  1. There are some remarkable grades of glass about. Where I used to work, we had the odd explosion and the control room windows were intended to repel any items that came their way - a party-piece, when showing visitors around, was to pick up a handily-placed brick and fling it at the windows as hard as possible. It never even left a mark, but we did have to replace the brick every now and then.
  2. I notice on this picture, just put up on Twitter in the run-up to Movember, that 087 has an odd buffer.
  3. Just work through it - we can wait....
  4. Yeah, they're not very goods-orientated. Did your post originally say 1987? Or is it my eyes - again...?
  5. Looking at my list of Irish Railway books, I see that I already have the 1994 edition, as well. I had a feeling at the time that I saw it that it could be a multi-buy, but, for a quid, I might as well have it.
  6. As reported here - http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/4982-Haywood-Permanent-Way?p=76228&viewfull=1#post76228 - I got this a few days ago - 1987 edition. Anything in particular that you might need from it?
  7. Someone has to keep an eye on you......
  8. I took that to mean 40% of the process is complete, rather than 40$ of the run is sold. I also took it to be 333 sets of 3 wagons to be the intended production run.
  9. Well, I've just ordered a set of three for delivery to darkest Laois - tip me off when they might be about to appear, as I don't want the mother putting them in a bucket of sand and calling the guards.... Ta.
  10. Try the N22.
  11. Are you saying that Kerry is not Heaven?
  12. That's a reasonable defence.
  13. What CV controls the horn?
  14. Over here, we have lots of real ghost trains - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00vhhcf - unfortunately, the recording is not currently available, but the gist of it is there in the summary.
  15. http://nicwhe8.freehostia.com/d5705/australia/australia.html
  16. I have no idea what this is about - https://twitter.com/GuyInAHouse - but it seems to be happening in Connolly.
  17. What happened to the other thirty eight shades?
  18. Whoops - stand down - just one tour as part of Open House, apparently.
  19. Today - - if you're in the vicinity.
  20. Two more crossings hit today.
  21. Silvermines railtour brochure - 1974 - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SILVER-MINES-RAILTOUR-1974-Dublin-Limerick-Clonmel-cie-Ballybrophy-railway-gswr-/371464432426?
  22. Some activity on IÉ over the Movember campaign.
  23. To be honest, I don't really care, but it does seem to matter a lot to some people - it was a cause of great debate on my other forum and a few options seemed to satisfy people.
