    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.

    Would anyone know the origin of the marking on the Wexford quays? I have heard it once marked the joining point of the DSER and the Fishguard harbour railway from Rosslare port to Wexford. Any truth in this?

    Hi Guys, I am interested in knowing more about the corrugated metal buildings used on different railways especially those on the Macmine to New Ross line and the Rosslare, Wexford to Waterford line. I am amazed how long these lasted despite the basic building materials. and would love to now was there a standard design for these. Is there any book published on the architecture? Any assistance would be much appreciated. Palace East: Wellington Bridge: Campile Station: Glenmore Station: Wexford South:
