  1. This often happens in newspaper articles with old photos and incorrect dates etc!
  2. Some nice photos of the only Irish locos built at Crewe in current issue of Railway Bylines First of a 2 part article on the DNGR.
  3. Colin which of the two different versions of the Hudswell Clarke 4-6-2T locos. Either 15/16 or 7/8? My money would be on No 15. The last Swilly loco to be scrapped in 1954. ;
  4. See this photo from this article
  5. The last of the P Van's were painted NIR maroon but they never appeared to be cleaned so they looked different as John says.
  6. The embankment behind the loco was the original main line used before Bleach Green line opened in 1934

  18. Have a vast library of Irish Railway books. What are you planning to write a book about?
  19. 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.
  20. Limerick sounds right that was the Tour when No 4 came off the road a few times!
  21. Thanks for the positive comments for yesterday. Good feedback from PRONI as well.
