  1. The Bridge on the River Kwai is not the only bridge that could cause you problems in Thailand. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-35491852
  2. Or a definitive religious documentary, with Bhuddist convert, Father Jack Hacket, shouting "Phuket" at regular intervals?
  3. They could do a Hiberno-Thai remake of The Kwai-et Man.....
  4. I wonder if they had a little steam engine called Siambo?
  5. You would need to treat the oranges like ballast, and glue them in place for safe running.
  6. There appears to be no yellow line.
  7. "Amazing" is barely an adequate word - this would be a difficult feature to include.
  8. Can I suggest that, if anybody is interested in modelling the railways of Thailand, that they have a good selection of excuses ready for the results that searching for 'Thai models' will bring up..?
  9. Well deserved.
  10. Excellent. I look forward to a Midlands excursion one day...
  11. You can do it with one DC controller, by isolating sections of track, so that you can select which engine you are controlling at the time. Or, if you are DCC, then you have no problem.
  12. This is next weekend, if you're passing by. Allegedly the biggest show in the Midlands, after Warley, and a lot more civilised. If you do go, beware of the boggy car-parking. It was quite an issue a few years ago. I was up there a couple weeks ago and it was fairly soft then. Also check for motorway roadworks. Not too much of an issue at weekends, but the odd slip-road closure has occurred, though mostly at night. And avoid driving through Stafford itself - it's a minefield. The A34 to the south of the town, in particular, is virtually impassable.
  13. Tie them to lampposts on Salthill Prom during the next big storm.
  14. New rolling stock on view at the Westport celebrations.
  15. There's an offer not to be sniffed at.
  16. Or do a bank job..?
  17. Will the pneumatics actually work for loading and unloading? Is 00 scale cement powder available?
  18. Maybe IRM will do some N stuff soon.....
  19. Lovely. I've always said that if I ever have twins, they're going to be called Regan and Carter. The chap who played Haskins in The Sweeney was in our local outdoor Shakespeare do one year - unfortunately, it wasn't King Leer, which features the character of the King's daughter, Regan...
  20. Some previous chat about gradients - and an even more previous one referred to in the second post. http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/3739-Gradients?highlight=gradients
  21. Perfection, we are prepared to wait for....
  22. Is that grass that's actually growing in the joints - or possibly just the remains of strewn straw?
  23. The Royal Mail restrictions are quite complicated. http://www.royalmail.com/business/help/sending/restricted-goods
  24. Ratio do a kit for what they call a Cattle Dock. I've always called them Cattle Banks, though I've not had many conversations about them.
  25. Ballybrophy's was still extant in 2008.
