  1. The last picture is an instantor coupling and some of the others are too head on to tell
  2. Great news Enda here is a nice picture from the O’Dea collection of some new “out of the box “ 30ton Vans at inchicore note the massive J hangers on them . https://catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtl
  3. The fitted vans had a plate or spacer fitted between the buffers and body to slightly extend them this was possibly done because they had instantor couplings fitted to reduce the distance between the wagons to avoid them banging against each other especially when running with passenger trains .
  4. The first ones to be withdrawn in 1968 were replaced by three ex GSR coaches becoming 2979,2980 and 2981 I suspect the interiors re used in the bogie vans the withdrawn ones were then used as vans for a while . Here's one as a van signs removed and letter box covered over .

  5. We are very lucky to have an abundance of riches at the moment I was lucky to pick up a few of the JM Designs covered vans and 20T Guards Vans and would buy another one or two brakes if they become available again . With the addition of the fitted and unfitted standard H Van I would imagine both the 20T & 30T CIE brake vans would see an upsurge in demand if made available again .

  11. Sorry to hear this John , look after yourself and none of us are invincible and sometimes things like this happen to help remind us .
  12. Its certainly the best picture showing the close up of 001s number I think the only A class to have highlighted front numbers.
