    This may be the new C-o-S bridge.
  2. Broithe
    Here - - one side of the dual carriageway was dropped about five feet, to allow oversize loads through, rather than raise the bridge. This sort of thing. It does mean that only the southbound side can be used, even if going north, which does cause a bit of chaos.

    The new bridge at Carrick on Suir will be half a metre higher, in an effort to let somebody else have the Most Struck Bridge Award in future years. http://www.newstalk.com/Most-struck-railway-bridge-in-the-country-to-be-replaced

    Trees down all over the place. IÉ really should drill the trunks, insert a (big) panel pin and mount them into a baseboard hole. Then they would be much more stable and could easily be removed when required.

    The loop platform at Ballybrophy has a slight taper on the outside of the ramps at each end, but it's only following the taper of the platform itself.

    Excellent work. Back in the days of glass headlights, I made some Perspex stone shields by heating the sheet up under the grill.

    We might need limits - the place is full of Daves, as well...

    He can smell these things..... (They're under the corner, where the terraced houses were)

    'We' had a couple of the electrically-powered Hornby OO live steam ones. They were much harder to control than electric-motored versions, obviously, but the one that was second-hand was much easier than the new one - possibly as a result of 'running-in'. The smell was very evocative.

    Baildon, near Leeds - - somewhere out to the north, I suspect - June last year.

    I hope that you also take "measures to minimise the risks of further washouts"....

    It'll be OK to run a couple of trains over this... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-38992241

    We have some seats, over here on the big island, that the CIA use because it's less messy than waterboarding.

    Ha - that was me hassling a friend that doesn't like moths, previous to spotting the Finnyus picture - I really must pay more attention and actually copy the right link...
  18. Broithe
    And IÉ have just used a picture by our own Finnyus. This link - (Not this one - https://www.facebook.com/pg/artisvito2/photos/?tab=album&album_id=953954684680090 - see below)

    The radius looks to be about 80 metres....

    It's been edited - maybe the price was added in as a result of the request? Well, that's what I suspect has happened.

    Arrived just now - perfect timing - nipped out and got back just as the postman was coming up the street. Perfect condition and nicely packed - I'll be sending my Christmas presents to Northman for his wrapping services.

    PM sent - the old Coal Traders ones don't pop up so often these days..

    I had to use the 'big camera' this year - can't get sneaky arm's-length shots with it, but the place seemed slightly less crowded than previous years. The general standard is still rising - such that nothing really stood out above the rest. I couldn't keep track of layout names, but it's included in the shot where it was a viable proposition.
