Mallow Junction Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 So in the next few days, the Flat wagons in Tralee are to be moved. Paving the way for the restoration of the Turntable for RPSI steam trips. I assume they are going for the chop. The 52 in Mallow BFS cant be too far behind tho they have been prepared since 2016 http://traleetoday.ie/removal-of-old-freight-wagons-at-tralee-station-paves-way-for-steam-train-tourism/ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Shrives Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I guess the bogies could be reused but the skeletal bodies might well beyond help - with age or perhaps too short for 45 footers or even 53 footers. I wonder ( easy with other folks money) if preserving some so a historic freight could be made up at some time in the future to show how CIE used to run freights - some "fallen Flag" containers on them as well..
