jhb171achill Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 In the latest ITG magazine, among the usual roundup of what the current state of the rolling stock fleets is, there is a reference to a vehicle no. 7161 "preserved" in Inchicore. What is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railer Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 7161, after being withdrawn from service was used as a livery test coach for the current green goddess livery on the 29ks. It was preserved by the RPSI to act as a rest area for RPSI staff/members working on site at Inchicore. It is not intended to ever see mainline use again.

jhb171achill Posted March 29, 2017 Author Share Posted March 29, 2017 Thanks, Railer, for clarifying that. That's a good use for it indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
