Maedbh hauling the Up Enterprise. But specific to the Buffet, shows an AEC set with what looks like a black roof, dark green, single waist band. So I've changed mine to look like that! Will post a pic later. Video is timestamped

Looking very tasty indeed!

Will give this a bit of a bump, gonna add to it tonight anyway. Norfolk Western J class still for sale, 150 euro Hornby Southern 2 bil EMU for sale 140 euro Bachmann Tornado still for sale, 130 euro Would reluctantly sell the Hornby K1 mogul for 120. Rest have been sold since.

The Park Royals are really too late for the Woolwiches for the most part, and while people may have Silver and Green A and C class, they're no doubt fewer in number to black n tan examples. I bought 2 green ones, but they are a bit out of step with the rest of my dark green stock, and wouldn't be seen until steams end. (I do prefer the dark green) They spent the vast majority of their lives in black n tan. H vans have stuck around for a good while. Just for me personally, I bought six of the fitted vans and 3 grain vans, I plan on getting 6 regular H vans but money doesn't grow on trees! Any more is IMO money better spent on CK prints to get more variety on goods trains. There probably is a saturation with H vans and the Palvans, but as we know stock can sit for years and then end up at ludicrous prices on ebay.

The 6 car ICRs on the Enterprise have blacked out Irish Rail logos, so I suppose a bit of black paint would do the job

watch this space!

that specific one is the bachmann split chassis, though bachmann have released a new tooling in 2019 IIRC. The J72 is a bit longer and the wheels smaller. Eoin Murray converted one to an MGWR P class
