Hi all - I am looking for any 1:76 vintage Garda vehicles, such as the van pictured. They are hard to find!! Cheers!

Some late evening views at CHD in September 1970 as Hunslet No. 102 ‘Falcon’ prepares to head back to Drogheda before returning north to Belfast Great Victoria Street.

Exciting

Thanks Alan, I’ve just realised the final photo was flipped, here’s the correct version

Busy summer Saturdays during the early 1970s at Clogherhead. Good times.

Looking forward to being one of this year’s guest speakers in the season of Winter talks given by The Railway Preservation Society of Ireland, in the company of some highly esteemed members of this forum, including @Galteemore, @GNRi1959 and @leslie10646 On Wednesday November 11th I will be giving an updated version of a previous presentation which takes the form of a photographic tour of the Belfast & County Down Railway, showing trains, stations, bridges, signals and much more! Full details on the attached poster. Once again an excellent series of talks has been organised by Charles Friel. Looking forward!!

Excellent both - thank you!

Hi folks - I'm doing some research for another insane crackpot video and was wondering is there a resource somewhere that gives the dates that each A class locomotive was re-engined, specifically the IRM model A15. Thanks as always!! Patrick

Black & tan & white & maroon & yellow at Clogherhead. As you can imagine, these two locos made quite a racket when they sat together. Look out for a diesel-themed video coming soon……

Back to the black & tan era for this short clip as A3r effortlessly lifts some Cravens and Park Royals, and a heating van, out of Clogherhead. The seagulls must’ve been off that day. IMG_5942.MOV

Thanks Mark - they take a bit of effort so I am always glad to hear that they go down well And sorry about the puns
