No blue 4.4.0s on it today?

(I remember the last blue 4.4.0 on the Thursdays only train - travelled on it too….)

 

[Galteemore]

At least we should see a blue 4-4-0 in Dublin before the end of the year ….

I'll be Enterprising again soon into the new year. Hope it's a DD, not a 29 class!

Enterprise worked well on Sunday, had a DD down on the 0805 and back on the 1450. We only took 31 minutes from Dublin to Drogheda compared to the booked 38 minutes.

On the 16.50 to Belfast

 Fine until Newry when a group of young people boarded with their Xmas carry out. Now we are listening to loud music and watching most of them vape 2

 Merry Xmas NOT

Staff walked past and said nothing!

Why would they drag it on themselves if the low IQ are carrying on like that I expect the lad will get a string of abuse. Just shows the standards that people uphold themselves to these days. Give me the car anyday.

Went from Birmingham to Telford the other week, Bought tickets, Conductor came on, checked ours, all ok. Asked this other passenger from another continent for a ticket and my god the Conductor could not get through to the dude and eventually walked off with no ticket produced.  Next time I will do the same.
