C/201 class in its many guises and liveries. Stephen

Wasn’t the third class 80 set used on the reintroduced Dublin-Maynooth service? Stephen

Or what about Waterford North with five routes and eight platforms. Stephen
-
Can only agree with the comments immediately above. Stephen

One of many excellent histories of the railways Ireland. Thoroughly recommended as a read. Stephen

When she had her overhaul at Tuam, she received a new boiler courtesy of the SVR. Stephen

To anyone involved in the early of getting a heritage railway off the ground, these photos evoke powerful memories. Lovely to see. Stephen -
A lovely video. There’s an interesting reference to the role of the Stormont government in the closure programme of the 1950’s. It wasn’t interested in anything outside of the six counties, very inward looking. I’m not sure if that view has changed in some parts of unionism. Apologies if I have strayed into a no-go area but it was part of the video. Stephen

Sold out. Stephen

I thought for a moment that Kirley had returned to this forum. No, just someone bringing to our attention his YouTube channel. Better than nothing I suppose. Stephen

That is quite some report that Ove Arup has produced, including some completely new lengths of railway. There are some interesting omissions, the obvious one being Enniskillen and it’s hinterland. Stephen
-
If you look on the home page of their website, you’ll see they are producing three further versions, one with the Z boiler and two with the original boiler. Stephen

There is a review in the latest issue of Railway Modeller. It makes good reading. Stephen

StevieB replied to spudfan's topic in What's happening on the network?
Surely it’s a new freight flow by rail. Stephen -
Condolences to you and your family on your loss. He was a fine modeller. Stephen

I didn’t realise they were available now. I hadcthe idea that we were looking much later this year. I must get my order in. Looks stunning by the way. Stephen

What’s the origin of the J15? It’s obviously not an 00 Works J15. Stephen

More than a few years ago Ballyconnell Road was at Railwells and, just like Leslie, I spent most of my time watching it. It may be small but it is beautifully engineered and, most importantly, operated like the real thing. In particular, there is a lot of shunting of freight trains, something that is missing from many exhibits. Stephen

The CIE rebuild of 1950’s stock as per the JM Design overlays. Stephen

Dreams do come true. Stephen

Back then 100 quid would have been quite some sum. What was the asking price? Stephen
