  1. Are you sure they weren't dolomite or gypsum trains, Dave? http://eiretrains.com/Photo_Gallery/Railway%20Stations%20K/Kingscourt/IrishRailwayStations.html#Kingscourt_20110209_001_CC_JA.jpg
  2. I've seen a few photos of ballast trains with single plough vans but the hoppers were always empty, and a lot of those trains appeared to be split rakes. I only recall seeing one photo of a single plough on a loaded train.
  3. Great, now this thread has gone Astra-y.
  4. The BUT set looks great, Kirley. Nice work!
  5. I'm waiting for the day you advertise an entire full-size J26 in kit form, JB...
  6. Glenderg built them for some of his clients but I'm not sure whether he's taking on any more commissions for those particular items... best ask the man himself, though.
  7. Indeed, should've looked closer at the digits following the 7. Unfortunately, they're not available in RTR or kit form but some scratchbuilders here have made them to order in the past.
  8. Hi Jim, Studio Scale Models produce a brass kit for these vehicles: http://studio-scale-models.com/Freight.shtml (Second row down on the page)
  9. Lovely work, Mike. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out.
  10. Warbonnet and I made the trip over on Friday to take care of some IRM business. Mostyn, Liverpool Lime Street and the Forth Bridge in T scale were among the highlights, but the best of the bunch for me was Burntisland.
  11. Excellent work, Kieran!
  12. Hi folks, Just to let you know, ballast wagon pack 1 has sold out on irishrailwaymodels.com. These sets had sold-out previously, but came back into stock as several customers took up the option of swapping some of their purchases for packs 2 and 3 when they were announced. If you are still in need of pack 1, Mark's Models have an allocation. There's a hand-painted sample currently on display at Mark's Models' Hawkins Street premises, too. In other news, I spoke to the factory earlier and we're still on course for delivery in April. The countdown has begun!
  13. Hi Jim, That advert dates from 2014 so there's a good chance the seller no longer has them.
  14. Some good advice here on shopping on Ali Express and how to avoid the pitfalls: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/safe-shop-aliexpress/
  15. Rest assured, Noel, we evaluate our models with a veritable fine-tooth comb.
  16. Looks like an F40PH, JB. Don't think I've ever seen a photo of an SD40 on a passenger working...
  17. Hi Noel, The dimensions on the IRM bubble are accurate. The pre-production sample has been tested on layouts and there were no clearance issues.
  18. Ah, Longford Town FC's net-minder (the dad, not the young fella...)
  19. Hi Keith, You can download that issue of New Irish Lines here: https://newirishlines.org/archive-2/
  20. Hi Stevie, IrishBloke added the price to his post after the request.
  21. The only thing I'd put them under is a passing bus...
  22. Hi IrishBloke, can you include a price please, as per forum rules. Thanks!
  23. Hi Steve, we won't be considering any further ballast runs until the first three sets sell-out.
