    @derek-I recently purchased 174, it’s a normal noise for new locomotives - run in the loco-30 mins in either direction and then remove the bogies and check the amount of lubrication on the gears underneath-I had to put a drop of grease on them,the loco has considerably quietened down since.
  9. And another over bridge at the Ballymote end…..near the “upside down plate”…!!
  10. PECO bullhead points and track would look well Denis.
  11. Sean Brown at Hell’s Kitchen in Castlerea has information and photos too Denis.

  13. Prototype and production HST power cars at the MPD on Ashburton grove.
  14. The connecting gangway door is indeed a shade of yellow instead of the dayglo red on the 1994 original version-this is due to current H&S requirements, where the dayglo is not allowed on the railcar connecting gangway door.
  15. It was the junction of the line to Ballaghderren -drive through Gurteen village towards Boyle for about one mile then take a left…see photo.
  16. Kilfree junction pre closure and ithe real location is not too far away from you Denis….
  17. As can be seen above with the real railcar……the miniature 2600 has also received the grey bogies and under frame on Tara junction in a day and night time scene.
  18. Back to the 1990s, fresh from the IE paint shop at Inchicore is 2601+2602 sporting original as delivered Arrow livery. I was fortunate to be invited to the unveiling of the railcars at Inchicore paint shop yesterday…
  19. 190+184 arrive on the loop platform with a Platin-Tullamore two axle bulk cement working.
  20. A class 40 hauled ballast hopper train passes a looped class 58 hauled freight on Ashburton grove.
