Love your Cattle Special

KIRLEY JUNCTION - H & W Diesel #28 A model of Harland & Wolff’s large diesel locomotive made by Gareth Brennan. It started life with the BCDR but then went to the UTA. It was still used as a shunter over more modern locomotives. Unable to identify the taker of the photograph

I bought the QGT as a scratch built brass body (maker unknown) and added a Jinty chassis. Thanks for the technical point, every day is a leaning day.

GNRI Goods GNRI QGT #99 with wagons from Provincial, Gareth Brennan & Jeremy Suter.

Provincial Wagons - GNRI Open Wagons Completed some kits got at the Bangor Show, 6 and 4 plank GNRI open wagons.

CIE Covered Wagon 15147-16812 Series A JMD kit I picked up from Leslie McAllister at the Bangor Show, not really a kit, very simple to put together.

KIRLEY JUNCTION - Shunting at Belfast MV Class #109 on shunting duties.

IRM Mk2's - NIR BSGV Fantastic detail you can only really see after you remove the coach body.

KIRLEY JUNCTION – NIR 62’ Rail bogie Wagons. I saw Anthony Smith’s conversion years ago and got some white-metal wagon cranes to do the same. I got some bogies from IRM last Oct and talked Gareth Brennan into doing the job. He scratch-build the wagons and did a beautiful job except they were too clean. All I did was a bit of weathering and added some rails.
