Right. This is what I sent them: Hello I am a railway enthusiast and am wondering when the re-opening of the Foyle Valley Railway Musem is, as surley you woudn't let one of the best railway museums in Northern Ireland sit and rot away? I loved that museum as a child! Annother possible thought is the strech of track beside the station. I know for a fact there is at least 1 steam loco and 1 railcar inside there that many people all over Ireland would love to ride. A tourist attraction in the summer perhaps? Look at Fintown. It's in the middle of nowhere and it's doing great! I'd even volenteer in the museum on weekends if thats what it takes! We need to re-open that railway museum! PLEASE! I BEG OF YOU! Yours, (My Name), Railway moddeler and enthusiast

Thats it. I've had enough. I'm off to send a very angry email to Derry City Council. Wish me luck!

Honestly I don’t know. I was just looking for images of the L&LSR trains and this popped up.

Honestly this thread has me in stitches!

Nice. Someone wrote an entire book in emoji. It’s called emoji dick (moby dick). No joke. Google it.

Thisn topic is for alo the moddelers on the RMweb to come together and share wisdom they have learnt, short cuts, alternitive solutions etc. Post your bit of wisdom to help others!

Sorry. Did you say not a lot?!?

Yes, I do. Actually it's not mine, it's my local library's. Guess which library? Guess! Carndonagh Library! Right across the road from the old station! It's on station road! Don't beleive me check google maps! There is still irony...

Possible redemption! Look what google images churned out!

Thanks Kevin. I won’t let anyone “knock it out of me”. Never! I’ll take you up on that offer and look into it!

Can I just say thank you to everyone who gave me help and/or said good stuff. It’s appreciated. I just like model trains. I do my best.

well I can't I cant use a sector plate because there is only 1 lane going in to the fiddle yard. I would be worried about a turntable as it would limit my choice in train length. A traverser is looking attractive but again limits space. HMMMMMMMM...

In my layout I have a fiddleyard (I'll get you all the dimensions soon) and I was wondering what the most space-effective / useful options are for train storage. I've looked into traversers and there is always the multi-point optoin but I wanted to see what advice people here had. Any Ideas?

i've been wanting Derry City Council (DCC) to reopen Foyle Valley Railway station for ages, it would really with my layout research.

I’ll probably get some appropriate tank engines and change the company on the side. Thanks.

Nice. Any ones in particular?

Yeah, thanks. And you’re not into the L&LSR?!?

Is that laser cut ply?

Wow. That old, huh?

You can see by the picture attached that the L&LSR turntables were just about the length of an engine and no more. I can’t find an official length for the table but the men beside it may help. Any ideas?

Sorry, the turntables I’m looking for are about the length of a tank engine. Sorry!

@sir Toppamhat It’s really up to you. Same brand and wait a few days or new brand sooner.

Well the way I see it if ye Titan does the same job, cheaper why not? You can even get it sooner. Tell you what. I you get it and you don’t like it return it and get ye Bosch before your holiday.

I looked it up and it could be really good! Thanks!
