    Careful now..

    Still, at least the DVTs never killed Jeremy clarkson 3 times
  3. GSR 800
    Sounds good to me!
  4. GSR 800
    Bring back the 141s!( throws barrel at 2700 class)
  5. GSR 800
    Very nice. The layout is really coming together.
  6. GSR 800
    I'm pretty sure it's brass and white metal Des. I might buy one, but I will have to declare bankruptcy with the amount of things I'm buying up, Ballast wagons, 121s, the list goes on and on..

    John, when you go to post there is three options(pick a card) (A) Post quick reply (B) Go advanced and © cancel. Click on go advanced. This allows you to see what your post would look like before you post it. Very handy if your trying to make sure you get those pints.. I mean pics, the right way up.
  8. GSR 800
    John you got the majority the right way up, so 3 pints it will have to be. The second posts images aren't working at all though

    I think many of the trams are going to transport museums...the horses are going to good homes too

    That looks amazing:) what sort of locos have you got there. I see woolies, but I saw an 0-6-0 and maybe even a 4-4-0. I will follow this layout with interest..

    Started this a week ago, from a Hornby King Arthur...no.402. Might put her in the CIE green. The chassis were very poor, so I will give her a more modern one.

    Mullingar signal cabin, I believe, is still connected to the points in the yard, for RPSI use,storage of maintanance trains etc.

    John, when Meadbh was repainted on inchicore in the early 60s, she was not given a snail, I wonder why. Also, on some of the other green locos, the snails seem to have disappeared, probably under a layer of filth!

    From the mikemorant collection

    That's a great pic Bosko. Looks like she is paired with a tender from one of her green sisters
  16. GSR 800
    Although the main lines at Glanmire road are controlled at Connolly, I think the remaining points in the yard are controlled by the signal box.

    Plaster it with rivets! Put on a smokebox door handle: Des might supply you with one. Livery wise: GSR/CIE overall grey or CIE green(to a few). In the late 50s near the end of steam some were given grey BUT with a black smokebox. I think one was given black, with cherry red lining, although that livery looked very British to me. One or two were given a plain black Livery. Hope this helps!

    Unloaded at the north wall?

    Looks like it'll be a busy year for him..
  20. GSR 800
    Ok.. How bout.. Ballaghadereen?
  21. GSR 800
    What sort of space do you have John?
  22. GSR 800
    Poetic license? That's how Kedleston is a large city somewhere in Wicklow or Waterford, which connects up to the mainline. Kenmare could last until 1966:)
  23. GSR 800
    The Kenmare branch?

    The upside down pics here seem to be "attached images" which only happens for me if I try to upload pics, then it doesn't work, so I stop uploading it. Even if I get the photos up, or don't upload them at all this happens. As John has said these are often upside down or even sideways. Seems to often happen with iPads or iPhones

    Like the look of Westport Quay, John. What era are you planning on? Knowing your style I would say late 50s early 60s Maybe add a headshunt for better shunting?
