I love Irish stuff and have a fair bit of it, but I run a bit of everything, won't be any particular era which I know isn't everyones cup of tea.

I put the green colour on the wall as a nod to the old CIE livery.

I am a confirmed DC only man, will probably be 4 lines (1st to 4th radius), passing loops, long sidings, lots of full length trains like the old layout, lots of operational potential.

Very old fashioned in the approach I know, but that's just me!!

Sounds my kinda railway I'm DC and a fellow attic layout too

Crying out for a little bit of narrow gauge track inlaid in cobbles coming under that door! 

If only

The new east pier is now home to the world Famous Saint James Gate Guiness brewery so the area will be host to plenty of visitors for a creamy pint of the black stuff and tourists can easily access it via the new Docklands station or by ferry in the harbour ⛴ or even open top tour buses

More detail to add over time..

Cant wait to see this progress what era you planning to model?

With a Guinness train servicing it?

The plan is for the ports sidings to see them as regular visitors

New east pier added to the layout today. 
The plan is for it to be home to a low relief brewery it nicely hems in the harbour walls too ⛴

Great to see this layout resurrected! 

Cheers mate appreciate that 

Extended the track and platform of the Docklands station today. The station can now accommodate 22000 3 Car DMUs. 

No your eyes dont deceive you, the Harbour Police were busy out clamping.. the merc driver should of checked their parking ticket

The docklands town scene is taking shape.. between Harbour House office block and the customs house is nestled my scratch built/kit bashed Docklands below ground station entrance & passenger platform lift..

More to follow on the new station and platform works..

It's all in the details.. wonder does it still take call cards? #eircom

The evening liner train pulled by 071 exits the Port of Fingal on route to the west of Ireland. Vehicular traffic halts at the ports level crossing awaiting for it to pass..

Amazing buildings.

Did you build them?

They are all kits I bought and built generally..

Most of buildings are faller, kibri, bachmann and superquick with some older Hornby town & country kits from the 1990s. 

I have a fondness for town planning and love planning accurate scenes with plenty of details to bring them life.. 

Plenty of activity captured by the resident train spotters DMU & Freight traffic around the port today along with ports own emergency services out at a shout ⛴

Great news

Ths lockdown has allowed me to reset up in the attic.. the IE 22000 DMU that arrived under the Christmas tree got its first run out this evening.. its a very smooth runner

The layout is all intact after protracted storage and just in need of abit of TLC and the scenery & buildings reinstalled 

Look great Jan

Really enjoyed today.. great seeing Paddy Murphy and 121s..

Picked up some Tara's too from Wrenn Eire great looking wagons

Very envious of the 22000 will have to speak ECB to see if they will extend out a loan for purchasing one of these for Fingal County

There were the latest prices a while back, they might have gone up a little since.

They are built to order so you could be looking at around a year give or take a few months as it's not "his day job" so to speak. I got 3 sets of his 2600 DMUs a while back in all liveries and are great models, fantastic finish on them.

Hey DeD

Do you know is he still making the DMUs? 

Cheers
