    I don’t think these coaches had storage tanks , but with battery boxes there is a lot of confusion all of these coaches park royals , buffet cars and brakes had four battery boxes two on each side this was common practice, worlsey works supply them with only two battery boxes , I recently got a IFM TPO and this only has two as well when it should be four . I think the confusion comes from UK coaches normally having two but in Ireland particularly with CiE it is four or if its a TL coach then it’s no battery boxes .

    Y Yes they had dynamos and battery boxes some were later fitted with TL lighting but many would keep the batteries/ dynamo until they were withdrawal in the mid 1980's . Great work on the laminate

    The carraige behind A42 looks like one the Radio Studios RS 25 ex 2117 or RS 26 ex 2118

    001 kept the highlighted numbers for many years afterwards which kind of made it unique .

    Great to see all the various liveries represented will be getting supertrain and Black and tan liveries . The only A class missing is supertrain liveried 001 with highlighted front numbers and black roof covers as ran with the early supertrain Mk2's , wonder if this maybe added in the future .

    I think the snatchers started being removed in the early eighties , snatching finished in 1979/80.

    Does it need new traction tyres?

    019 was involved in a shunting mishap and had a bent frame as a result , IR used it to test the new livery for the 201's I don't think it ever ran in that livery.

    With the IFM TPO's , Park Royals, the Worlsey works laminates the missing link is 8' commonwealth bogie looks very well at this early stage , well done .

    I have a feeling that over the next number of months we are going to see a major sell off of silverfox/MIR A class locomotives on ebay etc

    Some seem to be just B&I ans some B&I line , they were very similar to the BR freightliner containers of the same period.
  23. flange lubricator
    Yes well spotted the early containers were slightly smaller now called non standard iso containers .
  24. flange lubricator
    Most of the early B&I containers were 20' the 40' blue containers did not appear until much later below is a link to an O'Dea photo of a single 121 with a B&I liner http://catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000307819
