Jawfin Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 At the high, high risk of looking like a moron, can I ask if anyone knows which coaches (as in, just the numbers) were involved in the, "Quiet Man," film at Ballyglunin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 minister_for_hardship Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 One piece was cut from the opening scene..In the intended opening scene, Wayne speaks to a mother and her child gives him an apple (he exits the train holding the apple and thanks the unseen child). So we missed out on footage of a GSWR compartment interior! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Weshty Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Great information John. The book, A Decade of Steam on CIE in the 1950s, was published by the RPSI 1974. There is no ISBN number given. I bought it sometime ago, but only perused it "proper" since reading Mayner's comments on it. Beg borrow or steal a copy. It is a great read with comments from ex-drivers, loads of technical data and photos. Some lovely detail on the J26 and Bandon Tank too.

0 Lj2009 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Hello does anyone know what model train this is if I was looking to buy a model like this or similar ? My father has a huge interest in model railway and the quiet man and I'd love to get him this train for Christmas but I've no idea where to even start to find one the same. Thanks for any help Liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 jhb171achill Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Unfortunately, Liam, there's no commercially available train set which looks within light years of the train (either locomotive or coaches) in "The Quiet Man"! SSM do a brass kit of some of the coaches but these would require a reasonable level of modelling skill to make up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
