  13. My own research suggests it was scrapped in 1968. Scrapmen were told not to scrap anything painted red but the Swilly busmen had painted Erne with green Swilly paint about 1965.
  14. The Blue GMs being retained for future relay and ballast work only Not likely

  16. 50k per chemical toilet us a rough figure
  17. In 2023 Translink.stated that the green Mk2s would need chemical toilets fitted soon!
  18. Another factor for NIR trips is that the green Mk2s have not been on the mainline for 27 months now. Most of them have not left the carriage shed for 2 years now. Plus Translink do not allow the Blue GMs on charter trains Groups I know made enquiries but we're rebuffed
  19. What a pity Erne was scrapped as it was painted in Swilly green
