  1. Something unspecified, belonging to a dog is welcome.
  2. Brexit is no excuse for our own crowd to rob us blind!
  3. Got a railcar set from them, bypassed customs, got them brought in as hand luggage. Have had enough of An Post fudging and being shaken down by Revenue.
  4. "Troublesome" people being shuffled into made-up jobs is not unknown in that organisation.
  5. Just looks like a bitta fun to me, not everything has to be a po-faced unboxing. Good on them.
  6. A flat roof in a country famously known for its rain. That's archithicks for you.
  7. I already see the whinging about the costs already on the Book of Faces comments section. No-one seems give out about how much it costs to build a road (or Greenway!) in this country.
  8. Was thinking Departmental Grey as another option, for breakdown trains and travelling crew dormitories.
  9. The great and the good in Youghal didn't care much for a railway. Perhaps they're more interested in cycling and walking doggies, who knows? Don't ask, don't get.
  10. Matured with rust from spending a month outdoors.
  11. You'd probably get sued by the types on this side of the water for bullying or PTSD!
  12. A "sigh" alright. A fake. Another person had. A proper one should look like this.
  13. They will have as standard an 00 scale awkward passenger in your booked seat who pretends not to understand the notion of seat reservations and will refuse to vacate. Sets have optional figures involved in unchallenged anti social behaviour
  14. I've noticed the infamous Clonakilty Model Village has turned out reasonably accurate models of Cork and Muskerry and Passage locos...but one NG Passage loco turned out in GREEN. Oh dear. I hope to God they won't run these on the layout, causing even further confusion. But as usual here, some Nuala working in PR thinks they'd look "lovely" all running together.
  15. To be fair to Inda, he was reading off a script given to him by 'researchers' who should have done their jobs properly. I very much doubt Mr Kenny's general knowledge on railways would go far beyond 'Thomas' and 'choo-choo' trains.
  16. Good to see the record set straight after that travesty of a tv series!
  17. Needs "Thomas" paint scheme, face and fake chimney.
  18. Something new for teens to take their angst out on.
  19. The Macroom purchased Ex GS&WR 266, which was inherited from the WL&WR (their No 13 Derry Castle) Saw a pic of it once in C&MDR days, the numberplate (6) looked suspiciously like a GSWR plate with the '2' and the second '6' ground off! 6 was in turn renumbered GSR 491 and singleton of Class 491 but its erstwhile WL&WR classmate No 14 Lough Derg/GSR 267 became the sole member of Class 267.
  20. Something something old timey choo choo train engine is all most people understand!
  21. Looks like it spent a few months in the open, it's not heavily rusted. I doubt it, there's hundreds of these things doing the rounds, even a mini version if you dont have space for a full size one.
  22. Looks like it but has been duplicated and sold at every car boot in the country. The original disappeared some years back.
  23. Lots of fakes in that particular auctioneers, even their apple isnt real!
