The new Enterprise!

Very sad news, received just now that Ian Walsh, who ran the Blue Thunder railtour, sadly passed away last night. May he rest in peace and my thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time.

I'll see what can be done...

The 14:05 & 18:05 from #Belfast and the 15:50 & 19:50 from #Dundalk will be non Enterprise services. They will be formed of 6 coaches, there will be no 1st+ available & limited catering. 0951 ex Dundalk today

6 x 3000 on 1005 today Seen it on the 1800 - Wasn't planning to head out as I was meant to be seeing the missus but the M3 was closed so decided to avenge my disappointment.

What service is it in next?

What time??

Can you send a link to it I cannot find it

Would anyone have an 071, 101, 111, 121, 141, 181 or 201 Class model for sale OO Gauge? Please private message me if anything.

Id be interested but I don't have a layout yet...

If anyone is travelling between 2nd and 4th August be aware there is a bus substitution from Connolly to Dundalk.

I have it

Would anyone know what happened to the UKTS add ons after the site shut? Is there anywhere they can still be downloaded?

Do Irish Rail still run that Friday only train from Connolly to Dundalk? It should be golden from Dundalk.

The Enterprise sets are absolute work horses - they're comfortable, smooth and pleasant journey, and yes while there are still issues occasionally I still see them as great sets.
