  1. [ So what's the green Belmond one? The "Seasick"? The Incredible Hulk livery.....
  2. After arriving in Waterford with the DFDS CPW liner,loco 216 was attached in to the empty timber which was bound for Westport, Here we see 216 diverted via Tara Jctn with the empty timber. 083 passes light engine on the up road and 0117076 idles over on the per-way sidings. 2607+2608 has arrived in the bay platform with a local service.

  17. All hail our glorious leader.... Happy birthday Stephen.
  18. Best of luck with this new project Gerry, Having only visited the real Llangollen railway last weekend for the first time,you certainly captured the place very well in miniature form,so I have no doubt your new layout will be much the same standard. .
  19. Coach is fitted with a Guards emergency brake valve-a compartment at one end of a Cravens coach which could be accessed via a carriage key and contained a brake valve and a vacuum brake dial, A Guard could start train from that coach if it was the rearmost vehicle in the formation,and conduct a brake continuity test, 1558 was one of two coaches fitted with this apparatus and was generally allocated to the Limerick-Linerick Jctn shuttle until replaced by railcars, We then had that coach for a number of years on the Ballina branch train until withdrawal. I remember taking a photo of the compartment I must try and dig it out.
