    Another productive day at Maam cross, Work began to prepare the Mk3 sleeper coach for its first guests….the staff, The first two photos are the before and after shots My room-and the view can be seen towards the end of the photos The coach is in great condition considering it is 40 years old-built in 1983, it was washed with bogies and one end painted, The slave bogies are from a former 8100 series DART EMU-the LHB plate on the side states built also in 1983

    On the eve on what promises to be a great tour for the RPSI-the first 201 locomotive to work to Sligo in passenger service,we see locomotive 216 work the empty RPSI Cravens set through Tara junction on driver training runs. Let’s hope we pass the Sligo-Northwall 001 hauled BELL liner and the Mullingar-Connolly Cravens passenger hauled by 177+129 Retro 073 passes with the empty timber to Ballina.
