  1. Grey primer should do nicely and then lots of dirt, they will look great. Happy and safe driving.
  2. Have a look at ID backscenes, I got a couple and they are great. They do a good selection and some can be joined together so the hill height matches.
  3. They did come up with some crazy designs. You could try taking a picture outside in daylight, it would look more natural, I know it's cold out there but it would be nice to see the difference.
  4. Having all the right tools makes life soo much easier.
  5. Very nice models and the paint work is perfect.
  6. Looks very nice sitting on the grass, ready to fly. ============
  7. Totally perfect and the lining would be a tedious job.
  8. Could the pocket be turned to face the other way without hitting the bogie and then attach the coupling.
  9. Lots of space, you can do Belfast to Cork in that space.
  10. Lovely selection, love the Lisburn picture with the old signals. Keep them coming.
  11. Somebody left their luggage behind
  12. Great pictures for anyone thinking of putting one of these together.
  13. I'll have to get one of those. I wonder if I could park it on the road.
  14. That's a good size of a room so you won't have to squeeze it all into a small space. White walls and ceiling will help to soften the light. This will have a lot of interesting scenes in it and it will be nice to see it progress. Good luck.

    Customs & VAT

    So, what happens if some things are motorised like a loco and you buy some coaches to go with it, all bought together. Is there one code used or two? I bought some coaches from Marks Models in Dublin to be sent to N. Ireland and no problems. But it does make buying from the EU a bit scary. And also for anyone in Ireland buying from England.

    Customs & VAT

    It's a bit of a minefield, why don't Kernow just use the electric trains code, I don't think the Customs people would know the difference and it would be better for their customers. Sometimes you might buy several items that fall into both categories, so which code do you use then?
  17. That's a nice group. I was looking at my 073 yesterday and I thought they are nicely weathered especially around the bogies.
  18. Walking Britain's lost Railways is on tonight Fri 19th Channel 5 at 7.00pm. Tonight it is about N.Ireland starting in Belfast.
  19. They look like they have been already torpedoed.
  20. Will it have a crew? Must be near done now.
  21. Very informative. How many of us look after our rolling stock like that?
  22. Where did you get that?? I like the underframe but the top looks a bit plastic. When weathered down it will be nice.
  23. Here are a few pictures I took at Belfast docks a while back if they are of any use to you. You can also try looking up a website for Kelly coal boats, it might have something on it.
  24. The weathering on the steam loco's looks amazing and 141 is pretty good too.
  25. First, second and third class.
