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. Quote

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? Quote
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 Quote

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......
