Anthony very sorry to hear of the loss of your father, my deepest sympathies to you and family at this difficult time,

Tut, Tut, now, now,

Well done Jack, nice one's,

patrick, bloody well done, just fantastic, your layout looks great, you have some items on your layout that I still have in my attack, and it will be a while before it comes down, ( wheelchair story, long, for later ) keep up the good work, and what about a vid, well done,

Great time was had by all it seem's, and rightly so, I totally enjoyed it, venue was just great, and I picked up a few bargans, including one from wrenneire. ??? I also got to meet, even put a face on a few more members from here, Anthoney, Boskonay,Garfieldsghost, DartStation, & of course, wrenneire, & I got to meet " Train Repairs" , Brendan, ( thanks again Thomas ) glad to meet one & all at last, now I know you do exist, & not just in cyberspace. already looking forward to next one, I'm not going to say I forgot my camera, cause who would believe it, but I did,, wanted to get some pics of any / all, everything, sorry guys,

There's a few buses that pass the hotel, inc. I think the 84a, 84x, check the web, in my experience the 46a's usually travel in packs of three's

Thanks Dave for that, any info on this, http://www.kerryauctionrooms.com/catalogue/auction13-11-12/Image_0071_0332_0001_Full.htm

Hi all, could anyone give me any background on this please, when (year ) were they first launched / produced, etc. etc. http://www.kerryauctionrooms.com/catalogue/auction13-11-12/Image_0071_0331_0001_Full.htm

Hi Thomas, & thanks for that, is he on this site, & what's his tag

Don't forget there is a shopping Centre, a Cinema, a Bowling Alley, plenty of fun for all, while the fun takes place in Stillorgan Park Hotel

Hi Dave, sorry for the late reply, it's a Lima,

I'll hope to get a few minutes inside, any of you guys who will be there say hello as I have a lot of questions, & need help getting a old class 55 "The Fife & Forfar Yeomanry " back in working order, anyone on here who will be at the show & would be able to do this, not for nothing of course,

Hi guys, have a peek at this on the bay right now, best of luck to all http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LIMA-00-GAUGE-VINTAGE-MODEL-RAILWAY-SET-TRAIN-CARRIAGES-TRANSFORMER-BOXED-/380515789398?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item5898822a56

Can we not have the the bus version, lot's of body's, Ambulances, Garda, Fire engines,

A great historical reference guide, well done, a great find, just show's what was available in Ireland, ( burnthebox, otherwise known as Paul Johnston, and no he's not related, pity )

Hi Guys & thanks, yes it's a bugger to open & yes Rob I was expecting to hear that KERR-ACCKKK! but got away with it, but it seem's the axles may have gone, (bit of history with this engine part of a set, deal with that later) so when I get the time I'll need to get someone on here to have a look at it, also I have got my paws on a Lima Class 55 (also a bit of history with this ) which is a non runner, tested it on the rolling road but no go. I don't know what could be wrong, body is in perfect condition. I'm have no knowledge when it comes to engines that don't run when you put them on the rails and throw the switch,

Anyone on here know how to open a Mainline OO Gauge o-6-0T Class J72 Loco body from the chassis. Screws underneath open ok, but I cannot get the body to separate from the chassis,

OK, what's that in real money

That's just the most fantastic vid I've seen of the 071 to date, it seem's to have all functions, so where do you order a 071 with this chip

Why not have a meet up, in a venue which would be as suitable, convenient as possible for everyone, where we could bring our single most prized item for all to gaze comment on, maybe even leer on, it may be in a hotel, or maybe someone knows a venue which could be hired for the night, there must be a venue / hotel who have this kind of venue available these days for something like this to rent / hire for a day.

Not to worry lads, as the ad do's say, May not post to Ireland, so there won't be any bidding war from over here

Thanks Broithe, I don't doubt that, but when I tried to get it I was told as I have said it's not used anymore for model loco's, so I had to settle for an oil, I got Peco Power-Lube PL-64, seem's to be ok at the moment

HI ALL, WHO ON HERE KNOW'S WHICH IS BEST TO USE WHEN SERVICING A LOCO. I'VE BEEN TOLD NOBODY USES GREASE ANYMORE NOW BUT AN OIL INSTEAD. ANY SUGGESTIONS VERY WELCOME, I WAS TOLD THIS WHEN I TRIED TO BUY HUB-A-LUBE RECENTLY, WHICH MODEL RAIL HAS COMPARED VERY WELL TO OILS IN A RECENT ISSUE,

Anto, just absolutely stunning work, well done mate, don't know just how you do it,

Yeh, and it also looked like the back bone of that loco broke, it even looked worse in slow motion, but don't blame the crane driver, it's the engineer / s who decides the weight,and what the crane will hold, is'nt it, either way, it's going to be expensive,
