  1. Agreed. It was borderline condescending in places... at one point what the narrator was saying basically boiled down to 'commuters use the Dart to go to work'. Surely 99.9% of the population know what the Dart is and what it's for? I'm all for programmes like this being produced in a way that the general punter can understand, but there's no excuse for that. Also... the 'talking heads' they brought in looked uncomfortable in front of camera, especially Michael Barry. It was hard to keep track of what he was talking about at times. The footage is in there... somewhere.
  2. Well, that was a waste of a half-hour... inoffensive fluff.
  3. Cheers. Only thing that annoyed me about it was that I would've liked to have had the guys facing the opposite direction during the interview (to avoid the shadows), but some rubberneckers had moved in after the ceremony and didn't want them waving at the camera when talking about something like that... Any photos of that, Seamus?
  4. As you probably know, yesterday was Armistice Day. While most people associate it with commemorations for war dead in the UK, there were also ceremonies held here to remember the Irishmen who fought and died in World War I. In Longford, the local branch of Óglaigh Náisiúnta na hÉireann held a commemorative ceremony at the the WWI memorial in the town's Market Square. Here's some footage I shot of the event: http://www.longfordleader.ie/news/local/video-armistice-day-commemoration-1-4469527
  5. You know what? You could probably chop out a piece of sleeper and replace it with the magnet... seems a perfect fit and would make it even less noticeable.
  6. A Terrier chassis might be a bit big for 90... SSM produce a kit for the MGWR E class (J26).
  7. We'd better organise a whip-around!
  8. Hi John, there appears to be a problem with the images you attached. Could you re-upload them? Would love to see them... Edit: it's fixed now... excellent work, as always!
  9. Bodge? Whatever are you on about!? It looks just right to me... good job!
  10. Great photos, Kirley! Bleach Green looks fabulous.
  11. All hail Chicharito! I wouldn't say it was a great game of football, though... I thought a lot of the players looked sluggish out on the field today.
  12. Sounds like it was a great evening.
  13. Woodland Scenics products are also very effective (not sure if this is EZ Water or another product from their range): [video=youtube_share;Z1BX4OI9rtk]
  14. Did anyone here attend this? How was it?
  15. Huge difference between Cobalt motors and Tortoise... the Cobalt is far more compact.
  16. Over the video or the thoughts of Hooters?
  17. It's kind of weird when you look at the steam engines in that video and realise they're all still around, while the 'modern' train at the start - the Bo-Bo GMs and the Mk2s - have all since been reduced to razorblades...
  18. Cool, thanks.
  19. Lightweight!
  20. They look more like infantry lads with a bad case of cav envy to me!
  21. It's really starting to take shape... lovely stuff!
  22. We really should've had this one all along...
  23. Not a Celtic fan at all, but I watched the game because I couldn't get to a TV with Sky Sports to watch the Man United game. It was one hell of a performance... blood and guts! And Forster was like a brick wall in front of the goals!
  24. They were in bad luck with the personalities they hired for promos... they had Gary Glitter in a magazine campaign as well!
