Very nice looking push pull set, really looks the part behind the 121,

Can't wait to see the directional lights fitted, maybe you will post

I am thinking of a sound decoder

Featuring the EGV sound in the driving

trailer.

I may find a different way of

uploading photos,as since I changed

phone a number of months ago,I can't

upload photos.

Very enjoyable video EM. Both of those mk3 sets look really well. Was that the SF RTR pack you bought? As ever videos of that wonderful layout are always a treat. Noel

Yes Noel,I was after the triple SF

pack this ages,and bought this at

the Raheny show last weekend.

I often got the 10.30 ex Connolly

on a Sunday morning in the 90s with

a single 121 struggling with 6 coaches

to Rosslare.

It looks excellent. I can only imagine the sound of a 121 powered mk3 set threading its way through the scenic hills and valleys around Rathdrum and Arklow. 6 coaches must have been near its limit on such a hilly run. How long did it take back then to get to Rosslare?

After many months of trying to post photos,I have

managed to upload a few.

I am currently at my Mk3 PP driving trailer,which

I plan to install a mk3 EGV decoder and directional lighting.

I have made some cab detail and drivers desk,along with some

plasticard sections.

I also have a Bachmann EM80 that is in the process of a conversion to

IR EM50.

[Kirley]

Something I have often thought about Eamonn but never got round to it. Well done, looking forward to seeing the result and also EM 50.

Just have to order some LEDs,Kieran and

do some work on the seating area of the

Driving trailer.As I am going to use 201-

203 as the dedicated loco,I note that the

201s did carry wing mirrors,which come with the parts bag of the MM 201s.

[enniscorthyman]

20 foot Bell on Dapol Prestwin chassis,and improved buffers from Dart castings.

[Sulzer201]

Top work as usual Eamonn and I love that C in the background.

[Kirley]

It's amazing how something like correct size buffers can really make a model, I've been using both Dart Castings or Lanarkshire Models & Supplies http://www.lanarkshiremodels.com/ for some time now. Great job Eamonn!

[enniscorthyman]

Thanks for the comments.

I tryed to post more photos,however

my laptop won't let me for some reason.

Will try again later.

[enniscorthyman]

A few weeks back,I painted the exhaust silver on

220 and 203,and a small bit of weathering.

[JasonB]

Looks good.I must try that.

[enniscorthyman]

Just about finished my new layout

That I hope to bring to Cork this Sunday.

Fabulous. Love the scenery, the figure placement, the emergency services, and the house fire.

[enniscorthyman]

Thanks Noel.

I had to make it so first it would fit in my

car and the attic.I kept it simple,no

Station and just one track at the rear,

mainly for transportation purposes.

[RedRich]

First time on tour Eamonn, best of luck with it.

 

Rich,

[enniscorthyman]

Thanks Rich.

Hi Eamonn,

I just stumbled upon your video on YouTube a few minutes ago, then saw your post. Wow! Rapid progress has been made and a little cracker it is too! Very nice! Good luck in the Rebel County.

Looks great EM and looking forward to seeing it in Cork. Pity about the burning house though - did the emergency services manage to save any of it?

[enniscorthyman]

Looks like some damage to the roof.

The firemen did a great job.

[JasonB]

Lovely job Eamonn.Nice work on the scene with the house fire:tumbsup:

[enniscorthyman]

Thanks Jason.

Hi Eamonn, Great to talk to you in Cork. Fabulous layout and certainly attracted a lot of attention at Fort Camden. Mind you, the kids seemed to be mesmerized by the blue flashing lights!
