UP6936 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Hi there, I will be taking a 3 day trip to malahide with my family in a couple of weeks, and I wondered if any of you guys knew if the Fry model railway is still open at the castle? Thanks, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, James Hi James, Unfortunately it is no longer at Malahide Castle. It's currently dismantled and in storage, along with all the rolling stock.

UP6936 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Awh. I hope they find somewhere to display it soon. Is there anything else in the way of model shops/ railway stuff worth having a look at in malahide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirflick Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 You could always visit the railway station-a beautiful building....and you might get lucky and catch a Tara mine train thundering past! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weshty Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 You could always visit the railway station-a beautiful building....and you might get lucky and catch a Tara mine train thundering past! Malahide is well worth seeing as it is a classic working example of the glazed polychromatic brickwork used on this stretch of the old GNR(I). Other examples include Dundalk, Navan and Ardee. Our own Glenderg has also made some beautiful models of this design.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UP6936 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Thanks for the suggestions guys. I am going to take a look at the station in hope of seeing an 071 in the new livery, as I have only seen orange or black and silver ones before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
