My next, but what is it?

High sided beet wagon?

To slightly misquote Crosby Stills and Nash -

 

"It's getting to the point, where YOU are no fun any more….."

 

I knew I should not have shown any of the corrugations!

 

Next question - what song am I quoting?

 

When they sang it (their first ever performance in public) at Woodstock, it brought the house down (in a manner of speaking, as they were singing in a field, of course!).

I suppose I'd better let you see what the whole wagon looks like?

The chassis has been specially made to reflect its parentage - an earlier CIE container chassis.

which, as every schoolboy (girl) knows had a different brake arrangement on each side -

as you can see in this piccie of Big and Little Brother.

 

We hope that you like it!

Looks absolutely stunning Leslie, a great addition to the Irish railway scene.

Any ballpark release date, maybe this weekend?. :)

 

Order this weekend from me and you'll have them before Christmas.

 

No money need change hands - just tell me how many.

 

For such orders, I will fulfil them at not more than €28 a kit - a bit less for multiples, if I can save on postage.

Wowzers, that's cool. Walther's used to do some but not as nice as these.

 

The beet kits really look the deal Leslie, I'll be taking 12 thanking you very much.

Thanks for the order - you're first in the queue!

 

If you're at Raheny, you can judge between Lentils and Pearl Barley for loads! I raided the kitchen on the suggestion of Lord White of Old Blarney.

I looked into the Juweela beets but the suppliers online were charging an arm and leg for shipping. I settled for sesame seed which cost $2.75 for a pint carton. They could probably use some earth colored weathering though!

Moulderman, recently of this parish, is the culprit

Barley and suchlike are too symetrical, whereas the beet has a top and tail

Early doors yet but watch this space ( or his space)

Working on some different loads forIrish outline wagons as well as some Irish buildings

I will speak to you 2 comedians at the show :shooting:

But will we get the stray sugar beets as well? Please? :)

Takes you to spot the ones they missed in the wagon!

 

Interesting idea. I could do a vote on which kitchen cereal is nearest and put a handful in every kit?
