Here's another tester for you and one of the main reasons why IRM is so helpful.
Am compiling info for the SLNCR railcar B. Got the drawing, plus a range of photos, including the colour ones in Irish Traction & Irish Rly in Colour 1 & 2. However, would appreciate any info on the interior of the railcar, including:
- colour of seats; in one pic they look green, but were backs same as upholstery?
- interior paintwork; driver's cab looks brown, but was passenger compartment the same?
- flooring; have my own photos of the Finn Valley's Walker railcar [grey], so could be the Sligo's was the same?
- driving controls; any ideas? Forgot to record details above...
Also, was there a door between the passenger saloon and the luggage compartment? Have a nice picture of the saloon from Backtrack Nov 1995,albeit in black and white, but has enabled me to master and cast the seats.
Am hoping a few of you might have seen the Railcar in CIE days and/or Downpatrick, so fingers and toes are firmly crossed in anticipation.
