  3. Friday night fun on Tara junction 6101+134 work a Longford-Dublin Connolly push pull service 080 arrives from Galway hauling the Mk2 a/b service 112 passes through Tara junction and promptly fails in the tunnel -fortunately the experienced driver found the fault and restarted the locomotive and continued on to Dublin Connolly. 018 works the empty Sligo-Northwall oil train passing 048 which is working the Northwall-Claremorris laden oil. 017 works the Fridays only 17:00 Heuston -Ballina Mk2D set.

  12. The superb IRM/Heljan oil tanks get their first run behind 192+160 on Tara junction,as @BEANO3005said a little drop of oil on the axle boxes really improves the running of the wagons. B188 works the return goods train from Sligo via the Burma road to Northwall.
  13. Advice taken-and a pack of grain wagons ordered…..
  14. Having being inspired by a recent slideshow presentation by Colm O’Callaghan at the Irish railway record society last week-I recreated a photo of two brand new 201 class locomotives being hauled by a 141 class from Northwall to Inchicore on Tara junction. 143 is seen here hauling 220 and 221 through Tara junction complete with a guards van, The real 220 was introduced to traffic on the 04/03/1995 with 221 on 16/03/1995.

  16. The Northwall-Sligo H van liner has been diverted to operate via Mullingar-Athlone-Claremorris,- Swinford,-Tubbercurry -Colooney (aka the Burma road) as there is a bridge being replaced outside Longford-it is seen here being hauled through Tara junction by locomotive 188. Well done IRM..

  22. Looks like the move over to the Accurascale warehouse is not working out for Republic of Ireland customers at this point in time -speaking with some of my UK friends at Model rail Scotland last Friday -they had received their orders the previous few days.
  23. As usual a great exhibition -I enjoyed my visit.
