  2. A friend of mine (irishtrains on instagram, for photo credit) sent me this shot last night, taken the day of the incident. Could be just me but it seems it's got a decent bend in the middle?
  3. Yeah, I knew the wagons were used for braking force, any idea why they replaced the second tank/container with the spoil though?
  4. This was in Waterford on Wednesday, isn't that a section of a spoil wagon between the tank and the loco?
  5. Hi, After a derailment a few parts off my 082 went missing. I got on to Murphy Models' customer service but they said the parts would cost €31 without postage, so I thought I might as well ask here to see if I could get them for a lower price... The parts I need are as follows: The red brake wheel on the main loco body The brake hose on the front A center brake cylinder off one of the bogies. Thanks, Kevin
  6. That's perfect, thanks so much for the help!
  7. Hi lads, I just have a quick question about the installments that you can pay with the bank transfer option; How often do they have to be paid? Like is it monthly or do ye have a different plan for it? Many thanks, Kevin
  8. Yeah, the staff told us that the boiler pressure dropped too low because the fire died. They also couldn't get 85 into gear, which delayed us further. 087 then came to rescue us, as Railer said. I'd say the RPSI will get quite a hard time from IE though, I think there was about 4 or 5 services severely delayed because of us!
  9. Thanks for the help, I'll probably save up for the SSM chassis because I was only looking for it to be a quick project over the summer! Sorry it took so long for me to reply - exams got in the way! Thanks again - Kevin
  10. Hi guys, I was just wondering whether anyone knows of a suitable donor chassis that would fit the SSM "Merlin" kit, as it would be a bit outside my budget to purchase the gearbox, crankpins, motor and wheels from them along with the kit. Thanks!
  11. Merlin also looked great in Limerick Junction as it waited for 085 to arrive with the rake of Cravens
  12. Still no luck, this is the error message I'm getting: "There was a problem processing the uploaded file. -200"
  13. I don't seem to be able to attach the photos, I get a notification saying that the upload failed every time I try to attach them to the message
  14. I'm not sure if this is the right section to put this in, but 111 worked a recovery service today for 228 which failed while working the 20.50 Enterprise on Tuesday. I took a photo of it as it powered through Dundalk with 228 in tow, which is attached to this comment. I also have a few photos of (8)111, 228 and 074 in Connolly which I took earlier this evening, which I can post tomorrow if ye want to see them!
  15. Wow, she's looking good! Nice work!
  16. The Emerald Isle Explorer stopped in Mallow today on it's way to Killarney (it departed Dublin Connolly this morning) so I went and took a few photos of it. Here's a few for those of you that are interested!
  17. It is a strange one indeed Tony!
  18. A friend of mine found a 201 on DoneDeal, what do ye think? Here's the link: https://www.donedeal.ie/hobbies-for-sale/irish-rail-201-class-locomotive-old-intercity/15655588
