Not yet the Unions will walk out on these dates unless they get the pay rise they want. Public Holiday in NI on Monday and Tuesday as well.

Then there is the Translink train strike planned for Friday 18th and Saturdsy 19th No trains will run as the signalling staff will are walking out well timed for the Open in Portrush!

Locked up on a shed at the Causeway. The owner has tried to sell them but wants silly money. Both need an overhaul after heavy use undervthe current management

Was meant to but used Templepatrick loop instead

Was 231 this morning but went to Antrim

Some of the CDR tank wagons used for water for locos on the lifting train

Presumably wagon was sold to Dr Cox in 1961
