Noel Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) Not working for me either now. I'll repost them as embedded photos tomorrow. There is a bug in the forum that's deleting attached JPG files about an hour or two after they are attached. (I.e. Vbulletin thinks they were not referenced so auto deleted after a timeout). This seems to only affect posts with more than one attachment. Edited October 14, 2017 by Noel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) One coupling handling 4500hp. 071 to GSV. Im guessing with two powerful locos the acceleration had to be limited to avoid straining the cravens couplings.

John-r Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Great to meet so many IRM-ers and others yesterday! Likewise a pleasure as always jhb. Great sight to see two heritage locos, both very well turned out along with the coaches all spotless, A credit to all who put time and effort into the tour, although I only met it in Tralee it must have been a very enjoyable trip. unfortunately on the day I could only find a tablet that I was not familiar with to take photos with, I thought I had some great shots when I got home most were of the platform ah well.

Im guessing with two powerful locos the acceleration had to be limited to avoid straining the cravens couplings. [ATTACH=CONFIG]28855[/ATTACH] Not sure. Apparently 6,400hp from the NIR 111s was certainly enough to damage a coupling. I'm sure it would depend on train weight also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Some video of the Munster Double that I took: Excellent video Robbie. Tastefully shot and edited. Love the opening scene.

RobertRoche Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Thanks everyone! I was surprised how 'some' folk just jumped in the way of other folks cameras without any apparent consideration.

Noel Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Thanks everyone! As was the case in Mallow, that folk was myself, d'oh! Nice gentleman @ 2m23s in shot Most folks seemed to try their best, but there were one or two who got 'short shift' and verbals from the passenger 'paparazzi' pack in Cork when they wandered into shot.
