  1. Bottom photo at York Road would be around 1969 for two reasons. Firstly the poor condition of the Jeeps. Secondly the photo looks like it was taken in the summer so that rules out 1970 Remember seeing my first tamper about 1969 as well.
  2. Limerick sounds right that was the Tour when No 4 came off the road a few times!

  6. Thanks guys someone else has contacted me by phone to say it is a Drovers fan. Lots of cattle would have been shipped from Greenore. My contact is doing an article on the DNGR and is looking for photos of Greenore station and Hotel in particularm
  7. Anyone know more about what this was and any relevant details?
  8. PRONI told me this morning that this event on this Thursday at 14.00 is almost fully booked. There are less than 30 places left so just register through the PRONI website asap if interested.
  9. Tend to agree with John on this one as the new Cavan and Leitrim book which did not impress me much got a good review. Yet the new Green bible got a bit of a roasting at times when it is crammed with useful detail such as where the records are of some key loco builders etc!
  10. Thanks for the warning Steve. Tried to order this last week but their website blocked my order as it thought Ni was an international order with about 7 Euro extra for postage! No order placed. Sounds like a Del Boy production!

  12. Irish layout by Dave in current issue of Hornby Railway magazine.
  13. 595 was kept to run with the hauled BUT NIR coaches
  14. There is a feature on the new Hornby coaches in the latest issue of the Hornby Railway magazine.
  15. Number 4 would allow them to offer the LMS/BR type 2-6-4T in the future as well.
  16. The photo I posted in another thread on this forum of CC1 beside 800 came from that Steam World article from March 1992. Try magazine exchange website
  17. There are some rare photos of CC1 in Steam World article in March 1992 issue.
  18. And Ballyboley Junction! Thanks David
  19. During the latter years of WW2 the Lough Swilly due to severe coal shortages used turf and even wood as they could not get coal for their steam locos.
  20. From Australia!
  21. This diagram as a starter
  22. Do they not do a County Donegal bus?
