  1. Something as complex as this will have teething problems, I'm sure - but, they do invite comments - http://transportforireland.ie/feedback/journey-planner/ ...
  2. Irish Rail have just tipped me off about this new national journey planner - http://www.journeyplanner.transportforireland.ie/nta/XSLT_TRIP_REQUEST2?language=en - it might come in handy for attending shows, etc. Covers almost all public transport.
  3. Is this the Sub Aqua Unit? Can't quite make out the reg...
  4. If you're laying track inset into a concrete yard situation, then it's important to maintain your concentration throughout the smoothing process...
  5. IÉ currently have a picture of it up on the info about the Low Rail Adhesion situation that can occur around this time of year - plus an interesting little rail-side device - http://www.irishrail.ie/blog_post.jsp?blogID=1&a=330
  6. Genius idea.
  7. Thought that might smoke you out..!
  8. I could see that coming. To be honest, the kit is hardly worth that, they need a good bit of fettling to sharpen them up a bit, but are maybe worthwhile for doing a one-off small box. A better approach would be necessary for work on your scale and to your standard. Would a brass etch be the answer for levers..?
  9. Wills do a signal box interior kit - http://www.gascupboard.co.uk/signal-box-interior-ssam103.html - if that's any use..?
  10. Presumably because the yard lights were deemed to be sufficient illumination. I think that I can remember the headlights being knocked off when passing through stations.
  11. There's one on here, although it's at night.
  12. This is an interesting project - http://www.networkrail.co.uk/VirtualArchive/ Pointed out to me by my friend - historian Paul O'brien - http://paulobrienauthor.com/
  13. No need - there's a lot to sift through on here..
  14. Some discussion here - http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/950-Lidl-Airbrush-Set-with-Mini-Air-Compressor?
  15. Irish Rail tweet from yesterday - A Truck has hit Custom House Quay Bridge. Services stopped between Connolly & Tara St. Update to follow - It all seemed to get sorted fairly quickly..
  16. A new meaning for the term "shop-soiled"..?
  17. That'll be Javis - http://www.javis.co.uk/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=17&Itemid=116&vmcchk=1
  18. The spiral stairs will send him mad(der)..
  19. Don't try to hide in a Smart car...!!?
  20. New boat-train service to be introduced - cutting out the middle-man. Predicted for the year 2000, so 12 years late is fair enough..
  21. The preliminary Board of Inquiry says that it was down to the predictive text in their sat-nav putting in Port Lairge when the navigator thought he was putting in Portland - simple error, any of us could have done it..
  22. Irish Rail on Twitter said -- To the opportunist surfers, boaters, canoeists, divers, fishermen etc tweeting, we will not be hosting watersports in Waterford Stn No mention of equestrians..
  23. Green traction. Four horse-power, water-cooled..
