gm171 kk Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Hi lads, I took these videos of the recently revived DFDS liner this evening on the Lavistown loop in Kilkenny and at a level crossing a bit down the line as it was too dark to film the liner without lights by the time it moved off the loop. The liner arrived at the loop at about 5:50 and finally departed at around 7:05. Thanks to ttc0169 for the times/days of operations of the DFDS. Sorry about the big shake in the first vid, I was zoomed in when the driver blow his horn. Seán. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpCjqtbfTJM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53wkKC9Ffto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
