Re: Irish Narrow gauge
Ay up!
The Irish NG is the end of NG that has some attraction for me. Poxy little 0-4-0s pulling decrepit 4 wheel coaches up a decrepit line with station names like Pen-y-Bun just leave me cold. Such was NG modelling in my youth. And they never ran!

If I ain't here, I'm in Bilston, scoffing decent chips at last!!!!

Re: Irish Narrow gauge
The reason i posted is a workmate has decided to model one of the prototypes and is lookng for brains to pick. He has bought one of the Worsley aids to scratch building type kits.
Im afraid apart from reading the occasional article in Bylines I know nowt.

Re: Irish Narrow gauge
Colourpoint publish a number of books on this, they have a new one out recently, though can't remember the title...
I think Peco also published a book or two by (I think) David Lloyd? IIRC, he died (early) but did model Irish NG and wrote prolifically about it too.

Re: Irish Narrow gauge
Worsley Works cater for a number of Irish NG lines.
Complete kits for Co. Donegal, Cavan & Leitrim, L&LSR also available from Backwoods Miniatures - they produce to order, so it can take some time before your boxed kit is ready to be sent.
Some Tralee & Dingle kits available from Branchlines.
