That's a very nice find, so what's happend to the model of Dun Laoghaire & the DART !!!

[richrua]

I am almost sure I was at that - age ten. I begged my mum to bring me out. I remember queuing up outside and some of the layouts. I bought some telegraph poles with my pocket money. I wrote about it in school the week after ... 4th class Mr. Murphy ... which tallies with the date of the video.

[DartStation]

The layout was built by South Dublin Model Rail Club and we are in the process of refurbishing the entire layout, the darts were modified from fleishman models and they still

Exist.

The intention is to refurbish using modern techniques and run some of Eoin's excellent models as part of the rolling stock.

 

Thanks
