Stunning Accurascale Loco's, the blue Deltic a favourite

A re run of the 071's would be excellent

Anyone visit Murphy Models stand?

Looking forward to the Railcars, 4 car set on order lots of detail, close coupling interior lighting, the shunting tractor looks excellent

Good choice different era's and a variety of uses, the beet wagons will be popular Great detail like the interior and floor

Fine setup, Lot of space for train movements

Wrong guess again, the wagons will go down well different era's and uses

They probably meant tomorrow at the show

Is it April 1st or someone put the wrong countdown timer on

Friday long weekend Railway show unfortunately wont make it, and the countdown is on only over 2 hours to go think it's a Steam engine

Under lights the loco depot looks superb, big fan of the 071 in grey

Great display area for a fine collection, thats where all the containers went

Looking good the Orange Intercity coaches

The road and scenery are top class, the weathered loco and Tara's are excellent well done Rob

Progressing well Denis fine viaduct, like the CIE wagons

Last year while visiting Glasgow I went on the West Highland Line from Glasgow Queen street station to Mallaig a day trip about 13 hrs return outbound to Mallaig on a Scotrail 156 enjoying the stunning scenery on route on the 5 hour or so journey while seeing a Colas rail Class 37 and Class 66 waiting at station with the alumina tanks for North Blyth, the highlight of the day was in Mallaig boarding the Jacobite steam train back to Fort William a very enjoyable journey listening to the glorious sound and smell of a Steam engine while passing over the Glenfinnan viaduct of Harry Potter fame the journey was over too soon arriving into Fort William after approx 1.5 hrs. The Calendonian sleeper was in the sidings at Fort William, back on the Scotrail 156 for the onward journey to Glasgow a journey I would very much recommend

Excellent photo, the light is perfect and the crew

Thanks for posting the photos, the C Class is progressing great to see, a great day out

There is a Class 201 on standby duty in Cork

Busy Friday night at the junction, great sound of GM locos

Irish Steam engine Pallet cement wagons MK4 IR coaches and DVT ( I get my coat )

Agree the hydrogen re-engining is not the solution here but is a option for freight services, I don't see all the network been OHLE so battery-electric for those parts of the network. Big market in the USA if the hydrogen re-engining goes well

And some bagged cement wagons Please IRM

Great discussion here, there will be a variety of power sources for transport I don't think electric is the only answer for aircraft sustainable fuels is the only way, battery range is improving for cars and will develop further with solid state batteries due in the next few years. Will be interesting to see how the 071 hydrogen test will develop
