Ive tried to contact the powers that be via the CONTACT US to show a site I just found without any luck, as I've been trying to send a message in one of the Shops, Manufacturers etc. section but cannot find any starter tread !! BTB
-
Best wishes & get well soon,
-
Many thanks JB, & I've just been looking back on the tread, Irish Carraiges, & in it Kirley if this parish brings forward a table of info on Irish Coaches, & from what I can understand, & that's saying nothing, it would seem as far as logos, snails, numbers paint shades were concerned, the rules just did not seem to apply !!!!! Of course I could be wrong !!
-
Noel, I agree 100% of course, we would need to seek the knowledge of JB, but just think of the possiblities of the outcome ! A few photos of these coaches would be a great help. I have wagons that apart from colour, & which a coat or two of a similar paint, would, to me using the 2 FOOT RULE, not look out of place alongside / behind a B&T 141 ! Paul
-
Looking mega Noel, so while your at it, any ideas as to what other BR / LMS coaches would be suitable for a lick of paint, for me, always keeping the 2 FOOT RULE in mind... Paul
-
Nice one Noel, well done sir, they're looking mega, shove them on your tracks behind a 141 & enjoy & video. Now mind telling me what code, RAL mix or what was that TAN you put on the carriage, TIA ( don't forget that video ) Paul

Hi DV & Noel & many thanks, this might get me to start / attempt some kind of painting / respraying in the coming weeks....

burnthebox replied to burnthebox's topic in British Outline Modelling
As long as its not a Black Diamond........!!!! LOL -
Well DV I thought that's what he did !!! But then what do I know, I'm sure he'll be on here very soon to tell, ths is great fun finding out how to spray, & I don't have a spray gun setup.... but the cans used correctly can ( no pun ) do the job...
-
Well Noel to begin I have to say a quick look at the pc of the two side by side sees YOU ON TOP of the old coach, PAINT BRUSH IN HAND doing what you do best now I know nothing about Reverse Asking Tape !!! Can you explain please, Paul
-
Here's wishing you speedy recovery & back to doing what you do best, ASAP PS I hope that's not for a Hornby Select.....
-
Well done Noel, you dug up some interesting photos, mind telling me exactely how you got that white line looking sooooo good, TIA Paul
-
Thanks Eoin, I've been looking at photos of CIE WAGONS / VANS that for me, when playing with trains they, with some painting / respraying & weathering would pass the 2 FOOT Challange..
-
For what its worth, Everard Junction has begun to strip down his layout !!! & it's not pretty ! BTB
-
Hi John & thanks for that list, do you know is there any similar / lookalike list of IRISH VANS / WAGONS available that you know of, lots of talk about the differences in Irish compaired to UK, but a few photos might help, Thanks BTB
-
Anyone on here able to tell me has that store closed or not as the web site is still operating, I think, BTB

I know this HOBBY can get expensive but for the colour GREEN that's been asked about on here, this thing is in an IRISH GREEN ! Now you don't have to buy the thing ! to get the code, go on their web site & you'll get the code, I'm no suggesting h is the colour that's been asked about, but maybe !! https://www.google.ie/search?sclient=tablet-gws&q=porsche+irish+green+paint+code&oq=Porsche+Irish+Green+Paint+c&gs_l=tablet-gws.1.0.0.2027.9169.0.10766.8.3.0.2.2.0.358.358.3-1.1.0....0...1c.1.64.tablet-gws..5.3.387.R-JTDF2Ln9o#imgrc=SN3jXTkFeiXpoM:&spf=17

Fantastic Noel, job well done, & not in any way taking from your skill as demonstated in spraying / respraying / weathering, personally I would be very happy to have that on my layout as I'm very much the TWO FOOT RULE railway enthusiast & enjoy playing trains. Mind telling me what was the make, code, RAL etc. of that Black paint you used. Paul
