    The Achill line is to be reopened, worked by 29000 class... A line between Belfast and Baltimore is opening on the 30th February next year. NIR is considering buying a new batch of AEC and BUT railcars,with IE, to run the line. 5 new Beyer Garrets are being built for the tough gradients of the T&D,with the cattle specials,for the fair of dingle next month. 50 new "standard" 2-6-0 locomotives are being built, to take over services from the ICRs...

    Meabh has been removed from Cultra, to help haul the MK4s Merlin is going to haul the refurbished enterprise. The turfburner, is being rebuilt, after The directors of IE were given good good shouting at by the ghost of Bullied, to work the Tara mines! The 071s are to be reduced to minimal duties, after IE announced that 20 new J15s were to be built.

    Liam Clare,2007. Not sure where one would get a copy. Nonsuch publishing? The link beneath the pic of the book might provide a few more details... I know EVERYTHING! (Not medically accurate)

    Could this be the book John? http://www.industrialheritageireland.info/TikiWiki/tiki-index.php?page=The+Bray+and+Enniskerry+Railway

    They seem to have a 10 coupled one now...

    I'm thinking of taking the chassis apart, and buying the Poppy's wood tech jig and building it around that.

    I didn't know what the spacer bars were until it was too late, so I went through a lot more hardship than I needed too. Are you using compensation? They wouldn't be easy for that.

    Actually, what if Irish rail was privatised, into 2-3 different companies,maybe in 2011?
  10. GSR 800
    Thanks for the advice, it's working well now.
  11. GSR 800
    How's your j26 getting on anyway?
  12. GSR 800
    Not far off Broithe! This looks like CIE green... What the Hell is going on!? Something that looks like a roundel on one side,a green interior, and of LNER design?
  13. GSR 800
    Right, I'll be back!
  14. GSR 800
    In the case, minister, it seems we have ruined the status quo! John will be baffled!
  15. GSR 800
    So.. Re privatise?
  16. GSR 800
    Took some more today. I'm not hallucinating. After a bit of a clean..
  17. GSR 800
    Jesus that was some rant, eh? I musnt have had tea in a good while.. But seriously.. Meabh: because she was the first in service, might have reached the ton, and of. Course was preserved Macha: a lot of film of her,and(I think) she was the last one in service with the IRRS rail tour in 1964. Tailte didn't last very long, and she was like the Britannia of the Olympic class.. Her sisters cast a long shadow over her...
  18. GSR 800
    Watch it Beumont! You know Tailte is my least favourite 800! (Grumbles incoherently)
  19. GSR 800
    Can you see it in the one above John? Can anyone? I must be hallucinating
  20. GSR 800
    I must be going mad....
  21. GSR 800
    Look inside the O John, that was the point of it, so it would be easier to see it! Apart from the V, which I saw on a loco once, nothing visible. It's wedged in a bush too...
  22. GSR 800
    Definitely a roundel on it.. Inside the crappy circle I drew..
  23. GSR 800
    Exterior shots are already up there John! Are ye standing on yer head again? Actually can anyone else see a very faded roundel on the "mini container"?
  24. GSR 800
    Doesn't make much sense though...
  25. GSR 800
    The strapping certainly matches up...
