Irish Rail trains on ‘The Branch’

[IrishTrainScenes]

Am I correct in saying that ICRs and DDs have been on the Antrim branch? I know 29s have.

DDs and ICRs are cleared in theory but have never been used yet

Sorry - I wasn't aware.

Don't want to go too far off-topic, as this has been touched on before HERE ON THE FORUM.

It would be a good idea, and a nice courtesy, if uploaded images were accompanied by a source url, where not actually taken by the poster.

I understand that it my not always be possible - we all have the odd railway related photo on our computer that isn't ours and we can't remember the source.

And, in some cases, it's not necessary.

For example, an eBay screenshot is going to be blatantly obvious as having come from eBay, and IRM screenshot the same, and so on.

A reverse image search in this particular case reveals ONE online source to be:

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://twitter.com/gee89n&ved=2ahUKEwjRo6XMqfCMAxUyRPEDHQMRMGMQn5YKegQIERAB&usg=AOvVaw3W9rnWFvoSfy9MlaRWzu6N

I can't remember my Twitter password so can't go any further.

There's no way of kowing if that is the original source or also a re-publication, but at least we can put in the effort.

To do a reverse image search via Google, go to Google Images, click on the camera icon in the search bar, and upload the image that you are trying to find a source for.

You are right DJ.

i was a bit surprised to have one of my photos taken off this site, manipulated, and then put back on. It still had my site address on it, but after that had been done I was not responsible for how it looked.

Nobody could sell books if all the photos were then scanned and put on the internet for free. That was what killed my DVDs off, because as soon as they went on sale somebody just copied them badly off their TV and put them on YouTube.

If you own it you can do what you like with it. If is belongs to somebody else then you might be in trouble - Jonathan Allen threatened to charge £1500 a go if his photos are used without permission.

Speaking of, not only do I have a few of your DVD’s, I also have a handful of these in the archive!

To my shame, I don’t have them all, just a handful on each format.

Couldn't agree more Noel.

Have this collection myself, unfortunately just missing number 1 and 11 of the IR Review series to complete.

[Niles]

I had them on VHS back in the day (picked up my first in Marks, Vol.2 the West). Have been gradually rebuilding as a DVD collection.

It's mad to look back at the Review series and see how the 'new' of the 2000s is now replaced itself in cases like the 8200s.

[Markleman]

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Still available folks. If you already have VHS let me know for a great deal on the DVD!
