He has a nice voice for narration, and his videos are aimed at teens and pre-teens who are saving their pocket money each week for a new Hornby loco every few months...

What we need is a Niall Toibin type doing model Irish loco reviews, going off on occasional tangents telling stories with an aul joke at the end...what was that one about Carrauntoohil and the American.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warbonnet Posted May 12, 2021 Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 Hi everyone, Just a further update; A39r and 054 are now at less than 10% remaining.

Warbonnet Posted May 31, 2021 Author Share Posted May 31, 2021 Happy Monday everyone! More A Class progress. As you can see the main body printing is now complete. Detail part painting is now underway and then it's the final assembly of body to chassis, then testing and packing in the coming weeks! We had to a large amount of work correcting the initial artwork on these when we first got decorated samples, but the hard work paid off. Order yours right here: https://irishrailwaymodels.com/collections/a-class-locomotive Cheers! Fran 14 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
