  1. Does anyone know who's doing the transfer tomorrow? It could well be the last batch I've been told.
  2. No need to worry about the stobart rail livery on the 201s now, as stobart group are changing the livery's on the trucks to match in with there new logo, so I suspect that the stobart rail livery will change too since the logo has already changed after the Eddie stobart company being split into two different companies, stobart group & Eddie stobart.
  3. When FGW sent 8 mk3s over to inchacores works, Ireland, Irish Rail / Iarnód Éireann had made a mistake & sent the 8 back..... They sent it back with the wrong paint scheme!
  4. Put the ducks on a new route, maybe Derry\Londonderry - Cork Via all enterprise stops & intercity & too shorten the route, go via the Antrim Branch into Lisburn Plt 3.
  5. Intercity (mk4/MKIV ) also avaible, http://www.ebay.ie/itm/IRISH-HORNBY-mk4-SET-5-CAR-SET-SILVER-GREEN-IR-INTERCITY-/181489060580?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item2a41974ae4 But at £30.00 / €37.00 postage, I'm not going near them, just asking a bit too much if you ask me...
  6. Cool, the cab looks like the cab from the EX-NIR USP 3000 C Ballast Regulator (see picture below)
  7. Here's on I found fir sodor mail, I think the people who like tpos will like this [video=youtube_share;37OtJKhxAVQ]
  8. Just a shame very little of it still lives.....
  9. If there was, I wouldn't able to tell you, sorry. Your welcome & thanks.
  10. A guy in marks models once told me that a guy from England will being buying some coaches & locos from Irish Rail & will be converting them to be used as a Pullman train to go on long rail tours all across the island of Ireland, at the cost of between €500-€1000 per ticket. If this is true, may that man hurry up and save some mk3s.
  11. Here yea go, not the best shots in the world, but I'm sure you'll like it Above is a ex - Translink NI Railways tamper converted into a hedge cutter (which no longer works).
  12. I think there was a class, 141 & 171, don't shout at me if I'm wrong
  13. I watched and photographed her when she arrived, due to stupid bus timetables,I missed her unloading All my pics are up on http://www.flickr.com/tonybonneybatrainphotos
  14. Would you like see pics of the hedge cutter?
  15. Above is the Plasser type 7 No. 7 tamper ( work still being down to keep her going!).
  16. Why thank you! There will more pics of these babies soon!
  17. Here's an idea for Iarnód Éireann, convert 8-10 mk3s into a royal train for "high ups" or important people as when the G8 (I think that's what it was) all the important people had to travel by bus, meaning no buffet car, no 1st + / city gold and no toilet facitlys. Where as ( let's say the queen ) visits Belfast & decides while she's on the island of Ireland, she wants too visit cork & Dublin, instead of wasting money on planes & land rovers when they can travel by train, a royal train. What do you think of that idea?
  18. Hi all, I have some photos of some yellow Machinces for those who like the big yellows. Above is the EX-Translink NI Railways USP 3000 C ballast regulator as seen at Downpatrick & County Down Railway
