217 and 461 at Sutton in the Sun

[Warbonnet]

The RPSI ran the 'Spare Link' railtour last month from Dublin to Wexford and back which took in the Howth branch on the Sunday. This saw steam return to the branch for the first time in many years and a 201 class diesel making a rare appearance on the line.

 

Here's a photo of 217 at Sutton Station on the RPSI rake of cravens. You can see 461 in the background reversing back to Connolly.

 

 

 

And a video of both 461 and 217 in action...

 

 

Enjoy!
