All the progress made and Silver Fox continues to be stuck in reverse gear. Feed the gullible and line your pocket while your at it Dont forget how upset people are re some RTR coaches being the wrong colour etc. At least they were what they were were. They were not gristle dressed as steak
-
The ideal chance to create a proper replica of a D and its lost......
-
Did you read this bit on the ITG site? If your offered money for something thats going to sit and rot/get wrecked otherwise take it. Preservation involves a lot of realism, not just hopes and dreams
-
Sounds like he had bitten off way more than he could chew, the only company that has got better after a takeover is Shawplan
-
Can do a lot better, SSM being a good starting point
-
Where are you based, how much are you willing to pay and do you have kits/donor Mk3's
-
IE did want the RPSI out at one point but given the interconnector will not not happen there is no rush. The eventual plan is for a separate base. As a member of the Dublin carriage crew there is plenty to do
-
And what happens when their boiler tickets expire . No need for them all to be in service together. Dont forget the carriages too, thats where the revenue/passengers travel
-
Why couldn't you just ring instead of asking here?
-
Detonators are now kept in the cabs rather than the drivers having to carry them... was a freak accident sadly
-
Patience, just start with lines/borders 1st, get them right and then experiment
-
Stick (ahem) with the Tamiya, does not leave residue and if you gently apply it it wont bleed
-
Theres your problem - Never skimp on paint and prep - Tamiya masking tape all the way. Marks Models in Dublin sell it You dont necessarily have to remove the old paint. Get a can of Halfords plastic primer, give it a blast and see how it looks then. Failing that paint stripper or brake fluid. Always do a test run with a cotton bud first though, could dissolve the plastic
-
What brand of masking tape are you using and what base coat?

The Euro shops do the kids fibre optic strands from time to time, even cheaper and battery operated......
-
How many times have you burnt yourself with the soldering iron?? No pain, no gain
-
Had a couple of ribs removed have we? I think the D part does all the work, your just along for the ride
-
My sources are from within the trade. Hattons no longer being a stockist is more to do with how they sell the product rather than the product itself
-
Hattons are no longer a Murphy Models stockist - that is all
-
Whats the problem with being honest then?? Cant say anything at all now without being hopped on by the do-gooders brigade
-
Im not being negative - Im being realistic.
-
Of those 555 how many will actually actively do something more than offer encouragement via social media
-
Not long to go now...
-
Dont think they realised how bad/unreadable it would be, 078,085 and 087 all have their old numbers applied on the sides/ends along with the gobbledegook/phone number.....
