I decided to weather some 001 class locomotives 

007 & 056 were the first locomotives to be treated,giving them the all over oil effect as seen on some of the class during the late 1980s early 1990s,

Tara Junction is the highlight of my Friday nights!

You need to get yourself a hobby. Ever thought about taking up knitting? I'd highly recommend it.

It’s a busy evening under the floodlights at the Lakeview freight yard for the staff on the late shift with bagged, bulk cement and Guinness being loaded and unloaded by the forklift drivers.

Christ, it's like blind date, Noel. All we're missing is Cilla Black. I pick number 5, 007 with the Tara's. She sounds very nice.

I have to say that 007 is a looker. Should have named it Seamus Bond.

TJ would definitely attract crowds at an exhibition because there is so much prototypical action. I can't give it any higher praise.

A through the years era this Christmas on Tara junction,

From the 1970s Supertrain through to the 1990s,

001 hauling the Supertrain MK2ds pause at Tara junction to allow 080 hauling its 10 piece Mk2 a/b set,

087 has charge of the CIE Mk3 set as 048 disappears into the distance with a Cravens set.

Five minutes of fun on Tara junction,

Returning to 1987 with trains and buses of that period,We see a procession of BELL liners passing through the station and some passenger action. 
 

Enjoy👍

As 'Martin Brody' Roy Scheider in Jaws might have said "Your gonna need more track" to handle all that lovely stock. Superb as ever from Tara Junction
