im sure they would go for a reasonable price on fleabay..

Well John you might be waiting a while anyway, getting a 70 year, 100 ton locomotive steamed up will take a while, getting out of cultra would be another,.. go to the shops for some coal and water(Ballygowan of course) might run in to whitehead as well to borrow a few snail transfers...would ye stay there till Monday? you wouldnt be that hard to find..

Did the GSR ever wash their coaches John?
-
sounds like the GSR era all over again! Pure boring. the GSR battleship grey was a dark shade of grey,all locos exept the 800s were completly grey exept the buffer beam,the wagon grey was significantly lighter, but just as boring...
-
Ohh b*****x!
-
What would be a good one for a 400 class?
-
The SR Schools class is fairly close to a GNR VS class
-
Another one, the SR M7 0-4-4 to the GSR/CIE E1 class

A thread to assist those who are looking for RTR stock that could be converted to look more like the Irish stuff. To start off, My favourites, the 800s. The Royal Scot class/patriot class are the ideal locos for conversion. I'm sure Des would supply you with nameplates and number plates. Another,very easy one is the woolwich moguls,get an N class, repainted, few little alterations and away you go.

Ah stop John, I'm having me dinner!
-
How nauseating..
-
Fare enough so, that's your choice, and 560 was a unique one. And the tramore line would make a great layout...
-
Well done John, might buy a copy myself!
-
The T&C would be an excellent place for this little locos. Beet in the autumn, and excursion trains in the summer(with a couple of ancient 6 wheelers behind of course!)if you were going with such a layout, no.552 would be a good candidate, as it was a regular performer on the T&C.
-
It's actually far more expensive, if you ad postage, it ends up at over €100!
-
It did look a bit like that, but the green was much darker
-
Lads, has anyone seen a railcar( I think it was a 29000) in a dark green livery? I saw a glimpse of it leaving Mullingar on the Sligo line. Is this a new livery or do I need to go to specksavers?
-
Would ye nearly be better scratch building or kit bashing?
-
Those were the good Aul days.. Hmmm..

Absolutely fascinating! So these locomotives designed for freight workings? These would have been a very powerful locomotive at the time,possibly one of the largest in Europe? Such a shame they were all scrapped, they would have been a fascinating exhibit at Cultra! Would the 500s have been the first "successful" 4-6-0s? I have a feeling that the GWR will get involved in this conversation..
