Mike 84C Posted April 21, 2013 Posted April 21, 2013 Brilliant find, thanks for posting. Flared trousers from the 70"s!! One style I hope never makes a come back! Quote
Eiretrains Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Some nice photos on that page, the one of A23r passing an 'old' Monasterevin being very interesting. Quote
Garfield Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Brilliant find... love the photos of the Black & Tan locos hauling the Supertrain MkIIs. Quote
heirflick Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 fantastic shot of a busy galway...always loads of motive power back then! Quote
Blu Bianco Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Wow, 148 is in there, haven't seen a pic of her in ages. One of the lesser photographed engines of the 141 class. These collections that pop up now and then are often a treasure trove of 'lost' or rare images. Someday a pic of 191 may turn up, who knows! Quote
Southern Yard Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Wow...A mixed black and tan pair haven't seen one of those shots before. Great era with different liveries, motive power and coaches. Locos generally were kept very clean in the 70s , no odd doors to be seen on locos in those days. Is it just me or does anyone else think that the 121s looked really smart in the black and tan livery, by far their best livery. Made them very photogenic!

Glenderg Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Is it just me or does anyone else think that the 121s looked really smart in the black and tan livery, by far their best livery. Made them very photogenic! Yeah, fully agree, it was one of the smartest looking, and in hindsight of the grey and yellow sensible schemes. I am partial to the grey and yellow though... That "short goods train" photo is a classic though! Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 These have to be my favourite Photos courtesy of The late J.W. Sutherland Quote
