I would doubt it Stephen as he has enough on his plate with 071's/201's/and mk2's

Also doing a wickham trolley. Anything similar to that amongst Irish permanent way?

As a full new tooling, will be worth waiting for it to fire your direction for 'treatment' Anthony :)

Yep

 

 

Dublin 1987

 

Pretty straightforward conversion too

[Warbonnet]

Sweet. It's the BR Mark II air cons that will be getting me to part with my cash. About time there was a high quality version of these.

[BosKonay]

Me too. Haven't seen any pics of anything yet

[BosKonay]

Also

 

 

Bachmann Class 150s have been redesigned with an all-new low-profile motorised chassis, enabling an interior to be fitted in both cars for the first time.

 

D&M models retrofit for their excellent 2600?

I have to say that I can't wait to see the MK11's myself Fran. Bachmann seem to be listening to their customers, the Blue Pullman and the MK11's seem to have been at the top of the list of what modellers have wanted to see produced. I look forward to seeing the DBSO.

 

Rich,

The Stanier Moguls are not really suitable for an Irish Conversion as they are much nearer in general design to the Woolwich & GW43XX classes.

The first (LMS) Stanier mogul was turned out with a GW-style safety valve bonnet, the story goes, to see if Stanier had a sense of humour.

 

The offending piece of hardware was ordered to be removed pretty quickly!

[BosKonay]

Thanks for the heads up lads

 

DCC coaches look interesting as a standard option going forward too! The wickham trolley will make an unusual little vehicle

The Midland 1F has a passing resemblance to a GSWR J11, apart from the cab and belpaire boiler.

Personally I think the Bachmann J72 if its still available would be a better option and cheaper than the 1F.

 

The 1F is a lot bigger but years ago someone modified a Triang Jinty into a J11 there are photos of the loco in a railway Modeller Article ffrom the early 70s on building a (West Cork style) corrugated iron goods shed.

I am kept on a short leash these days Kawkawka is a long way 4-5 hours drive North. The railway has a Peckett steam loco Gabriel named after on of the Schull & Skibereen locos and runs down the main street of the town http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsSGBdsp3Kk.

 

The J72 is quite a usefull small loco several were kitbashed into the MGWR E class or J26, the new Bachmann 1F is pretty close in outline to the large Midland tanks used for shunting and banking duties at the North Wall some even had belpair fireboxes
