It sounds like you're trying to access the old Irish Railway Modeller Forum (now closed and has no connection to this one), which was hosted on a service called Yuku, which has now become Tapatalk.

Private Oil Shunter in Dublin Docks?
Garfield replied to Auto-Train Original's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
You're not imagining it. Irish Shell had a small Hibberd locomotive used to shunt their sidings off Alexandra Road. It's now preserved by the RPSI in Whitehead. -
A nice model of the Timoleague & Courtmacsherry Light Railway's 'Argadeen'. I'm not sure how authentic the lined green livery is, though.
-
From the ad: "For sake of clarity loco and carriages being sold together" A set of Murphy RPSI Mk2 coaches are also included.
-
If a better place was available, then they'd be there.

Gorgeous new IRM Branding goes live to mass acclaim!
Garfield replied to Westcorkrailway's topic in Site News & Help
It's not a glitch. -
They're not being cut up. The truck is the same one used for recent stock transfers to Downpatrick and Maam Cross. My money is on these items being transferred to the latter.

That's because it's a special edition packed in an exclusive presentation trailer...

Hi folks, Can we leave the switchblades and knuckle-dusters at the front door and get the thread back on topic? Thanks!

Ernies Massive Irish 1930's to 2005 Photo Archive
Garfield replied to Glenderg's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
Quite a feat considering it went bust and was divided between CIE and the UTA in 1958. A fair share of the GNR's passenger services, including the 'Enterprise', were operated by AEC and BUT diesel railcar sets in its latter years. -
@Noel - schedules can be found here https://accurascale.co.uk/pages/project-status Per the latest update provided via the mailing list and on social media, the Deltics will arrive at our warehouse during the coming week. Such questions would be better asked in the section linked to below rather than in the CIE magnesite wagon thread, though: https://irishrailwaymodeller.com/forum/25-british-outline-modelling/

You should see the hole in the floor after that drop test...
-
In fairness, @Noel, we've explained to you more than once the reasoning why it's not possible to lower the NEM pockets on this stock. At this stage I'm not sure if you've simply forgotten or just ignoring what we've told you...
-
There was one in Limerick as late as 2014 but it was scrapped along with some other long-withdrawn wagons when the works and station areas were redeveloped in recent years.

IE have been running a recruitment drive for apprentices over the last while: https://www.irishrail.ie/en-ie/about-us/company-information/career-opportunities-at-iarnrod-eireann/apprenticeship-programme (Incidentally, the closing date for applications is today...)

But as a pre-existing unit, if converted it would be covered by grandfather rights...

B233 and B234 were Maybach-engined C Class locos, not A Class. Very interesting locos and the only Metro-Vicks to ever work in multiple while in service (C231 has since worked in multiple with 146 in preservation at Downpatrick).
-
I just happen to have this in my collection - from later CIE years so it doesn't include the turnouts for the shed or the cattle bank, but may be of use for the arrangement of signals: I walk by the goods shed in Moate a few times a week and I keep meaning to measure it for my own purposes, but haven't got around to doing it yet.
-
No problem! Yes, those windows were found elsewhere, and are still evident on the goods shed in Longford, which was a larger MGWR type: https://www.google.ie/maps/@53.7238677,-7.7965482,3a,15y,260.16h,86.24t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sUw00hAS_CLgu4dktQG57-g!2e0!7i16384!8i8192

There were larger sheds built from cut stone, not strictly standardised but there were many similarites between them. The sheds at Dromod and Multyfarnham, for example...

This is what they were going for...

I wouldn't know... I live in Ireland...
-
Already mentioned earlier in this thread, but Six Shooter is a good one, with plenty of Cravens interior shots and 'classic' Network Catering attitude...
-
Just to clarify, we no longer accept them.
