Stunning, another box ticked. Can't wait. 

I see they have little pegs underneath for fitting to the wagons, so will they still have the yellow pegs for containers?

Very nice.

The primer will show up little flaws but then you can correct these before the final painting.

Would love to do a tour of inchicore someday if they still do them.

Wouldn't we all. May be someone could organize this in the future. 

It's starting to look like Inchicore. 

Looks like a hurricane has past through. 

Fantastic, are you doing all of Dublin?  

Is he on the wrong line?

What does he do if a train comes?

That's great for a first attempt.

You will learn a lot from the first one and roofs are always difficult to get on.

Good job. 

Super job, all the grime in between the planks makes a big difference. 

I think it helps if you grew up near a railway line and then model that era as it is what you grew up with.

That's what happened with me.

But i do model irish trains that i have never seen in my life. and that is because i have seen them in

books, DVD's and internet.

Lovely, hard to tell which is the real one. 

Excellent, so much great detail.

Nice to see some people added.

Who's the guy with the bald head? A monk? 

I was wondering if you take off the keg cages will there be any little yellow lugs supplied to use

for container loads.?

Excellent, very real

I'm thinking that stocking up on gift cards is the answer.

That's the way to go. Just the same as pre pay. 

The good old days, very nice. 

The North Down Model Railway Society has been postponed from April until 5-6 of Sept 2020

This will be reviewed in July-August.

WOW, you won't want to do that again.

Just thinking how many times you will catch something on it and break a bit off. 

It's nice to see a picture of Castlegregory station, i have been looking for photos and that's the first i've seen.

My grandmother came from there. 

I adjusted the image a bit for you.

I got one of these recently in HO scale and it needs a lot of lead in the back end.

Nice  

He is overloading that bay 

Beautiful, so realistic. 

Needs a few people, dogs, seagulls etc. 

The plough vans look great.

The lettering does come of if you rub at it to much and enamel thinners would make it worse.

I lost a few letters on one side and hand painted them on again.

Maybe a coat of varnish put on first and left for 48 hours might protect it before you start adding dirt.

Thanks, i was wondering about the middle ones.

I'll probably leave the loads in but it would be nice to have some extra loads for the freight yard and on the forklift truck.

These will look great weathered, beautiful, can't wait.

The pallet loads look amazing.

So if the top bars can be removed the loads can be taken out, cool.
