  1. Thanks they do look very similar from when I was there regularly in the early 1980s! Did you get Narrow Gauge Steam 3 yet?
  2. The BR Green Class 26 is at Wick
  3. Will exclude Donegal.and the North Weat as usual!
  4. Miniature railway looks like the Ravenglass Line. Was at the RHDR line 10 days ago and still an unique experience today.
  5. Loco appears to be an LNWR Coal Tank
  6. The CSR lasted until 1960 and tried to run a railway until the end. Unlike the Lough Swillya lot of former CDR rolling stock survived more by accident than design. Have written an article on the CDR from 1960 to 1989 in Narrow Gauge Steam 3 by Kelsey Publishing just out this month.
  7. Agree with David that the Swilly was an incredible railway. That model loco is at the High Legh Minarture Railway in Cheshire. Loco is 7 and a quarter inch and photos do not do it justice!
  8. Must be worth 10 pound in Northern Bank notes at least for a job lot?
  9. Simular to this model.of a North London Railway tank loco?
  10. The real thing at the NRM today
  11. Seen one in Derry for sale with a similar sign for the Lough Swilly Railway Company!
  12. Well Colin at least we have a 7 and a quarter inch live steam model just built after 20 years in Cheshire. Some machine!
  13. Was in Wales on some Narrow Gauge yesterday Photo is a out Gweedore as I have a similar photo in my own collection showing that ballast siding
  14. They have also released a map for Fermanagh. They plan more Irish Maps soon responding to questions raised by myself The Enniskillen Map contains much Railway interest
  15. From Narrow Gauge Steam 3 by Kelsey Publishing. One of two CDR articles with some rare photos used.
  16. Was checking yesterday and we do have some drawings of both these CDR Railcars in the CDR Diagram Book from the 1930s.
  17. Private yes as some are for a future book I am working on for next year
  18. LPHC officially closed by end of August 1962. Little used after 1959 and was sent some photos of LPHC last week from 1960. All LPHC lines were mixed Gauge track up to the LPHC boundary posts. Have many photos of LPHC lines alongside Foyle on the East bank of the river.
  19. Send me a PM about the LPHC?
  20. See also Disused Stations website as we have some more photos posted there. Check under Derry or Londonderry Foyle Road station
  21. Check their website for a digital.copy?Will also check with the editor tomorrow as well for you.
  22. Did an article on the LPHC in February 2021 issue of Railway Bylines with maps and some rare photos.
  23. Seen a photo colour from 1972 at Heuston with an ex GNR P.Van in Black and Tan livery
