Broithe Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 IE have launched a competition aimed at 10-16 year olds. Win it and you get to drive the train simulator. Reckon you could get away with it? There's some interesting pictures in the associated links on here - http://www.irishrail.ie/cat_news.jsp?i=4615&p=116&n=237 Quote
Broithe Posted June 5, 2012 Author Posted June 5, 2012 Irish Rail has just Tweeted this - "A few asking if you have to be a kid to win train driver for a day prize: afraid so, but clearly a market for a "big kid" prize in future :)" - so maybe they'll let an old boy have a go at some point..? Quote
Castletown Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 Just got the young chap to complete the quiz, thanks for letting us know about it. We downloaded the ExplorerIE pdf but the only link to work is that of the Scouts, is it the same for everyone else? Quote
Broithe Posted June 5, 2012 Author Posted June 5, 2012 The 'Trains' link worked for me - I hadn't tried any of the others yet, saving them for later. Obviously, you'll have to 'supervise' him if he wins... Quote

Broithe Posted June 5, 2012 Author Posted June 5, 2012 The thought never crossed my mind. I almost believed you. I've not been well today.. Quote

Castletown Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 None of us are well, the BH finished yesterday and the interactive PDF isn't very interactive. Quote
BabyGM Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 How exactly does one fill out the quiz? Never mind I just found out You just have to click the highlighted word kids Quote
BabyGM Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 You're too old. no, I'm not:p It's a pity they didn't ask for an essay ,I could have gone on for pages and pages about the removal of locomotive hauled stock, though I suppose if I won I couldn't be got out of inchicore, even though there's little enough left now:(( Quote
Castletown Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 Hah! liar, you'd break their hearts with stories of the freight. Quote
