Hello,

 

I collect irish model railways for quite some years but due to my "computer dyslexia" and my poor English skills I never went into this forum or it's forerunners. Now my son made up a video of my layout during christmas time. It is a very simple layout as it is stored behind a cupboard and only taken out for a few weeks every year. Well, you might like the video:

I like the different eras featured,well done.

 

One of the attractive features of Irish railways is that there has been so little change to the basic infrastructure over the years that many eras can co-exist on the same layout.

That is a beautiful layout with a great diversity of rolling stock and engines and a very nicely made video:tumbsup:

Wow!!!! Absolutely fantastic. The silver CIE coach in the first scene is something not often seen on layouts, and I love the clerestorey roofed old GSWR coach in green.

Hi Frank & welcome onboard, the layout look's great, & I particularly love the mix with the passanger & freight, well done,and a great video as well,

[Tarabuses]

I like the sound effects and the fact that you have kept the buses in the correct era too.

Hello,

 

thanks for the kind welcome and the positive comments about the video. My layout is back behind the cupboard now and waits for it's return next christmas. So all I can do is waiting for a 071 in IR or IE livery.

 

Were there 071s in supertrain livery with IR logo - I have a photograph of a 141 in that livery with IR logo ?
