    231 was the loco with a DD set not cleaned and covered in graffiti!

    Love the top photo will be in the station building in the Museum for 2 days this week!

    DD set visited GC for the first time yesterday morning. The platform clearances in platforms 5 to 8 were assessed as being too tight for passenger use! The Saga continues

    201 and DDs clearance tests at GC this morning. Problems identified with platforms 5 to 8. The Saga continues

    Great stuff digging out more photos of the Ballymena and Larne for another project. Showed some of these photos to galteemore senior recently

    None of the new retail units in GC open. 60% of bus stands open. No place to leave bikes ans no taxi drop off point. Did I mention no trains 2? Progress!

    Chris Conway claimed on radio that it would cost 50M£ to extend the Glider about 409 yards to serve GC .Currently only 16 bus stands out of 26 in use. No retail apart from a pop up coffee stand . No drop off point for taxis,noi cycle storage not convenient and still no trains!

    Looks like the issue is solved but Translink.saying nothing at present
  9. airfixfan
    Come October if no GC they will just return to Lanyon!
  10. airfixfan
    Translink have already asked but no spare ICRs available for the Enterprise
  11. airfixfan
    Expect an update on the 201 problem at GC later today
  12. airfixfan
    Sounds like a CAF
  13. airfixfan
    Train service going to Lanyon according to Irish Rail. External investigation to GC rail fiasco underway now

    At least they would pass the restrictions imposed on axle loading but are they passed for DDs to Dublin?
  15. airfixfan
    Seems to be no photos which supports the theory the real 201s are barred from the new station!
  16. airfixfan
    Any photos of 201s at Belfast Grand Central?
  17. airfixfan
    340 M£ for a new world class transport Hub with no trains allowed and no Glider connections to the City Centre. Eourops bus station still open but no buses which are using a still incomplete new bus station! Translink said it would sorted by Xmas but could say which year! For the tunnels!
  18. airfixfan
    And the 4-8-4Ts for the Craggy Island extension!

    Translink/DFI have called in the ORR and Network Rail to investigate. Little ballast on the concrete apron due to weight restrictions. Platforms 5 to 8 most affected
  20. airfixfan
    Appears to be the concrete apron installed at the station throat
  21. airfixfan
    85 is barred as well too heavy for the new track apparently
  22. airfixfan
    Belfast Telegraph today stares railway station is delayed by weight restrictions. We can rule out CAFs and ICRs so must be a 201s issue.?
  23. airfixfan
    That's what ai am trying to check? 227 at York Road meant to fo round for photos but it was cancelled on Monday
  24. airfixfan
    Anyone seen or have any photos of 201s at GC?
  25. airfixfan
    Lucky purchase and well done
