GNRi1959

Anyone know if there is anyway able to laser cut building parts from cad drawings. Can they be cut from 30thou plasticard?

I spoke to Herbert years ago and he showed me many cad drawings of GNR(l) wagons that he done on an early computer. He told me years later that he hadn't the knowledge of current computer systems to open the files.

I'm unable to attend, playing in Omagh town centre with St. Eugene's Brass and Reed Band, entertaining the Christmas shoppers!

Some amazing scenes here JB

I'm sure l was speaking to Colm Flanagan today though he didn't identify himself

And very good it was too

Without any doubt, the highlight of my day was Fintonagh by David Holman.

Thanks to Lambegman who notes the outing was Portadown return with visit to Omagh Market Branch and Cookstown branch.

Not to be confused with the Joint IRRS SLS 1964 tour

Thank you Galteemore

Is anyone familiar with the full itinerary for the IRRS Tour featuring UPs 42x, please

I am writing a book on Omagh Station with deadline approaching fast. I have been given much support from our own JB who has edited and proofed much of the text, contributed work on rolling stock and the demise of the GNR. I also have had some excellent assistance from Eric Challoner and Lambeg Man, l am grateful of their help. ERNIE has provided his Omagh selection and it is appreciated. Many others have come forward and I hope my acknowledgments leave nobody out. I wanted to ask all board members if they have any information on Omagh, unpublished photos or simply anything I may not have to email me please, there may be something out there. With a publishing contract signed, the book is earmarked for release next year. tmcgartland@gmail.com Thanks

See you there guys

I have some of his photos from Omagh, they are superb

I got that feeling too JB.

Does anything know who is the keeper of the photographs of J. Langford ?

Funny how the mind works, I found it

I have seen a photo taken of the track section operated by Omagh South Cabin. I don't know where but can l put out a request that if anyone has seen or got, they'd let me know please. I have the North.

What did the permanent way weed spraying crews use on the permanent way. I see from the wagon book drawings they had a 3000gallon tanker and an old carriage under frame carrying another tank with a capacity of 800 gall. So what were they using in each?

Pictured during track relaying at Omagh - anyone know the wagon type in shot and also is the loco an LQG 0-6-0 though it appears to be marked D No.119 Can anyone shed light on it please?

Interesting, David I apologise about the nature of the cropping but too many copyrighted photographs are being snatched off here for facebookers sites.

Top stuff JB

Can anyone shed any light on the wagon type seen here at Omagh in 1964 and the van parked behind the loco? Please

Got my copy from Martin Bott today, absolutely mint
