WRENNEIRE Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I did that but only 1 album is showing and its not the one I want Anyway I can just dump them all in the one place and select what I want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broithe Posted May 11, 2017 Author Share Posted May 11, 2017 Have you made more than one album? Click All images, then New album from the drop list to do so. Then add images to that album. It's only an issue if you want to find them again. There used to be a 250 limit for free use, but it seems to be infinite now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aclass007 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Did anyone here buy the C class builders plate? I put an absentee bid on it, but fell short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRENNEIRE Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) It made €320 (€384 after commission) It wasn't a brass one though, B, not to worried about Imgur, just dumping everything in the same album I did what you said previously but adding pics to the new album was impossible for me so I will leave things as they are.

Garfield Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Just saw some photos of the auction on Facebook and noticed a station sign for Float in the background. Would've taken a punt on that if I'd noticed it in time! Any idea what it went for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRENNEIRE Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Pat, it went for €440 ( €528 after commission/VAT) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minister_for_hardship Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Its still showing in my browserI will try again New pic host so I am not up to speed yet Isn't 184 carrying plates up in Whitehead? Assume there were recast and not the 1880 originals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flange lubricator Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Isn't 184 carrying plates up in Whitehead?Assume there were recast and not the 1880 originals? I think 184 and 186 are like Triggar's sweeping brush at this stage with many original parts being replaced over time I know that 184's boiler dates from 1944 for example .

RobertRoche Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I picked up this sign today. On the rear in ballpoint it says 'WORKS FOREMAN WELLINGTON BRIDGE' a pretty local station which I may try to replicate in the future. I also share last names with the guy on the sign.

leslie10646 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 I have to agree with the guy who commented that putting so much stuff up at once would keep the prices down - just £3,000 for a S Class nameplate? Interesting to see the variation in price - but if you lived virtually anywhere in Ireland you could pick up something with your local station name on it - obviously, in some cases there were two folk chasing (very hard) for the same thing. Dave, I'm glad Malahide ended up with a "Local Boy" - all right and proper. 184's numberplate is the original -I understand that the ones on the engine are copies. Old John's estate has certainly had a boost! Leslie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunluce Castle Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 I was very surprised to see that each of the 3 NCC number plates went for 500 or less each. There was one for sale last month on the mainland and it went for £750. Number plate 100 I thought should have sold for a lot more, anyway if I wasn't a student and not saving up for uni, then I would have definitely bid, ah well plenty more time left.

Yes it was! it was €520.......probably undervalue though given its rarity! Funnily a second Kerry (staff) Glenbeigh to Killorglin sold for €500. Also accidentally got the CBPR axle box!

jhb171achill Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Excellent buy, excellent cleaning job. It's better to clean up, as obviously a repaint - even if absolutely correctly done - decreases value. I notice that not only this, but other wagon / coach / tender numberplates too, were described inaccurately by the auctioneers as being off locomotives! Surely they must realise that the DSER never had 913 engines in their sheds.....! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRENNEIRE Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Theres VAT involved in the cost but I imagine he gets around 17% of the hammer He also collects the same fee from the seller!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed.....and as I often tell tourists, when explaining the implications of actually seeing, rather than just hearing, the banshee, "most Irishmen meet her in person when we get home from the pub on a Saturday night"......
