You could try Alan Gibson - http://www.alangibsonworkshop.com/Catalogue.pdf - see page 17 part no. 4M123 and just use the 22 + 22 pieces - there is a risk the hole size may not suit, though.

Oxford say it's not released - http://www.oxforddiecast.co.uk/eras/1_76_0__Current.htm TMC have it for pre-order - http://www.themodelcentre.com/76FTC003/ So, just keep your eyes open. I would say.....

If you find that you've bought more "water" than you need, you could have a go at this....

Could be - he's been quiet lately......

Great stuff - this picture just needs Heirflick peeping over the wall...

Maybe there are regulatory deadlines approaching?

As Eoin O'Mahony says - - "the station always makes me think the line was stopped suddenly and could break out at any minute."

IÉ have retweeted this nice shot of Sligo station.

I am an authority on murky things...

I might be wrong, but I always thought "eau de nil" was "Nile water", hence a sort of murky pale green. In the old days, it would even be written eau de Nil.

I see the thread title has been fixed and my "clever" comment has become redundant... Nice work, though - the models, that is, not my comment....

When I had a proper job, we had a licence-building arrangement in Macon, Georgia, for just that reason - they wouldn't buy the stuff unless they could pretend it was what they like to call "native". We had endless trouble with the stuff they assembled and once, in a meeting about it with my extremely humourless boss, he declared that "These Americans - they're just a bunch of cowboys!" Everybody started laughing and he just couldn't see why. So I said, "Actually, John, some of them are Indians", and he thought I was being racist about immigrants from the Indian sub-continent. It was like working in a mental hospital.

600 of them, apparently, as a result of the disappointing performance of the Airacobra, until the Mustang came on line. A similar situation to what drove them to the Spads the first time round....

The Canberras got a lot wider when Martin got hold of them.... All I could thing of was the Spads a hundred years ago..

There are few examples of the US military buying foreign - the only one that I can think of off-hand, the AV-8, is theirs now, in effect, the UK doesn't even have any Harriers left flying.

Ryanair didn't win the bidding, then?

I only have a two-digit number plate..... You can make currencies work for you - some people have some very strange ideas about exchange rate arithmetic...

Mmmm, I've got the same badge on the front as their new ones have.... ..I'll just head North and hide out at yours..

I'm going to start using £/s/d again and see what happens. "I'll give you thirty bob for it.."

I wonder if that excuse would work if I was caught at 60mph in a 60kph zone?

If somebody did it the other way round, you would be able to hear the moaning on your side of the water....

Indeed, everybody wins - it wouldn't happen over here, though...

The seeds from the local willows used to blow in and I often thought of getting something Yank, as we had 00 scale tumbleweed blowing around - but it did get into the works sometimes. Flies often seemed quite suicidal - we had a few track fatalities. Just to the right of the suspension bridge, you might see four of these Fleischmann expansion joints - looking like a crossing. ..they saved us a lot of trouble on the long straights..

I'll send you an invoice - in Euros - with VAT.... Apart from a few leaks, we never had much water trouble - the rain never got in much above the baseboard level. The heat was the greatest problem, in fact - apart from expanding the rails a bit, it shrank the woodwork a lot as it dried out after the winters. The cold was just unpleasant, but didn't do much harm - it made the live steamer very impressive - I have some video of that somewhere.... It was well worth putting up with the problems for the sheer size of it - I once got a Murphy 181 and a few coaches to take 11 minutes to go all round it. Even at a reasonable speed, a train would go over the crossover into the garage and be almost forgotten about before it came out again..
