  1. well its settled then.build some new steamers for the autumn!
  2. I love those little engines,from their waddle,to their noise, the " hiss ah"" hiss ah". One of the greats,the humble j26.
  3. Seven plank wagons....convertibles.....GNR brake vans...must save up .....Tailte is my least favourite 800....SSM range has increased within the last ten years...life is pointless without Guinness.....Des has brainwashing powers...
  4. There's a fairly good chance of finding parts of auld steamers lying around there!
  5. I count the tippex livery as in the black n tan area. Some of the 141s at inchicore have been partially dismantled,rotting away in some sidings,deep inside inchicore
  6. When I went back to the old version I decided to stay with the new one. I've gotten used to it now, and the old one just looks to..old!
  7. Wonder if any of those Mk3s up in Scotland are still in their old livery
  8. Sure yer both right!..I think:confused:
  9. Aren't there still two 141s stored at inchicore in blackntan?
  10. Would this have been a black or green livery? Sehr interesant, Herr Beumont( very interesting ya boyo Beaumont)
  11. That's what John means, there is no need for lining, as they were all painted in the GSRs battleship grey
  12. 3 for me..2 grey ones and a blackntan one!
  13. Maybe you were thinking about me and my under coat on the 800( which was black)..nonetheless what a terrible dream...
  14. Bosko, you are a true and fair leader. Three cheers!
  15. Maybe was just a glitch,returned to normal now
  16. Ehh..lads..am i the only one seeing the old design for the site?
  17. http://www.steamtrainsireland.com/locomotives/loco461.htm
  18. Apart from minor details, such as Snap head rivets and that the dome would be rounded off a bit more,there would not be much of a difference
  19. Ahh the Aul virgin vomiter
  20. No need to apologies John,I didn't exactly make it very clear
  21. Twas Limerick junction I was talking about John!
  22. The enterprise was extended to cork in 1950 but didn't even get to see dieselisation. It was stopped in 1953, probably due to the fact that it over 5 hours long.i believe the film was in Tom ferris film, from Belfast to Baltimore.
  23. Twas the enterprise John
  24. I saw a piece of film showing no.406 arriving at Limerick Jct with an entire GNR set,a strange looking spectacle.
  25. At the October show, there was a picture of meadhb with enterprise headboards,for a second I thought it was a very strange looking VS class! How did they get the GNR coaches from Amiens street to Kingsbridge? I'm thinking the Phoenix park tunnel but I really don't know
