    Not really Grey B121 locos were never equipped to work in multiple until the early 1970's when they were in the B&T livery with some members of the class not being fitted for multiple working until they were in Supertrain livery in the late 1970's.

    A very under rated body which can be improved with a little work but still is not too bad nice weathering job.

    I think in later years it was always plywood, towards the end of their lives they would appear with doors patched or replaced with plywood unpainted .

    As far as I’m aware plywood some of the early ones were steel mesh think wood may have been preferred for corrosion. See 4.20 in this film

    Luckily I got some but certainly went very fast , like vultures down on a meat wagon !!
  13. flange lubricator
    Yes they certainly did but they would have had a second man in the cab for the trip to Barrack Street.

    Not strange at all steam locos had two crew members a driver and fireman, diesels had only one crew member a driver the 121 class could operate bonnet first but required a second man to be present, on a steam loco when the fireman was not firing, he would have been assisting the driver in sighting signals etc the same as the second man on a bonnet first 121 class would do.

    The retention of turntables at a lot of places decades after the end of steam was down to the 121 class .
  16. flange lubricator
    Yes 40'-45' seem to be the most common, with regard to the 121 class early in their careers one of them was operating bonnet first and was in collision with a PWD Trolley and this made the railway to change the rules regarding the 121-class operating bonnet first which was no longer permitted however on occasion this was done but there had to be a second man present.

    Thats sounds like a sensible plan hopefully people won’t be greedy and limit themselves to one or two packs so everyone will get an opportunity to get some .

    Not that I am aware of the first ones to be withdrawn were of this type a number of the ones at Mallow BFS were the older 30001-30099.

    No , your certainly not dim , there were two batches of 42’ containers flats , the first batch were built 1971 30001-30099 distinguished by using ride control bogies and second batch 30100 onwards built 1974 using sambre et meuse bogies virtually the same wagons.
  23. flange lubricator
    Received my Liners and Guinness this morning and they are fabulous wagons, I do notice that some of the wagons are numbered below 30100 which were the 1971 original 42 flats , I thought the ones that IRM were doing were the 30101 upwards numbers?
