  7. Well done to all concerned, unfortunately due to other commitments I was unable to attend on this occasion, I have always enjoyed the Wexford exhibitions simply for the ease of access and location-but above all the lads and ladies of Wexford always make it a friendly and welcoming event….and judging by the photos and videos they really have excelled yet again, Looking forward to October,

  12. 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
  13. Hello IRM…..is their anyone out there…. @Warbonnet

  19. Former Caledonian Mk3 sleeper coach has now arrived at Maam cross and will be followed by some more former CIE coaches today and tomorrow, The coach will be used for staff accommodation and is the first of its type to be preseeved in the Republic of Ireland.

  20. 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.
  21. Great to finally see the real 737 800 MAX ÉI-HGY earlier at Ireland West airport ready to work the return to London Stanstead.
