Nice tidy job done on the no smoking signs, they bring it up an other level 👍

 

That little sideline will be coming to an end soon. IRM are trying to put @Rob out of business by pre-installing their "No Smoking" signs.

He probably smashed up all of his coaches in a big tantrum after seeing that, hence he's been missing for three months now.

His next video will be light locos with no rolling stock.

Dublin Bus (Conyngham Road) RV 334 (97-D-334) passing Heuston North, sporting an ad for Madonna's concert held at Slane Castle twenty years ago to the day.

I'm sure many here were at it 😀.

Dublin Bus (Conygham Road) RV 394 (98 D 20394) outside the container yard at Heuston North.

Twenty years to the day today it launched in the cinemas, it's carrying an ad for an (unmemorable!) Jude Law film, 'Alfie'!

Great photos, I love the level of detail everywhere. Have to ask where did you get the bulk liquid container loads, they look superb!

Hi @josh_.

Those standard Mark III's in that video are not LIMA as you say but repaints of Mark III coaches from Hornby (I think)- it was a good few years ago.

They then had modifications such as the windows on the doors added.

Hope it helps- well spotted!!

I was always a Mark III fan and in particular, the Irish Rail Restaurant coach with its unique window layout and roof vent structure differentiating it from the British Rail equivalents.

A few shots of 7402 and 7410 around Heuston North.

Absolutely class, @Rob!

The roof weathering on the Mk2D is particularly nice, like it spent too much time right behind the locos.

Love the Mk3 photos. The first two in particular look like photos from a rolling stock book by Doyle and Hirsch.

Top notch stuff.
