tonybonneyba Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Seen on Facebook this evening, [ATTACH=CONFIG]14050[/ATTACH] NI Railways used to do that on cliffs, I think it was because that had that cancer thing that you can catch from old train wagons etc.
tonybonneyba Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Also, it looks like the man is wondering, "I wonder where Mr. Hamil is ".
Broithe Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 NI Railways used to do that on cliffs, I think it was because that had that cancer thing that you can catch from old train wagons etc. Didn't they bury some in a quarry because of the asbestos?
Hunslet 102 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Didn't they bury some in a quarry because of the asbestos? They did Broithe,it was Crosshill Quarry near Antrim,a flooded quarry where most of the MED and MPD railcars were mothballed and met their watery end

tonybonneyba Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 They also put the 70 class into crosshill quarry too... Wha? Why!? Btw, is your profile pic of a 7 & 1/4 gauge class 110? & if so, where can I see it?
73.River.Roe. Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 The 70,s had blue asbestos in the roof panels and was really only discovered when one of the power cars was being inspected for possible preservation.... or so I was told back in 1985... yes that is 111 GREAT NORTHERN.. 7 1/4 gauge and its based at drumawhey......
Dunluce Castle Posted July 21, 2014 Author Posted July 21, 2014 It's a beautiful model, only wish I saw it running again I hope you don't mind me posting this here river.roe?
73.River.Roe. Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 No not at all Nelson and I also use to own 101 EAGLE too and was lucky enough to have built all the NIR locos at drumawhey.
