How's the mem? Just wondering if anyone has pictures of Irish model steam locos in the grey livery? If memory serves (and a lot of the time it doesn't) there was images on here of a J15 and a wollie. Any help appreciated -Thanks!

Get her scanned - https://www.modelu3d.co.uk/3d-scanning/ - you can fit the wheels yourself.

Especially with a pic of a steam engine just above it, krose!
Do the PC brigade allow us to call that locomotive Sambo nowadays?
(I came across a note of a locomotive somewhere once called "Negro"; how times have changed!)
The above engine was actually a bit of a mix of bits from other old locos, and might better have been called "Mongrel"!

Three Irish soldiers had just gotten leave from the Army and decided to celebrate by taking a helicopter ride.
One of the soldiers is eating a banana and says, "I wonder if we’d be able to see it land, if I threw the peel out?"
Out goes the peel and they all watch it but don’t see it land.
One of the others has a rock and says "This is bigger, we should be able to see it land."
They all watch, but don’t see it land. The last one smiles, takes a grenade out of his pocket, pulls the pin and tosses it out of the window shouting
"We’ll see this fecking baby when it hits!!!''
They watch, but still nothing.Walking home they see a little girl crying and they ask, what’s wrong?
"Well I was walking and slipped on a banana peel that came from nowhere."
The soldiers explain what happened and are helping the girl home when they see a little boy sitting on the side of the road holding his head. They ask what happened?
"I was walking when a rock hit me on the head."
They tell the story again and start to wonder what happened to the grenade.
One of them races ahead and sees an old lady laughing hysterically. He asks what’s so funny?
The old lady says, "I just farted and my house blew up!!"-

unusual spot for that turntable Jim - was there an engine shed there at any stage?
