    The CDR stock at Strabane were just beside the perimeter of the Army base in Strabane and about 400 yards from the border When Dr Cox paid a visit in late 1970s to the stock he had to hide as the local IRA fired a few rounds at the Army base!

    Yes that was the plan to use ignite not coal for the new Kilroot Power Station. They even planned to reopen the line from Monkstown to Greenisland

    Was planning on doing the tour to go to for a rare run from Dublin behind 112. Will give it a miss now but do a few tours from Dublin later this summer.
  23. airfixfan
    And two free IRM A Class as well 2!

    Have used the money saved for Dublin Hotels for two nights to book a holiday. Here 112 needs repairs and until then restricted to 40mph by Irisn Rail
  25. airfixfan
    Glad I did not pay 600 Euros for 2 nights in Dublin as 112 is now replaced by two IE 071s instead due to issues with 112!
