punishments. first of all give them some flavour of what a days work is like. since they like work they can knock down a chimney brick by brick like Fred Dibnah used to do. once that has been completed find an empty room in IRM towers and leave them in there until the all Ireland strategic rail review has been carried out in full with peat sods as there only source of food and also make them listen to the best of the tulla ceili band for the whole time. i know the tulla ceili band sounds good to most of us but these young ba*ter*s hate it. once that has been completed they must tamp the ballast on evry railway in Europe by hand. after that burn evrything that ever had any value to them. once that has been completed they must clean every railway platform in Ireland with a toothbrush. during this punishment there only sorce of food will be chewing gum they find on the platform or under seats. after that other punishments such as burning them at the stake and feeding them to pigs can be carried out. of corse the police will probably give them a small fine, a lollypop with "im rehabilitated" on the packet and a wee pat on the head. god help the poor people who worked on that layout. my heart goes out to them

anyone have any sort of ruf timetable for it on sunday

navan. and reopen the line to kingscourt. re open gibstown halt. my grandad has memories of beet trains there.

count me in if it is indeed a BnM preservation society inaugral meeting

UAV flying can be dificult. that day after i filmed those drone shots i was told off for flyaing as aparently it is a no fly zone however i had looked it up and turns out it is not regestered. one of the 2 newer locos may be going to manchester as a lad ted wants to buy it. unfortunatly BNM does not want any history of peat extraction remembered. they have recently removed there history section from there website. BNM are only selling locos for 3000 + at the moment even though for many of the older ones it is way too much. some come up at auction cheeper. as for a railway being preserved in the bog it has been sugested many times however BMN want to simpaly turn the lines into greenways. there is talk of the stone for the greenways being transported by rail. there are also drains evry few days out of edenderry for ash. there are 2 carrages at the now defunct tralee and blenervile railway that could be used on a bog railway though they do need some work done to them. i think there are a few at lullymore as well. cavan and letrim also have a railcar thing for 3 foot as well that does not seem to be in use. wagons are most certainly going to the cutters coarch. hundreds have been scraped in Croghan alone in the last few months

I was there the day before. the train derailed just outside the works so it did not get in until the following morning.

probably when you changed your profile picture. one minioute. super Quin sosages where what people knew. then all of a sudden. who is this lad.

will it be served by rail again

just thinking how are they going to run her when she is ready. will they doubblehead her with a 141. i know im really getting my hopes up here but might she run with the mark 3 control car curently at Moyasta

hello. inchacore paint plant. could do this for the 50th anniversary of the locos

this thread is starting to remind me of the Liffey lesider railtour. between Dublin and Dundalk all I could hear in the compartment by the loco for the whole journey was father ted. if only ms doyle where there to give me a cup of tea afterwords

yesterday was the very last one. it was supposed to stop at the end of 2023 however a small service continued to tun from Belair works. one rake yesterday was the last however. the trackwork was so bad in that area that it derailed at least 5 times yesterday

if you struggle soldering these things can be very useful https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07Q4WZ1J9?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzcharlieb-21&creativeASIN=B07Q4WZ1J9&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.Z92F85JYGVGC&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d_asin&th=1

true capital of ireland just wondering why so many people hate the 29000s

I know that a lot are doubtful that mass scale progress will happen on our railways as has been the case for many the years but with all this climate change stuff i would not be surprised if things such as double tracking sections to Tullamore are on the horizon. one thing that definitely is in the horizon though is someone saying that this wont happen for 100 years
