It would be nice to if IE would do a few of the 071s in a 'fallen flags' scheme for example one in DSER livery with the company logo a dates of existence another in MGWR , GNR and so on all the companies that made up CIE and would provide a historical link to the history of the railway. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would actually be amazing. Mind you, the current grey is only a shade lighter than the standard GSWR / GSR / CIE grey! So that’s those taken care of…… MGWR green or DSER lined black would be nice, and flyin’ snail green! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttc0169 Posted July 1, 2022 Author Share Posted July 1, 2022 When 056 developed engine failure a few weeks ago,it was hauled back to the MPD at Tara junction for attention, In the following video and photos we see the locomotive being hauled out of the MPD by 027 and after the refurbished power unit has been installed,027 pushes the locomotive back into the shed for final checks and a start up While in the shed the opportunity was taken to affix the IR logos to the body side and relocate the 056 numbers to underneath the cabs.
