    the bandon tanks and no.90s will now be made mark dunlea….with a third steam loco currently in the planning stage…a GSWR F6 to fit on LNYR 2-4-2 chassis

    I know where they can get dimensions…. https://preserved.railcar.co.uk/RB002.html?fbclid=IwAR3y2AeXx-8gZwqFaEqxfo5syJrCmOCyzAkrPr_E7ov-Iy1I2ldsGLA75Ns_aem_AS8Dz_oDDEOgwQX5krh59ix8KC2Icx83SDv01y3YaLHO_gvq1CJN0hP-jv-EcO5qUXU

    An Irish locomotive leaving a meuseum going to wales….I bet you won’t see half the wibble when the reverse happened !!!

    Ah I wouldn’t stress…one will come at one stage or another, as the A class did eventually… And now with suitible rolling stock ready for it (NIR mark 2s, bullied triangulated chassis wagons, Park Royal’s, 6 wheel coaches and so on) compared to when the B121 and A class locos were launched when every early 60s bit of rolling stock had to be kitbuilt, scratchbuilt, converted or those Bachmann coaches from years ago!

    I wonder did anyone end up biting on RB3…

    In the 1950s they may have been new but already put to use on the beet trains among other mixed trains. Mixed in with the wooden GSR open wagons of course

    I haven’t gotten info direct from murphy before but I don’t think any initial time given to the release date to a mode have been forfilled. even MM can’t prevent delays!

    The extended Cut version featuring tractor shunting!

    Its fair to say, based on what has been going on in the past number of years not to just assume that 071s are coming in 2024....it would be more likely that they will come much later. not being pessimistic but remember the 141s which are only due now were supposed to have been release as early as 2021(?)

    The 1961 report has this photo of bonnet first working 121…

    Maybe if there running to youghal we would take them I will be heading down to cork after Day 1. I’m still thinking to do day 2 or not….I’d almost be better of staying in cork and partake in some gricing!

    There is something like this in maam cross. Although I think it’s a 2 axle version instead of a bogey design
  14. Westcorkrailway
    It’s what we get for calling the 29000 rubbish!!!
  15. Westcorkrailway
    Cork based railtours are guaranteed sucess (no bias at all )
  16. Westcorkrailway
    It’s possible…though the black front ends would be a bit of a saftey issue. Perhaps seeing that livery again might only be possible in preservation….however worth pointing out that I’ve heard of something through sources regarding not only Retro 2600…but possibly a 201 as well
  17. Westcorkrailway
    It’s been done….however most people do it as a “what if” rather then a full on model…. take a look at this album on flicker

    There were days where so much beet was coming out of west cork every siding from courtmacsherry to Clonakilty junction. Was packed full of wagons
  19. Westcorkrailway
    They will be €250 I suspect. But at least that is better then current prices Pre-owned

    I think when you click on an image in the thread and press to the left or right of the screen it goes through the photos in that thread…while not fast it does an ok job?
  21. Westcorkrailway
    While they are facilitating the pre orders for this run, it’s been hinted at that they might not have access to the tooling for future runs…and that a certain other company Does
  22. Westcorkrailway
    I didn’t see this email…glad I seen it now
  23. Westcorkrailway
    Superb news
  24. Westcorkrailway
    As of half an hour ago. Hattons website as stopped taking orders and the physical store is now closed. how will the pre orders work for the coaches?
  25. Westcorkrailway
    Keep in mind the curve may now be even tighter or at least modified to accommodate the greenway
