Darrman Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Recently I found some old photos of a family holiday. Sadly no photos were taken of the locomotive (if any), but a few were taken inside the coaches. Killarney, ~2006 Heuston?, ~2008. There may be trains outside the window, but I wouldn't be able to identify them. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhb171achill Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Dunno what the top one is - don't recognise the upholstery or the window shape..... lower one maybe a Mk 3 PP? Where was this train going to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrman Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 Lower one would have been Cork-Dublin, higher one Mallow-Tralee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhb171achill Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 OK, lower one a Mk 3 set, no doubt. I wonder is the top one a 2700? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrman Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 Thanks for the answers, everyone. I might have to get my hands on a Mark 3 at some point... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westcorkrailway Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 My first railway memories are of the last of the mark 3s and commuter livery DMU’s too. Hard to believe only last year we saw the end of that livery! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
