Ray, Garry, the metal wheels on the Tri-ang Hornby/Wrenn tender are 15mm diameter or as near as can be. K9-70

According to Pat Hammonds book, the R0 box lid dates from around the start of 1955. Black and green Princess locomotives, and both tanks, the 0-6-2T clockwork and a pre-production model of the Jinty locomotive. Three types of coaches to be seen in the photo along with various types of wagons which includes the first two tank wagons which arrived near the end of 1954.

Mecanno Magazine Feb 1952 page 85 has the following information for running a second engine on three rail track. http://pdfmm.free.fr//5202.pdf

The wheels and rods on my two Budgie's, weren't painted red, Stephen.

Yes, the GNRI (Great Northern Railway of Ireland) had four. Railcar's D, E, F&G. The C.I.E. (Coras Impoair Eireann) was operating railcar's in the 1950's, but nothing like the photo's posted. I was also thinking O.V.S. Bulleid and C.I.E., after all, he came up with some strange Ideas when he was C.M.E. for C.I.E. K9-70 Unidentified 2600 series railcar at Westland Row 25-09-1954

I spoke with the owner of the articulated railcar coaches, and he informed me that before he bought it, it was up for auction. It didn't sell. The auctioneer thought it might be an engineering model, possibly made for or by O.V.S Bulleid. My friend has documentation from the auctioneer's to support this. The green paint is original. The power unit frames appear to be from a steam locomotive tender. The steps are constructed in brass. The set up could be 2-A-1-A-2. But not possible to add the centre wheel set due to the motor mounted inside the frame. From what I can make out, the complete model is constructed in brass. That is a horn above the driving cab, not a roof top lamp, as been suggested. At the moment, I can't post a photo of the full train, as the power unit is with a friend being overhauled due to being a none runner. Thanks everyone for the help so far. K9-70 Pictures attached show the driving cab and motor bogie.

Can anyone identify the manufacturer of these railway model's, believe to have been constructed in 1954. Articulated driving trailer x2 connect to either side of the diesel motor unit, forming a self contained DMU. The diesel motor unit is fitted with a Keyser 3 pole motor driving both axle's, set up to work on 3 rail track. The Dining/buffet coach, (if that what it is) appears to have a driving cab at each end, but the driver's windows are painted out. All coaches have rectangular buffer's. K9-70

According to the June 1992 issue of the Journal of the Irish Railway Record Society magazine, the first 3 car set to be refurbished was 93, the trailer cars are not listed. Another snippet of information; railcar 69 was fitted with a reconditioned Hampshire power unit purchased from British Rail. K9-70

There's no smoke without fire. RPSI/UTA 4 drops the fire at Drogheda and the station staff hose down the hot coals to prevent the wooden sleepers from catching fire. Ready to depart for Dublin

It's a pity that one or two of the Cravens Ballast Wagons weren't preserved as the remaining ones weren't cut up until 1994 by Hamills of Ballymeana. Photo attached made 11-1993, shows 103 plus 4 of the Cravens ballast wagons stored at Ballymeana. K9-70
