perhaps a first step could be to convince IR for use of the station building

it would be the absolute perfect location. i belive a joint venture with other local groups probably the best way faward. to make it viable there would need to be some sort of draw other than just railway heritige. a great example of this is the belturbet heritige railway where music events and the local mens shed are also run

im hoping to put together a small video about the 071/111 class to celebrate its 50th birthday in july. if anyone has any photos or videos particularly older fotage that they would be happy to let me use that would be great. i would of corse make shure to acknolage the source. also if anyone has any interesting stories or experances of them that would be great thanks

Have 1 ticket. Unfortunately something unexpected came up and I can't go. First come first served.

sean cane on facebook might know

at least they still have life

would love a 400 class

probliom solved. cleaned pickups and greased as advised. running perfectly now

here is a film made by BNM from the late 50s early 60s that might be of interest. there is a good chance that the last BNM train has not yet run. many of the currently still in situ railway lines are to be turned into greenways and it is from what i know lighty that they will use the railway in the construction of the greenway. unfortunatly the line will be lifted in the prosess also you could visit the stradbally woodland railway and the cavan and letrim railway and ask about it. alot of the people there have an intrest in BNM stuff. also Sean Cane and ted mc avoy on facebook are also very knolageable in BNM

my bad. i should have looked at the article closer.

very interesting. i am doughting its existance though as i have scowerd old maps which ushualy show old tram lines and i cannot find it

the sligo line still had some untill recently though i think most are gone now. if i see any i will let you know. whelst its not a sign i remember seeing an old super train sticker in the window of portlaois station i wonder would IR be willing to give us some of the old signs

there is this playlist on youtube aswell which has all of them

thats fantastic

the one in rathcoole often has more second hand locomotives than new ones

i love watching his channel aswell. cant wait to see the railway extention opperational

fantastic to see

i find the idea of the 071s running with a hydrogen tender very funny

I'm bighting the bullet. I'm answering my destiny. I'm going to buy a locomotive. just trying to figure out where to put it. any ideas

what sort of grease should i use in one of them

hears some imfo from steverabone.com

This video has some fotage of the harbour railway

id love to see some trains in the snow but there is no snow in Dublin and was wondering if there is any in other parts of the country still

i have the same issue with mine
