  1. The wife will be looking for the knobs off the chest of drawers. But you could wire the drawers up with point motors.
  2. Nice reefer. What's the island in the distance?
  3. Yes, it looks great with that beautiful back scene.
  4. Interesting signal cabin at Dromod with the chimney at the front. I'm sure there was others like that.
  5. OMG Beautiful, I love the last picture.

    IRM Fert Wagon

    Now that will need another rerun.
  7. I think this might be the one you are thinking of. Picture from steamtrainsireland.com
  8. Yes they are Bachmann bogies. There is a small round stub that fits into the middle of the bogie and then use a small screw and washer to keep it in place.
  9. You never know, they could be next on the list, but don't hold your breath. I would like a grey one. Never liked them at first but now they have grown on me.
  10. Shapeways 42ft 3d printed 42ft flat wagons. I got these about 2 years ago and finally got them finished. They are very nicely printed and I used Bachmann bogies and Railtec transfers.
  11. I got 2 Dapol 45ft containers the other day. P & O Ferrymasters yellow & Samskip. These are Highcube and you need to attach the locking bars yourself. I have 2 made by Bachmann so I have put them side by side for comparison. The print on the Dapol ones are very poor. The Bachmann ones are on the left.
  12. I love those benches, they really look the part.
  13. Great detail in every scene. Very nice.
  14. I got one of those and the Stobart road sweeper a couple of weeks ago and they are beautiful.
  15. Great Layouts, very well done to you all I notice from the pictures that there seems to be a lot more diesel layouts now and less steam, in Ireland anyway.
  16. As the transfers are white, any problem areas can be touched up with paint.
  17. They look great. I use Microsol to soften transfers but it depends on the transfer. I would think MIR transfers would be older, thicker and maybe a little brittle, so keep the ones you have and put lots of Microsol on and let it soak for a while. Some small transfers can be thinner and just melt with Microsol. They are always tricky to work with. Good luck.
  18. It's got great detail and it would look good on display in a cabinet.
