    John. the woolwiches instead of the 500s would make sense as you said.The woolwich moguls could work on the Mullingar Athlone Dublin route which the larger engines probably couldnt ,because of their axeload.still wouldnt they have enough money to build the 500s if they scrapped the 400s?I think if CIE had named their expresses it would have made them more profitable and in larger demand.They could have learned alot from the GNR if they were not to busy closing some great lines.

    I know the 400s were very unrealiable before their rebuilding. Their rebuilding cost the GSR alot of money.They should have scrapped more of them and built more 500s.

    Need some advice. how many roads should an engine shed serving a large terminus have
  20. GSR 800
    Well the boards will go round the shed. each board is 10x2.
  21. GSR 800
    This is my design for the terminus.Very rough and frankly,hideous. but its a start
  22. GSR 800
    Ok
  23. GSR 800

  24. GSR 800
