Hi bs819 & welcome back to railway modelling, like yourself I'm intending to go DCC when I get my layout down. There are a number of DCC systems available, some I believe are in your price range & of course from what I know it depends on the individuals pocket & choice. There's lots of info on here from members who have tried & tested various DCC systems & will be more than willing to give you advoice on what's available, right now though it might be a bit early ( am / pm ) in the day ! I'll be interested in your progress, keep us posted, BTB

First time I seen this used,

That's a great find Sulzer201, reminded me of the night when I was about 9, I crept downstairs while the house slept just to look again at a book I had bought that day. Wouldn't mind but the book was in b & w, that was a long time ago & I still remember the moment, slept like a babe the rest of the night !! Thanks for posting BTB

What's that about hiding in the long grass !! Looking brilliant Eoin, you'll need a mower next !!!!

So that's what happened to the Turf Burner. !!!!

That's a very nice find, so what's happend to the model of Dun Laoghaire & the DART !!!

For the techies on here & those who want EXTREME SLOW & and to add to the present topic, here's a couple of Tube vids on DCC I have just come accross, from beginners to experts. Tube 2 has talks about something called " Unstoppable Signal Processing Device " or Power 1, for SLOW ! & I mean SLOW ..... No. 1, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PRynyMy9bYU No. 2 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_gTEG2ImLKo Forgot to mention they're a bit long, 3hrs

Looking very well Noel, nice mixture, well done.

Truly great loss to Munster rugby & Ireland. At such a young age & with so much more to give, he will be missed by & remembered by many, condolences to his family, RIP

Hi John & thanks, WOW, thankfully my knowledge & value of these & any American models is too say the least nothing short of ignorance, glad I didn't dare encourage anyone to buy this !!!!!!!

Hi bs819, have a look at this, http://www.ebay.ie/itm/331983938523?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Eoin, that's pure craftsmanship, craftsmanship of a higher scale, your attention to detail is astonishing, I can coly look & admire your skills, my hat off to you sir.....

Hi all & thanks, & IT no offence taken, the ad do's say o.n.o. I just thought someone might be interested in this & enjoy it & not have it sitting in a box, but I'll take over €300 if anyone wants to offer that....btb

Hi guys, I have this Bachmann Deltic Class 55 DCC Fitted " PINZA " with sound & crew for sale. It's been in its box, in a box as I don't have my layout yet. its in absolute perfect condition & has only been run on my dining room table Xmas 2015, & because of that it probably could do with a proper running in. All accessories are still in the box untouched. I have had the loco id changed to No 1 as I did intend keeping it to run with some of my UK BR stock. You cannot buy this model now from Hattons as its completely sold out & has been for some time. I'm asking for €300.00 O.N.O. It can be collected in Dublin city centre by arrangement or post at buyers cost. Any questions don't hesitate to contact me, preferably by PM. If anyone on here knows how to reduce this image please do ! TIA https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/s/?view=att&th=156cb4cf06a94b08&attid=0.1&disp=attd&realattid=1543807560810758144-local0&safe=1&zw

Cometh the hour, Cometh the Man, utterly, totally magnificent craftsmanship at its peak ! Paul

" if a viscus glue is being used and after applying the glue to a DART body print with a standard syringe I can do nothing else for several hours!" Eoin, your not supposed to lick it. !!!!!!

Congratulatitions Paddy & well done so far, you have a shed just like mine inc. flap, but at least you have now got track down & trains running, My shed is 16ft x 8ft, I cannot at ths time put down any track as we're planning on moving !!! so for now all's up I he air, keep the photos coming, Paul

Daryl,, that's one very, very serious piece of weathering, hats off to you sir, if you could do a video of your expertise it would be mega, very well done, particularely liked the 071, btb

Truly mega find, 201bhoy, for me the " A " class stands out, many thanks for sharing, btb

This has been discussed on here before & I said I was in that shop in the late 60's or there abouts then & I say the same now, so even if you played with the Duchess I say it closed in the late 60's or early 70's, http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/2604-Just-a-memory-Phibsboro-Modellers-Shop?highlight=memory+Phibsboro+model+shop
