    The CIE Slainte express was one of the first trains sets-still have the Hymek and coaches-followed by the Hornby R686 intercity class 37 set-then in 1981 was the HST train pack and in 1986 came the Lima HST

    Gearing up for the busy Christmas season we see preparations being made to increase train sizes….the first set to be increased was the Cravens-9 Cravens and 2 BR GSVs, Locomotives 124+134 assist with the shunting as 018 has a single GSV 3189 to add to the rake of Cravens Also a number of mail trains are scheduled to operate-the first of these is seen here arriving at platform one behind locomotives 160+192 in what is a mixed livery formation from the late 1980s era. The local P&T van awaiting the mail bags.

    I enjoyed my visit to the exhibition yesterday-a nice set up,easy parking and all within a short walking distance from the centre of the town It was great to meet up with Mr & Mrs Gerry Byrne and Barry Moule from the Wexford MRC,really liked Barry’s O gauge BR diesel depot, Another bargain from @WRENNEIRE-running in trials and photos in due course over on Tara junction. A visit afterwards to Modellers Den shop on Darling street for a few bits and pieces and home…. Well done to the organisers.

    I entered the venue at 10:00 on Saturday morning-after purchasing a ticket and programme with ease from the ticket office, no queueing whatsoever, It got busy around the 12:30 mark until 15:30-I left at 16:30 after an enjoyable day meeting good friends, and viewing the various layouts- I will return
