Thanks guys, very interesting.

Amazing! The weather on that benny van is particularly sublime...
-
Does anyone know anything about this little thing? Even though it's at Cork Loco Depot, I would've thought that it was too small for shunting locos, so maybe it was built by a private industry..?

Derry Port and Harbour Commissioner had a few, No. 1 (at Cultra), I presume a No. 2, and No. 3, "R. H. Smyth," (Harvey). Did the LPHC any more?
-
The NCC had a similar one, too

Does this count? http://www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/5736907701/#

Thanks, lads. I was asking on behalf of a friend (honest!) I apologise for my ignorance

I'm pretty sure that the last withdrawal was 617 in 1977, then they they went to CSE afterwards. The ITG's website supports this, too: http://www.irishtractiongroup.com/ITG_locos/loco_617.htm

Hey, I've been told (from a multitude of sources) that CC1's frames were filled with cement or something and used as a bridge on a golf course. Can anyone shed any light (presuming it's true!), like if the bridge is still there or what golf course it's on?
-
A few coaches were in that fire, too, I believe. Only cut up in 2005, I think - why keep it so long? Where was it, since Westrail was long gone by then?
-
Poor 615... The sugar G that got away! I think there were two types of CSET Ruston..? The small ones like the one at Whitehead etc., and the larger Westrail one (one-off?) that got cut up?
-
That reminds me, I found part of a GSWR (if I remember correctly) signal lever the other week... I'll try and find it again soon I'm told that there's around 20 grounded coaches and vans in the North alone. By the way, does anyone know of an NCC saloon (or at least half of one) grounded somewhere? Some guy came into Downpatrick last year saying that he knew of one that apparently was a royal saloon.

Glad that no one's dead, thank God. I wonder what would have happened to No. 36 if she was still in her old position on the platform..?

Love the random looking genny van near the end of it Nice vid

Some new photos from the shunt at Downpatrick last week: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/gallery/album/2724-trains-around-ireland/ Did you see a wee lad working under the O&K yesterday? Wonder who that was...
