Your wish has been granted,

Evening all,

 

An afternoon visit to Portarlington Station to photograph 086 on the 1130 Waterford - Westport Timber and the 4 car Premier Class 22033 on the 1525 Heuston - Limerick, plus various other comings and goings.

[RedRich]

Great pics as usual Wanderer. 086 was always one of my favourites. I must get out and track her down myself for some pics. She looks cool with the orange and black door. If it is the same door, it has appeared on a few of the 071's in the silver and black livery.

 

Rich,

[thewanderer]

Cheers Rich

 

I was sitting my comfy house and knew when it left Kildare. Off down to the station and was rather dismayed when it arrived into the loop After looking at the timetable I realised it wouldn't go anywhere until the 1310 Westport - Heuston arrived at Port, so off home I went again to get warm!

 

I don't know why it was delayed at Kildare. It arrived only +3 into Kildare, but left +30 late.

Had a good look at them earlier on Fran. The Presidential Coach looks beautiful. Take them as often as you can as they will be a great reference for people in the future as well as now. The MM models look nice also.
