With the increase in the container business at the Lakeview freight yard, an investment has been made in an additional reach-stacker which arrived at the freight yard earlier, After unloading it was immediately put to work alongside the existing reach stacker.... Thank you to gentleman Ray of Die-cast models 4u shop in Galway for supplying the model-along with many others, Well worth a visit-when lockdown is lifted

  13. Prototypical operation at its finest-always look forward to your updates Gareth-well done.
  14. Hi Robert, I used Revell dark blue number 51 on my 29000 railcar-the tin of green paint came from Jim Poots and was used for the light green on his Dublin bus double deck kits and doesn’t have any number. See the photo for comparison.
  15. Early morning at the Lakeview servicing point we see locomotives 148 and 127 in for fuelling and examination, This deport provides the motive power for the nearby freight yard-so it is kept busy all day....

  23. Very true Jason-you can add the future to the past and present as Ballina has recently undergone substantial investment to the freight yard-both tracks have been relaid and concreted over along with the addition of new tower lighting and an extension for loading containers and timber at the Manulla end of the yard. See photo below.....
  24. Originated in the UK, so no idea who owns it...Built in 1995 according to the plate located on the door. Yes it is.
  25. I have seen them lying around road haulage yards with the BELL logos painted out...but this was a first for an active load carrying BELL bulk to appear.
