Kirley Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 AEC Railcars. I had completed a Worsley Works Kit for the GNR Railcar and added an SSM K15 coach to make up a 3 Car Set a month ago but whenever I set the coach on the rails it shorted. I tried everything I could but it was not until Colm Flanagan suggested changing the wheel sets did I resolve the problem. Now all is running well round Kirley Junction. There is a second AEC Railcar in this video in UTA livery supplied by Silver Fox.
Old Blarney Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Kirley, Congratulations on your wonderful Model Railway. May I ask where you sourced the seats for your Railcar Sets from? I too have the Worsley Kits for the railcars and intermediate coach. These are being built for me - I'm afraid I do not have the necessary skills to build them to the required high standard that they deserve. Would it also be possible for you to post some close-up photographs of the front of the railcars please. This is to help us with the curvature on these sets at the sides and the fronts. Happy modelling, Thank you, Old Blarney.
Weshty Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 David, You coudl try Southern Pride, they do a huge range of seats and tables for a brace of different coaches.
enniscorthyman Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I always enjoy some action from Kirley Junction.
BosKonay Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 What beauties! The layout just keeps getting better better - lovely work!
Kirley Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Kirley, Congratulations on your wonderful Model Railway. May I ask where you sourced the seats for your Railcar Sets from? Would it also be possible for you to post some close-up photographs of the front of the railcars please. Old Blarney. I would go with Des's suggestion, I used some from the Wizard 5L range as they are easy to cut up. http://www.wizardmodels.co.uk/FrameSetShop.php?DM=wizabout I'll PM you re photographs

Hunslet 102 Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Really love that railcar in the GNR livery,top class
ttc0169 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 I always look forward to your updates Kieran-
The Derry Road Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Superb as always Kieran, love the mk2's TDR
Noel Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 I love watching videos on your fabulous layout. The lush green scenery and atmospheric buildings are fabulous. That station building complex near the end is just superb.
Kirley Posted September 27, 2015 Author Posted September 27, 2015 UTA U2 on Goods Duties. You can also see another U2 Locomotive, a Jinty and 2 AEC Railcars.
Mayner Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Love the U2 on the goods the U2s straight out of Mac Arnold's NCC saga with 4-4-0s working goods trains on the Cookstown & Derry Central lines and ex NCC branches.
The Derry Road Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Great film Kieran, the U2 looks fab and the rail cars are a great display of your craftsmanship. TDR
Kirley Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 Bullied Open Wagons Today saw the first run out of these wagons on Kirley Junction. In the build I used Weshty's tip about using scrap brass instead of the paper staples supplied in the kit for the brake gear protectors. I used Locomotive K1a No.388 to provide the power. As you can see in the video below the wagons look too clean at least for my liking so some weathering is planned.
The Derry Road Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Nice work Kieran, and great video footage. No doubt the weathering stick will be waved soon on the wagons. TDR
The Derry Road Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Nice one Kieran, are the decals MIR or did you source them elsewhere?
Hunslet 102 Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 Nice one Kieran,looks good with a nice crisp paint finish and clear decals,well done
Kirley Posted October 15, 2015 Author Posted October 15, 2015 are the decals MIR or did you source them elsewhere? They are from MIR Raymond, I've been holding them waiting for Oxford to bring out the Ford Van.
Kirley Posted October 18, 2015 Author Posted October 18, 2015 My first GNR(I) locomotive on Kirley Junction, converted from a Hornby Schools Class. Will try and get a video up next week.
