  1. The way this is heading, you have to wonder how long it will be before the carriages will have seat reservation displays...
  2. Lovely stuff! I wonder if there should be a little Italian bistro somewhere? I always read your name on here (without the space) as pasta venue....
  3. A man of your capacity should be able to construct a larger letter box.
  4. My automated search for "Murphy Models" often brings up pictures of young ladies of Irish heritage.
  5. Many people kept the embers glowing for years - MIR, etc - but it was Saint Patrick who fanned it into the flames that we all feel the warmth of now.
  6. I came over on a Honda 125 in September 1975. I remember it being craned on and off at Holyhead, but I have no recollection of what happened at Dun Laoghaire I came again in September 1976, with a 400, and it was RoRo at both sides.
  7. Not a lot to report lately. Some detail of the goods shed masonry and brickwork. Staff Only past this point - and carefully maintaining a watchful eye... Secure tricycle storage is available.
  8. Indeed, but it looks so good, even pre-paint..
  9. That is nice - even the currently visible white marks from the filling would look quite prototypical where I live, on the edge of the salt fields. Particularly the corner of the brickwork - I have efflorescence just like that on my house
  10. Ah, I should have looked further.. The first one came up for me because it was at Ballybrophy, and I have a search logged in for that.
  11. This has turned up on eBay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CIE-SIGNAL-ELECTRICAL-COACH-463A-BALLYBROPHY-5X3-ARCHIVE-PHOTO-1969-N-D-MUNDY/372650853924?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3D360de35d247d4491b5bed56ebd2cca96%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D372650853924%26itm%3D372650853924&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507
  12. Better safe than sorry.
  13. Get a cattle prod and put it on expenses.
  14. A whole hour has gone past now - is his internet down?
  15. I'm having flashbacks (or flashovers) now.. In my previous life, I had some entertaining events with porcelain insulators. If you ever had any particularly crunchy (nut) cornflakes, that could have been bits of the one that I blew up next to the Kelloggs factory in Manchester... Be careful when you first turn it on
  16. Well, mine arrived yesterday - and I arrived this morning. They've only had a cursory glance so far, but are beyond reasonable expectations... The doors seemed to be locked on mine and there's no sign of a key in the bag of bits.
  17. Easter approaches at the 'Hatch.
  18. The mother has been warned - so they don't end up in a bucket of water and the Bomb Squad summoned....
  19. Holy Hell..!!
  20. At least it's the right way up.
  21. I knew it would happen...
  22. If you started the thread, I think you can change the title yourself - try hovering the cursor over it...
