CIE locomotive livery variations 1960-1990
Irishswissernie replied to jhb171achill's question in Questions & Answers
I am OK with images off my Flickr site being used on here but will want 'dosh' if used commercially or for profit. -
I don't think that I uploaded this video to flickr along with my other ones several years ago, mind you its quite possible Ihad! Its a 9 minute segment and flickr originally would only take 3 minute clips. North Wall with 088 on a Tara, then 168 182 076 170 in the yards and finishing with 081 on cement at Limerick Junctionand 169 on mixed bubbles and bagged mts from Waterford. 2003-06-A North Wall-Limerick Junc 17jun03.

This photo came to light today , this usually happens when I am looking for something else. A layout which was developed ca 2010 featuring one of my SLNC North Star 0-6-4t's plus one of my sons 3D printed narrow gauge 0-4-0 'wing' tank locos. The SLNC tank is now back in Ireland and has featured on IRM several times over the years. Alan's tank loco has no doubt moved on as well and the layout went the journey pretty quickly as someone wanted her Living room re-modelled with the consequent total anhilation of the railway room.

Although they are AGFA slides rather than Kodachromes they are looking good. I have 63 so far and whilst most are the usual locations there are some different views at Warrenpoint, Finaghy, Lisburn etc and most feature trains rather than just loco portraits. More on the way hopefully together with a copy of the photographers records.

I have also uploaded a couple of Negs showing details of the Lough Swilly 4-8-4 T valve gear and rear bogie, a bit 'niche' but there may be somebody out there desperate for such details In the pipeline I am working through a set of colour slides taken in June 1964 covering the UTA lines at that time; taken by someone on a private trip (not a railtour) so some interesting items so far with more to come. L&LSR 1948-CA Derry, Pennyburn 4-8-4t rear bogie yj012. L&LSR 1950-xxCA 4-8-4t Valve gear. yj009.

Still going strong then Dave! The chap who built them reckoned his wrists were never the same from punching all the rivets out. I have some more photos somewhere.
