    Thanks JM, after looking at the dingham coupler it looks pretty good, It looks right:)
  2. GSR 800
    Ok thanks. Do you have any pics of some of those couplers?
  3. GSR 800
    I want to use a realistic coupling , and have been told that the 3 link is best but I am unsure how to use them.
  4. GSR 800
    Happy B-day Jim;)

  6. GSR 800
    No 075 was not severly damaged as it kept upright. Sadly the coaches completely disintergrated
  7. GSR 800
    Im also glad you brought this up . Amazing looking machine
  8. GSR 800
    I liked the 747s
  9. GSR 800
    What would have happened if they kept open the Mullingar Athlone line.Harcourt street(as a standard station)and Alberts quay. Also the Derry Road. all of these seem to be very short sighted closes

    I remember seeing that in one of Tom Ferris's films. it was a Wide bridge but they were lucky the didnt have to shelter anything bigger than a Bandon! Such a shame it was all torn down.
  11. GSR 800
    Are their any reminents of albert quay and/or the Cork"tramway" left at all? I liked the wonderful signalbox there
  12. GSR 800
    Please sir may i have some more......201s ?
  13. GSR 800
    Was 90 shunter at glanmire road in the 50s?
  14. GSR 800
    alright sound:tumbsup: I nearly forgot what do you use for grass?
  15. GSR 800
    Could you post more pics of the station area please?
  16. GSR 800
    Quick update.Cant seem to upload the pics.scratch built platforms and engine shed under construction. Once I have all the track laid I will start putting down the ballast.A through station will now be opposite the terminus while the shed and sidings will be between them
  17. GSR 800
    Ah all right,that makes sense.sound:tumbsup:
  18. GSR 800
    Does that mean the comments deleted are left in the thread they were posted in or are they deleted from the thread
  19. GSR 800
    Could have made a good few bob from that Kev! If you look up the Irish Sea railway tunnel the gauge problem is seen as a very large one.They did not mention multi gauge tracks instead multi gauge trains.Not sure which would be cheaper but I would say the tracks.
  20. GSR 800
    The rail tunnel between ireland and england. Been proposed many times but ovious problems (gauge) prevented this. Could they just have a track inside a track(if this is a good idea im putting copyrite on it!)
  21. GSR 800
    Yes i think on the cork mainline they should put down the heavier track. not to many 201s going though, if you take a look at inchicore on google maps...
  22. GSR 800
    Mine are DVDs! Have you seen the one where they filmed kildare for the day. 800s,400s,might have been a 500 all kinds of express locos. a great piece of film
  23. GSR 800
    But dont the 201s still overtime damage the track due to their axel load
  24. GSR 800
    Why do they use lighter track/gauge?
  25. GSR 800
    If you have not already seen them tom ferris produced multiple railway videos,including Macha roaring out of glanmire rd. tunnel.That pension sounds nice now!
