186 Wicklow June 2005, and two different liveries on the same carriage...

Some camcorder footage of the delightful GS&WR 186 arriving at Wicklow with the heritage set on a private charter, 22nd June 2005.

Look closely at laminate brake 1916 behind the loco... I believe the odd modeller has used this technique to create the illusion of two different carriage sets. A prototype for everything indeed.

I have given consideration to applying different running numbers to the opposite sides of my stock, especially the harder to regauge ballasts and bubbles to "double" what I have but in order for the  illusion to work I need to be able to turn complete rakes somewhere on the layout and that requires a significant reversing loop. I haven't completely given up on the idea though. It definitely has merit.
