    Rosslare Strand station - no longer in existence. Early signal box in Rosslare Harbour - long gone. And I believe the same signal box in 1993. It separated the shore line (to engine shed etc. and the pier which was later the Europort station.

    Another example of mixed rolling stock. This time Cobh May 1971. The train consists of what may be a 1953 built standard, a Park Royal, a "Dutch van" and a "Craven And a double headed 121 set with what looks like Cravens and Park Royals on the way to Rosslare from Dublin 1987. Limerick Junction to Limerick train in 1993 I believe. And finally a mix of Cravens and Park Royals at Tralee, 1984.

    Another lovely photo from Rosslare in 1987. The train on the left, headed by two of CIE's 121 class locomotives, is bound for Dublin (Connolly), while the train on the right is for Cork. Would these have been the suburban types or the mainline with toilets? Really need those Tin Vans or a 6 wheel Heating and Luggage Van please IRM!!!!!

    Hi guys, Can anyone help with dating this signal lamp? I believe it is after 1935 based on the brass name plate though an earlier design. Were these used in Ireland?

    The water tower base is still there I think. I remember reading it was very cramped and not really suited to the work being done.

    I think the work IRM and Paddy Murphy have done has created / demonstrated a viable market with loyal collectors. The range of models available, especially the recent A Class has been a game changer.

    Hi guys, Will there be any Black Friday deals from IRM this year?
  22. Wexford70
    Same, nostalgia is a strong driver of collecting.

    Did any of the buffet coaches ever have black rooves?
  24. Wexford70
    When I asked Paddy he said hopefully sometime next year but the manufacturer has warned of production challenges. These will appear before the MK3 as the driver cab is proving a real challenge.
