22133-It worked the 18:15 Heuston-Westport and will return to Dublin working the 07:15 in the morning.

Delighted to see Connolly station finished Paul-and more so to the large variety of stock that will be passing through, You certainly have a winner there and I would expect a first place prize for your efforts at any exhibition that you attend in the future, I'll look forward now to you building Heuston station in the future-complete with the Luas.

Good afternoon gentlemen, As the real loco 083 has started touring the country with the Sperry train, I decided to ask the loco fleet controller could he allocate an 071 loco to my own Sperry train, I smiled when I seen 083 come off the MPD and set about shunting part of the weedspray train and Sperry wagon together for this years programme.... Here we see 083 haul the Sperry train along the up fast line through Tara Jctn station,it's going to be a busy afternoon for the train as it shares the lines with the various passenger services.

Yes Michael-during early days of operation.....In later years any formation would be put together,the only thing that could be relied upon was that the EGV was either the first or last coach....
-
Thanks lads-very much appreciated.

I attended this exhibition for the first time earlier today, There was a nice crowd there and a nice selection of layouts on display,however I was a little bit disappointed in the lack of any Irish-(North or South) themed modern image layout, Nice to have met baseboard Dave and Murrayec and the lads from Dublin. I picked up a MM 201 for a bargain price which made my day.
-
A useful addition to your wonderful layout Andy, Is the Bus garage from the Metcalfe range or did you scratch build it?
-
I always look forward to your updates Kieran-

When I saw 087 in Inchicore about two years ago-I thought to myself that was the end of it, It was only a shell, no engine, cooling fans,radiators all were missing, It was great to see it brought back to life again.

Thanks lads-so far so good, In this scene we see NIR 8113 stabled at the loop platform with the RPSI Mk2 set which has arrived from Whitehead, 0117080 is working on the bi-directional line with the HOBS train.

Refurbished loco 0117080 nearly ready for the road.

Late night Possession on Tara Jctn sees 017080 depart from the ballast loading siding with the HOBS train, 086 has charge of the super train liveried Mk3s which include an extra Mk3 EGV which is en route to Westport to replace a failed EGV.

Good morning gentlemen, After successful trials I have been able to operate four trains at the one time around the layout including shunting in the yard, Here is a photo of 086 arriving with the Supertrain Mk3 set at platform 4 with loco 087 passing though light engine heading for the MPD, Platforms 2 and 3 are occupied with 234 pushing the Mk4 set and 8208 working the De-Dietrich Enterprise set. Loco 201 and 0117071 are stabled on the turntable road.
