Grange Castle Posted August 18, 2013 Author Posted August 18, 2013 Johny Your collection is going from strength to strength. Are you doing your own decals? Thanks Kevin Although I had hoped to have been doing my own decals by now it hasnt happened, I'm still relying on others to do them for me, but i have started to do any painting required which so far has been minimal but its a stepping stone. My next plan is to paint up a few oxford white models into an post green and get them decaled so we'll see how that goes. Have to say I love the road vehicle side of the hobby, cant get enough of them. The garda and stobart fleet i have is bordering on a joke but i cant stop. I'm always trying to think of new vehicles to do. From the ones I've done so far, I most like the An Post van and Dublin Fire Brigades which I finished last night. Jonny. Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Heres one for you Jonny http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/L205069-Diesel-Loco-Class-20-001-Eddie-Stobart-Ltd-Very-Rare-/261288797818?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item3cd606a67a Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 I see he has another Stobart bargain! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/R6294-Eddie-Stobart-Conflat-And-Container-No202-Limited-Edition-No-288-Of-500-/261283934340?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item3cd5bc7084 Quote
Grange Castle Posted September 19, 2013 Author Posted September 19, 2013 Cheers Dave, but only modern stobarts for me I think you should start up a stobart corner Dave with these two. As far as I know the container belongs to a stobart steam loco another 500 piece issue. Doesn't seem to be any takers yet... Quote
Grange Castle Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 (edited) New Arrivals Stobart Reach Stacker DFB Ambulance Delta 84, part of a batch of 4 thats arrived, ( D14, D24, & D74 ) still needs a bit of work. Edited November 16, 2013 by Grange Castle Quote
Garfield Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 They look great... who makes the reach stacker? Quote
Grange Castle Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 Thanks. The reach stacker is from the Atlas Editions Stobart collection. Same casting as the oxford release cant remember the livery on that one. Great detail in it including the sliding cab. The recent less co container released has attachment points to put it on the stacker Quote

Hi grange,is this ambulance you are using , a corgi "toy" model Quote
Grange Castle Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 Yeah its from the corgi built to last range, stripped and re-decaled. Its not quite 1/76 but its not far off. Someone in the UK apparently measured it to be 1/77 which to me is the same ! Oxford are releasing a 1/76 model of a modern ambulance in the new year so my ones may only be a stopgap. I just thought the shape and size of these was fairly spot on. Quote

We sure are glued to the couch watching it, both me and my 6 year old son, think santa will have to bring a few stobart goodies for him again this year and me hopefully ! Yeah the model is class i'm impressed with the detail in it. The skeletal and container are now available from the club shop if you are interested. Quote
Brian Collins Enterprises Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 Some nice models on the Stobart Club website indeed Jonny. One that is in the pipeline is a Stobart Rail Rigid Scania, one I would certainly like for the collection. Details on www.eddiestobartmodels.com Quote

Grange Castle Posted July 25, 2020 Author Posted July 25, 2020 Hi Guys, Been away from here for a long time but still at the hobby. Vehicles have been piling up and hopefully I'll really get stuck into the layout soon. For now heres a few Garda cars at the end of a pursuit of a Golf into the local flats complex 4 Quote
