A May 2009 view of loco 162 about to be turned on the table.

Over the last few months the turntable at Claremorris station has been refurbished by the local permanent way staff, The work involved power washing the well area and improving drainage around the area and replacing some broken crossbeam timbers on the table, The siding which gives access to the turntable has been renewed with 2nd hand concrete sleepers and a second hand buffer stop originally from Ballina being used at the Manulla end of the table. It's a credit to the staff involved in the project to see such a fine job on such an historical piece of infrastructure.

Thanks Stephen... To celebrate 40 years of the 071 class locomotives in Ireland the general manager of the MPD arranged a line up of some of the 071 class liveries down through the years' date='including a visit from NIR 112, Sadly 080 in IR livery was unable to make it as it had failed before departure from the Western road MPD.

Thanks lads.

Thank you gentlemen, Another view of the HST at speed on the up fast line passing an empty MPD and goods yard, The plan is to have an 08 shunting the yard while some passenger and freight will be passing on the main lines with some loco movements taking place in the MPD.

This is one of the finest recreations of a GSV that I have ever seen,well done Daryl,it sure is a fantastic model both in the detail and correct colour shade.

Love the van Eamonn.

Thanks lads for your comments-it's much appreciated, At the moment I'm familiarising myself with the layout,which I'm enjoying, My first purchase was the iconic blue/grey HST, Here is a staged shot of it passing the freight depot and down loop-a five piece formation as I'm waiting for a TGS and buffet car to complete the rake.

Good evening lads, With thanks to Wayne and the guys at Wexford MRC,I was able to purchase the Ashburton Grove N gauge layout, I was impressed with its operation at the recent exhibition and as the layout had been for sale I decided to buy it, This is my first venture into the N Gauge market but I have driver301 to thank for his inspirational N Gauge layouts namely Wellington bheag,Carlow and currently Connolly Stn, I intend this layout to be in the BR blue era-1970s-late 1980s-my first purchase being a blue/grey HST.

Thanks Andy and Raymond, Here is a night time view with only the tower lights-fantastic light.

Finally getting some work done on the MPD, With thanks to baseboard Dave for supplying the tower lights-they are superb, The concrete effect is made from card and suitably weathered with weathering powders, 215,216,222 and 230 are seen here testing the new sidings.

Looking great Raymond.
