231 was at Inchicore during the week, not sure if it went back over, swaps are common enough but it's been a solid fixture on the Enterprises over the summer, I believe it may be coming up for a mileage based overhaul.

Yes I noticed 209 with its shell off in Inchicore last month. Not sure why could that be part of an overhaul?

In believe 209 is under overhaul alright.

How else do you work on the engine and generator?

207 hauled failed 233 from York Road to Dublin on Monday

I would've been out but the flu had other ideas!!

That explains the line-up at Connolly yesterday morning!

Two 201s and an 071 on shed, a rare sight there these days.

I must have been very slow, it's taken me 30 years to realise why it was diesel loco numbers 206 to 209 that were allocated to the Enterprise...

As far as I know the arrangement was always due to be 9001+9003 hauled by 206+207, while 9002+4 by 208+209. But strange if you ask me!
