Kirley Junction -Zinc Ore Wagons

 

Empty Zinc Ore wagons heading back from Foynes to Silvermines. The earlier wagons had a rack on top to support a tarpaulin which was stored at the end of the wagons when not in use.  It must have been too cumbersome because it was later dispensed with.

GNR(I) Bogie Vans. 

A while back I got an Alphagraphix kit of GNR(I) Guinness bogie van. My friend Gareth Brennan wanted to try a build in plasticard so he made a Guinness Van, a Grain Van and a chassis and roof with the body to be covered by the Alphagraphix kit.

I did a short video highlighting these GNR(I) 28' bogie vans on Kirley Junction.

Gareth built the whole thing including the bogies.  Lettering from Foxes.

Just spotted today RPSI Whitehead are restoring one of these vans.

Does anyone know what the hole in the side is for?

KIRLEY JUNCTION –AISHA LINER

My attempt to recreate the arrival of the Aisha liner at the Goods Yard at Ballina, so ‘modellers licence’ is requested. The video is 5 minutes long but I hope it’s worth sticking with. I scratch built the Acrylonitrile Tankers earlier this year.

I don't think it's meant to be there, probably work in progress.
