  8. Eoin The loco is a Jouef HDI model Made in Shannon in the late 70's early 80's They did 3 "Irish" locos and also some coaches There were three ranges of loco produced - one type used a simplified chassis from BB 17000/25521, with single-axle drive, usually powered by a Mabuchi (Hong Kong) can -type motor, though the design of motor bogie also allowed fitting of the open-frame Jouef 3-pole motor. The bodies of these models were all unique to the HDI range and in most cases some trouble was taken to evoke the characteristics of the real locomotives. The alternative range used bogies from the DB electric locomotives 110/139/182 listed in the 1978/79 main Jouef catalogue, but again with the Mabuchi motor and single-axle drive and the bogie adapted to take the Jouef 3-pole motor. The same body (a reasonable representation of a V200) is common to all. We assume that the SNCB, NSB and DSB versions were thought to look like Nohabs. Also produced but not catalogued was a version of 8501, the SNCF Y51100 locotracteur, moulded in black with a white CIE logo embossed on the cab sides.

  14. 71. Mr. Lawlor asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht Michael D. Higgins the plans, if any, he has to address the concerns of residents in the Clonsilla area of Dublin 15 regarding the preservation of the old signal box at Clonsilla Station as part of our transport heritage; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that this signal box may be the last of its kind in the Dublin area and that there is concern that it may be demolished as the line becomes automated; and if he will discuss the heritage aspects of this matter with the relevant bodies to ensure the preservation of the old signal box at Clonsilla, either in situ, or at an adjacent site. [13748/96] Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht (Mr. M. Higgins): This matter has not previously been brought to my attention. However, as the signal box is the property of a public authority, I will request the advice of the Heritage Council as to whether it should be designated as a heritage building under section 10 of the Heritage Act, 1995.

  22. Ballybrack, called after Granny Brack Bush , Co Louth on the old Dundalk Greenore line Clonsilla, after "Our Cilla" Connolly, after Mrs Connolly who gave out the jam sandwiches in St John Bosco's in the 60's PADDY MURPHY A basket contains 5 apples, of which 1 is spoiled and the rest are good. If The Minister for Hardship is to select 2 apples from the basket simultaneously and at random, what is the possibility that the 2 apples selected will include the spoiled apple? That kind of thing? They all did, "The 9.15 to Sligo" "The 10.12 to Howth" etc No
