i did step on it...purely for research purposes - and it does the job!

try it now

was over at Lough Owel yesterday evening and visiting a spot where i spent many a day dossing as a nipper. never knew level crossings had letter boxes...... then saw this either side of the crossing... the pyramid shapes are made of hard rubber - am i right in assuming that they are to keep animals or is it us humans from entering the area? and for you brainey lads out there...how would you model a mat like that? finally a clip of a railcar on the way to sligo.... bring back the noisy diesels...very hard to hear these comming - would scare the crap out of you

great vid gm! thanks for posting:tumbsup:

ak - if i get any more relaxed i will slip into a coma! - still wont change my mind on that livery.

class picture! if only there was a model of them.........

too much guinness when on the production line Eamonn?

hi tony - you stirred up some great memories of that crane! best of luck with the project and post pics as you go:)

.... oh what have they done? its horrible! give me the old livery any day of the week and twice on Sunday. i think the green just does nothing for the appearence of the railcar. i remember saying similar when the grey 071's appeared but that grew on me quickly - this wont! they need to break the colour with a stripe down the side and get rid of the gloss finish.

thanks for posting the thread Nir - every day is a learning day!!

never noticed before - are they are the same wagon, showing different sides?

superb work - cant wait to see the finished layput. love the massy!

lads, to re ask Westys question - how many left now?

'I spent some time in the cold and damp shed tonight....' be honest Eamonn-you were in the dog house for putting trains before 'she who must be obeyed'!! great work there ...inspirational modelling at its best!

stunning work!

mystery solved lads - thanks!

this puzzles me....thought all tenders were filled from the top, not the bottom as in the pic......

i fear you shall burn in hell for that remark!

then we will decend on the shop at 11.45 and get bargans galore...since you should be well hammered by then - espically drinking that stuff! be a man and drink guinness!!! better still give us a shout and we'll drink some stout to numb your pain

couldnt help it...
