    I thought the ITG , RPSI etc. had to remove all their stuff a few years back as some of Inchicore was going to be sold off for land development?

    Not sure if its been mentioned here before but if you like early CIE diesels, this is the video for you! First 10 mins shows how the IRRS digitized, edited and processed old film and is presented by Ciarán Cooney The action starts around 12 mins in and shows a down Cork Sulzer 113 ( never see a video of of those before), double A classes, Sulzer's, E class, all the small GMs and amazing rolling stock etc. Thank you to Tom Dowling, Ciarán Cooney and the IRRS for putting it together and hopefully they will process more for viewing

    That pic was taken by the late great Paddy Kennedy, I found it many years ago as a 1 x 1 inch slide and had this gem of a photo lifted from it

    Thankfully, I've had zero issues with DHL. My models usually take 4 days Dublin - E. Midlands - CINCINNATI - Dallas USA

    TRAMS

    K801 posted a topic in General Chat

    I'm not sure how all these trams ended up in Maine, but next visit I'll see if there's anything from Ireland hidden in the acres of trams out back!

    Good point, Sixteen English Electric 0-6-0DE 350 hp locomotives, based on the Class 08 design but modified for 1,600 mm (5 ft 3 in) gauge, were built new and exported 1951–53 to Australia, entering service on the Victorian Railways as the F class ( The CIE 401 were built in 57/58) So, if anybody has a repainted Hornby/Lima/Bachmass BR 08 on an Irish layout, you can say it was imported from down under!

    Very nice. Who owns that little loco and two coaches?
  22. K801
    I believe a Mk2D EGV can power up to 13 MK2D coaches?

    any update on 7122, has it been scrapped?

    remember a 14 piece (13 x Mk2 Supertrain coaches and 1 x GSV van tagged on the rear) leaving Waterford around 9pm on Sunday evenings, could hear the 071 nearly all the way to Thomastown!
