    Nice footage of the Esso liner on the Sligo line from 3.00
  2. flange lubricator
    The Esso wagons were much bigger too 15'0" wheelbase and 25'2 1/2"length and 27'8 1/2" over buffers with a 6000 Gallon capacity .

    I think as the wagons aged they were downgraded from Class A petrol to finally home heating oil Kerosene.

    No they were CIE wagons used on those trains , the 971-1013 wagons we different and owned by ESSO Teo , but operated and maintained by CIE / Irish Rail .

    Another interesting thing about these wagons they were the first wagons to carry “beware over overhead lines “ as they had been running on BR and when they arrived in Ireland in 1971 we had no lines with overhead wires, which didn’t happen until the Dart in 1979 .

    Brilliant news lovely wagons I have some of the Heljan ones and they are super detail . One minor point I think they are A class wagons with the longer barrel the B class were the shorter barrel running numbers 995 , 996, 997, 998 & 999 ?? I know the classification refers to the type of product carried and latterly the were all B class

    They were also used on the Claremorris and Galway (oranmore) lines .

    @seagoebox posted these in another thread about the Palvans these give the dimensions except for the height which I would estimate from the other dimensions to be 12ft.

    I’m certainly with you on this one with the orange v black roofs I was going to something similar but have decided to hold onto them too .

    I also received mine and they are stunning models very happy with them , Wondering if IRM will sell the lighting strips as kits so I can fit to my Murphy models Mk2a's.
