    I model Irish Railways CIE & GNRI From 1960's to 1990's.Some are kits & others are bought and kitbashed. some are made from scratch. All rolling stock is wheathered which i think makes all the difference & realistic.I love to see other peoples work & i know how many hours it takes, but it's worth it.

    Jumbo Tar Wagons

    popeye replied to Vlak's topic in Irish Models

    Never seen these before, and Molasses tanks are rare too. I often wondered what was Molasses used for?

    That's good information, Thanks, it's confusing.

    I don't know why it is called MK2 D when it is MK2 E, that's like calling a Jumbo jet a 707. So if you want to respray some coaches into Supertrain livery MK2 D you need MK2 E coaches correct?

    Some of these wagons had operating wheels at both ends, probably at first and then later removed. Here is a picture of one at Downpatrick. Not my picture.

    How about this one from Kibri 38530 for around £ 50. You could paint it light grey. They might be a bit hard to find.

    Excellent work. Very neat and tidy, they look like a well thought out kit.

    Looks great, your an artist. I think adding people helps a scene.

    What's the point of putting fragile tape all round it. I don't think these people can read. You might be better to write human remains it might get a bit more respect.

    That's a nice job, you make it look easy.

    I think it would look better if it was weathered. You have a grey one and lots of B & T so it might be better to keep that livery for a bit of variety. your call.

    That all looks lovely Patrick. It's nice to see all the GN buildings together and the vans look great. I'm looking forward to more progress.
  14. popeye
    Yes, i think something like that would look great.
