In 2023 Translink.stated that the green Mk2s would need chemical toilets fitted soon!
-
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

When the line closed the road bridge to Lifford was too weak to take lorries. Line quickly lifted to Lifford by Phoenix Erne used to lift most of the Letterkenny branch and why it ended up in Letterkenny. Have a new book on the railways of Strabane being launched in Donegal Towm on February 23rd -
