I know I won't find that font on a PC. It's to aid getting transfers made.
-
The painted numbers on coaches and railbuses.

I've acquired a T & D railcar, remote control, remote control to boot! 20260409_171219.mp4

What font did the CDRJC use for its numbers?
-
As I thought, a long journey for any passenger after the shunting to dropoff and collect wagons.

Did the Donegal freight trains stop at the relevant goods yards on thier journey to load and unload goods?
-
On the Wee Donegal there were bogie coaches with a passenger compartment at each end, the rest being for the Guard. They were used on freight trains. Were passengers permitted to travel on them when in use as a freight guards van? It surely would of been a slow journey!

Is it Whitehead that its registered? Its just that, as I'm sure anyone who has tried to buy anything from GB to NI is told it can't be done as we're EU. It seems that we're in the EU when it suits, and UK when it suits.

Wouldn't that of made a great porch!

25 + years ago a Class 70 mule end was visible from the train going past Magheramourne quarry. I assume it's gone now? But why was it there?

Having seen the dangers that a gland blowing out at 25 PSI can do, I think that was an extremely foolish thing to do. There's a reason why boilers require a safety certificate.

Please tell a steam loco wasn't fired up without a valid boiler certificate.

Blame who laid it, not where it came from!

1956: The END OF THE LINE? BBC Documentary on future of NI railways
16miller replied to Flying Snail's topic in General Chat
It's full of good images for the modeller, that's the only good thing to say about it. I'm sure any motorist now who's stuck in bad traffic in a town that had its railway removed is not quite in agreement with the 'car is the future' idea. -
I didn't know it had reached the FVR!

I've inherited this partially scratchbuilt Donegal No. 3. I shall endeavour to finish it!

I can do no better than to direct you to the website of the 16mm Association. 'For forty years we have been helping and inspiring people of all ages and abilities around the world to get involved in narrow gauge railway modelling in the scales of 14 to 16mm to the foot, usually in a real garden railway environment' https://www.16mm.org.uk
-
We're not so scale sensitive in 16mm, but when OO Irish models are running on 16.5 mm track which is too narrow for even GB gauge......
-
I know there isn't a lot of 16mm interest here, but Loco Remote have launched a kit of the Donegal's No. 1 railcar. https://locoremote.co.uk/?fbclid=IwT01FWAQFP1BleHRuA2FlbQIxMABzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAwzNTA2ODU1MzE3MjgAAR58XYRBn9lDnmzdk_QMXf4_Zg9NPFX-604AJ6IInNrvHkEUzFPEP483MXhoew_aem_aDrk5iKqnb0FJDd5y_M5iA

Where would I get drawings for Clogher Valley Locomotives? Thank you
-
What is the current loading gauge on both companies, and what's the height of the chimney top, whistle and safety valves. I'm hearing about thoughts of height, but very little actual dimensions to gauge it properly.
