  1. Many thanks again for kind comments-as I am fairly new at scratch building it really helps!
  2. Building is complete except for weathering and one or two minor details
  3. Can anybody identify the coach in this vie of Bantry station
  4. The containers really look the part-all in a great setting.Well modelled.
  5. CIE posters for Bantry,Micks Bandon tank outside Bantry shed plus some 1950's photos
  6. Have thought about this as well- will gauge reactions at next club meet.Thanks very much for all comments-they are most appreciated.
  7. Good point David-I went a bit too far with the interior detail-still it was good practice!
  8. We have made some progress on Bantry station building.The basic shell has been assembled and some detailing taken place.The shell is Daler board covered with Evergreen clapboard (now very expensive!).Windows and doors are from Peco (one of the LK Packs)Bricks on the chimney are Slaters and will be painted with Humbrol 121 and detailed with Brick colour (Precision Dark Brick) and also one or two slight colour variations.(pictures later)Furniture is scratch built-not brilliant but it will do! will update as work progresses. Have attached a photo of Bantry station in later years
  9. That trainshed is a superb piece of building David.The painting and weathering is in a different class.
  10. just been on Google.If you search "gaelic script generator bunchlo gc" you will see a heading Gaelic Script for MS windows Go in to this and you will have a list of scripts-click on Bunchlo GC and you should be able to import it to Excel-hope this helps
  11. If you search on Google for this script I believe there is a link to Excel which you can send the file to
  12. Just checked Excel and I believe the script is listed as Bunchlo GC
  13. I searched Google for Gaelic script-there are many variations!I selected the script that by deduction seemed to be correct for Bantry. I clicked on and by some fluke it appeared in my Excel spreadsheet(there is probably a technical method to describe this but I am still in the dark ages!)I then selected the script from the Font drop down box,formatted the area I wanted and typed in Bantry When the scale looked ok I printed it out and stuck it on scratch built name boards.Hope this helps. Thanks very much for for the kind comments.
  14. Very high standard set on these David-really superb work. Should inspire many to scratch build
  15. We have started to detail the bay itself and a wreck of an old fishing boat built (purely fictitious) Also work on the landing stage has started The other photo shows the component parts of the main station building ready to assemble
  16. here are a couple of pics of Leslie's excellent H Vans on Bantry Pier They really look the part-very pleased with them and his excellent service
