heirflick Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 excelent layout jack and thanks for posting. is it your own ? love the rolling stock and the scenery is fantastic! any chance of a look at the ' behind the scene operations'? love that railcar!!! Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Great videos thanks for sharing Quote
Jack_Dunboyne Posted November 23, 2012 Author Posted November 23, 2012 @heirflick - it's not my layout all videos were done during The Model Railway Society of Ireland exhibition last month. Quote
Warbonnet Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Very nice. Despite the popularity of Irish Narrow Gauge as modelling subjects we don't seem to get much of it on the site. There's a nice Irish NG layout in the current Model Railway Journal which I picked up last night purely for a gander at the porno that this Hornsey Broadway http://www.emgauge70s.co.uk/layout_hornsey.html Quote
heirflick Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 stunning workmanship there fran....this shot is poetry! Quote
Warbonnet Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 stunning workmanship there fran....this shot is poetry![ATTACH=CONFIG]4106[/ATTACH] Pretty much everything on that side is amazing, full of inspiration for any modeller, not just those of us who love British 70s modelling! Quote
RedRich Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Letterkenny is one beautiful layout. Everything on it is top class work. The scenics, the buildings, the railway infrastructure, the rolling stock. I could look at it for hours. Although they need to sort out the electrics to stop the hand from the sky having to be used at exhibitions. Rich, Quote

There's a nice Irish NG layout in the current Model Railway Journal which I picked up last night purely for a gander at the porno that this Hornsey Broadway http://www.emgauge70s.co.uk/layout_hornsey.html Fran you are correct it's another piece of pure class from Kier Hardy. I haven't seen it in the flesh, but I have seen Wibdenshaw and that's another epic piece of work. I've had a few small 00 gauge layouts in my lifetime and I used Peco track throughout and there's nothing wrong with it. The last layout I built was more of a scenic type P4 layout just featuring a part of the lineside and no buildings. I managed to squeeze in a few points they were my first attempts and weren't great but they worked just about. Kier Hardy is an amazing modeller and his track work is sublime, from the building side and the finished look of the painted and weathered track you have to blink to make sure it is only a model. Wibdenshaw is one of the models that has inspired me to have a go at the wider Irish gauge, God help me. It could take years as I predict lot's of mistakes. But it should be a good learning curve and I hope the end result will be worth it. Rich, Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 http://www.emgauge70s.co.uk/ That's it Fran I'll be doing nothing more today only looking at that site One of your big Yank locos would look good in the above picture Quote
heirflick Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 jesus...thats a model? superb work! Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Its amazing how weathering can totally transform a model Seamus Quote
RedRich Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 It's amazing Seamus. This guy is at the top of his game and truly one of the best modellers in his field. It's one of the greatest examples of weathering a model and photographing it in the correct lighting. It just looks so realistic. There's a few lads in the UK modelling scene that are great weatherers of models, great track builders, and fantastic photographers. When all are combined this is what you get. Rich, Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Seamus I think you are heading towards the dark side don't look round leave the light and come into the dark=)) Quote
Warbonnet Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Seamus I think you are heading towards the dark side don't look round leave the light and come into the dark=)) He'll be wanting the Blue Pullman back. As much as I love the yank stuff, I will always have my main interest in the British stuff since the early 60's, just so much variety, good looking locos and somewhat familiar locations. Quote
heirflick Posted November 23, 2012 Posted November 23, 2012 Seamus don't look round leave the light and come into the dark=)) jesus anto, are you asking me out on a date? Quote
