  1. On my other Forum, I've just been complaining that the Christmas lights were on in our town last night - somehow, it doesn't seem so out-of-place now..
  2. Indeed, the machines are more like what we used to call 'plotters' in my day....
  3. 3-D Print Show in London - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20047744
  4. Wile E. Coyote speaks less highly of their products..
  5. Some teething problems are worse than others. It still strikes me as a good idea that should be made to work properly. The more people that point out its failures the better, I think..
  6. Something as complex as this will have teething problems, I'm sure - but, they do invite comments - http://transportforireland.ie/feedback/journey-planner/ ...
  7. 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.
  8. Is this the Sub Aqua Unit? Can't quite make out the reg...
  9. If you're laying track inset into a concrete yard situation, then it's important to maintain your concentration throughout the smoothing process...
  10. 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
  11. Genius idea.

A better approach would be necessary for work on your scale and to your standard. Would a brass etch be the answer for levers..?
  14. Wills do a signal box interior kit - http://www.gascupboard.co.uk/signal-box-interior-ssam103.html - if that's any use..?
  15. 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.

  17. 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/
  18. No need - there's a lot to sift through on here..

  20. 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..
  21. A new meaning for the term "shop-soiled"..?
  22. That'll be Javis - http://www.javis.co.uk/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=17&Itemid=116&vmcchk=1
