Why is the younger generation not getting-into Irish railway modeling?
popeye replied to Midland Man's topic in General Chat
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
-
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.
-
Great pictures. What does the letter V stand for?

Magnificent, perfection. Will you put in some passengers? -
I noticed a 201 loco pulling the Enterprise the other day, it looked like it needed a good wash. I'm sure they must have the equipment for cleaning trains. I have seen the carriage washing machines, so why don't they use them?
-
This will be something special.
-
Very nice project and unusual. What was the purpose of the flat wagon? and why did it have those unusual upstands?

Thursday Walkabout on the Main Trunk Line
popeye replied to Mayner's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
Watched a great programme tonight on BBC 4 about a journey by train traveling through New Zealand. A lovely journey showing the landscape and the railway lines with some aerial views of the trains crossing some very high bridges. Also stopping at stations including Hamilton. -
Looking sweet. When painted they will be beautiful.
-
Beautiful work and the colours are very realistic.
