BosKonay Posted April 20, 2012 Author Posted April 20, 2012 Ah the bridge, that beautiful bridge - he'll never truly be forgiven for that http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/member.php/52-A4mallard
Weshty Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 Evening all, great to see nearly all the gang are here. But why did you have to traumatise me by mentioning the demise of Mallard's lovely bridge ;-)

BabyGM Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Lads can anyone tell me what is the difference between an ordinary member and a junior member?
Warbonnet Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Lads can anyone tell me what is the difference between an ordinary member and a junior member? Once you pass a certain amount of posts (five I think) you go from junior member to member.
Warbonnet Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 No problem, hope you get your workbench thread going, your skills are getting better and better, great to see a youngfella like yourself interested in the hobby!

Thanks I cant give myself all the credit because I get help with a fair bit of the stuff I do I'm currently in the process of deciding whether or not to build a bigger layout as the one I have at the moment is too small and I'm quickly running out of space to put stock and when everything is on the line at the same time shunting is a nightmare

If you have the extra space, go for it!
BosKonay Posted April 21, 2012 Author Posted April 21, 2012 'Bigger Layout' I'm afraid is a disease that never leaves! I'm building a layout that has just under 600 feet of track, and I'm already feeling it's a 'wee bit small'
RedRich Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 600 feet you're making me jealous Stephen. I haven't even got my man shed built yet. Luckily the inlaws are builders. Rich,
RedRich Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Nothing wrong with getting a bit of help, sure I get it all the time, especially when it comes to painting! If you have the extra space, go for it! I will be getting some help with the scenic side of the layout myself as I feel that is the one area where things get the better of me. I don't mind the ballasting and road surfaces. It's twisting florists wire to make trees that does my head in. Rich,
djkonore Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Is djkonore hanging onto the side of the lifeboat? I threw him a lifeline yesterday, maybe he's being 'processed'..? Thanks for the updates on the processing wait lads, my abandonment issues were creeping in Then when I did get cleared, the mot insisted on some "quality time" ..... so I obliged Anyway great to be here at last!

Let her see the pre-production pictures of the 071 - that's quality time..
Irish Freight Models Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) Hi All Irish Freight Models checking in here !. Thanks to Boskonay for the invite. Best of luck to the new forum. A little intro, i formerly posted as Dieselman on the older forums and many will know me better as that and also my "Annestown" layout, which i hope has provided inspiration for other modellers to enter the hobby. Although not a professional modelmaker, I produce many items of Irish freight rolling stock as well as resprays etc, and have done work for many of the members on here ! The super moderator (gotta love that title) has kindly provided a thread for me in the shops/producers section, so i can post there, photos etc.. My youtube channel can be found here,hopefully this works, http://www.youtube.com/user/tbmsp?feature=mhee just click on "videos" regards Tom Edited April 22, 2012 by Irish Freight Models
