The superb IRM/Heljan oil tanks get their first run behind 192+160 on Tara junction,as @BEANO3005said a little drop of oil on the axle boxes really improves the running of the wagons. 
 

B188 works the return goods train from Sligo via the Burma road to Northwall.

Friday night fun on Tara junction

6101+134 work a Longford-Dublin Connolly push pull service

080 arrives from Galway hauling the Mk2 a/b service

112 passes through Tara junction and promptly fails in the tunnel -fortunately the experienced driver found the fault and restarted the locomotive and continued on to Dublin Connolly. 
 

018 works the empty Sligo-Northwall oil train passing 048 which is working the Northwall-Claremorris laden oil. 

017 works the Fridays only 17:00 Heuston -Ballina Mk2D set.

Just caught the YouTube update and had to log in.

Great video, as always, nostalgia gold.

Love the push-pull Mk3 set. Is the DVT Silver Fox or DC Kits or something else?

Cheers and thanks Dave…it’s a silver fox control car👍👍👍👍

Locomotive 001 prepares to depart from Lakeview freight yard with the Burma road freight service to Sligo-which will pick up wagons en route.

The Radio train returns….

In a joint operation between Bus Eireann and Irish rail we see the Executive train arrive at platform one behind 073 - as two PD type buses off load their passengers for an evening of fun on the train.

Fabulous a very busy Tara junction 

The blue cement pallet wagons are excellent can I ask where did you buy them, thanks 

Thanks Bob-they were kits from MIR-a pleasure to build nearly 20 years ago now.

How do you keep your tracks clean?

How do you control multiple trains - single or multiple controllers?

Track rubber and a track cleaning coach for the hard to reach areas. 
 

I use one single DCC controller
