Warbonnet Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Flickr is a bit of a goldmine when it comes to old pics, maybe we should post links to good pics or albums we find on our travels and post them on this thread? To start the ball rolling, a wee collection I found from around 1979. And for our bus friends Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warbonnet Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Another great Flickr album belongs to Ernie's Rail Archive - So many gems from the 1950's to the 90's. I love his British stuff too personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishswissernie Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 My Flickr site is perhaps a bit confusing to find what you are looking for as there are now 231 albums and 24674 photos spread over 8 collections. This is the Irish collection: https://www.flickr.com/photos/irishswissernie/collections/72157626625058875/ This should bring up the 24 Irish sets and then you just need to click on whichever set takes your fancy (if any do of course!)

DiveController Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Great photos! Anyone know what the white 'dayglo' panels are on 084 about photo no 80? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenderg Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Lol, that's not white. washed out/faded dayglo was regular then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiveController Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Saw it on several of the photos. When you looked from the side it looked like it had been applied to the front panels. I thought it was faded/dirty white or an experimental color before Dayglo was chosen! Seems they might not have been that effective then! lol, my mistake;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garfield Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Some pure filth here Some cracking shots there, especially the colour pics of Kilfree Junction and the Guinness railway... nice to see photos of how the narrow gauge Spence steam locos were able to run on the 5ft 3in sections! It's a crying shame that the Guinness Hudswell Clarke diesel shunter wasn't preserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave182 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 What a great find Warbonnet! I think there is quite a shortage of 1:76 trucks from the 80s and 90s. I see Oxford have a DAF cab listed for early next year- would love to see a Roadliner or Guinness version. Commission anyone?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
