Railer Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Oh no:puke: the Irish Rail logo and the UIC numbers. Good god, it's going to be a challenge to ID an 071 at a distance now.

Garfield Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Apart from the godawful UIC numbers, I think it looks good. Good to see they had the sense not to stick on a full-colour logo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, once it has the grab irons on and it's a sunny day with suitable weathering I think it'll look good. I'm just glad they're still getting overhauls.

gm171 kk Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 The yellow panel and numbers! However like Warbonnet said, all it needs is a layer of dirt on it like the old freight livery did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railer Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 The yellow panel and numbers! The yellow panel, I like because it's in the style of 112 and not like the big type on 113. I prefare the yellow strip than the yellow face on the 071s. I can't see the side UICs lasting with weathering, look how they have to keep the side numbers clear now and they are much larger font. I think they will still get their old style numbers added to the sides at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will still get their old style numbers added to the sides at least. If the yellow panel was slightly lighter yellow and rounded like the NIR locos it would look okay. I think you may be right about the numbers, lets hope so anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Anyone care to explain what the format or make up of all the numbers mean. I get the 071 bit but what's all the rest a break down would be nice. I assume 201's etc etc will be getting them also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the 071 bit but what's all the rest a break down would be nice. I assume 201's etc etc will be getting them also. From Wiki First and second position: Interoperability code (on multiple units Type code) Third and fourth position: Owner's code (since 2006: UIC country code) Fifth to eight position: Type number Ninth to eleventh position: Serial number Twelfth position: Self-check digit Ireland's UIC country code is 60 so 60 will be part of every rolling stock UIC number here. The 92 part ID's it as a Diesel loco so the 201s UIC number will start with 92 60 like the 071s Edited March 25, 2013 by Railer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave182 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 First impressions, looks like something from the Soviet Union that Bond will distroy at some stage! Wouldn't be surprised if the green and orange are still to be applied over the white. Not the worst livery I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wexfordloco10 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I know they painted steam locos in Britain during World War 2 a dull black colour for obvious reasons but have we sunk to that Bring back the Black and Silver David Wexford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
