0 Garfield Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 There’s also a Bulleid open on static display at Dunsandle station, Co Galway, on the old Loughrea branch. Quote
0 jhb171achill Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 I had thought of getting a couple to the DCDR at one time, but money for transport was tight! Quote
0 decauville1126 Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Last time I was at Dromod there was one in the bushes of the old goods yard in the 'V' formed by the main line and the 3' gauge line. Quote
0 jhb171achill Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 I thought the DCDR had one. Not a corrugated one - unless it's arrived very recently indeed. There are, between Downpatrick & Whitehead, a couple of wooden ones of NCC origin. Quote
0 Noel Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 [ATTACH=CONFIG]28775[/ATTACH] Here's the one at Halfway Hi Des, please forgive my ignorance, but what or where is 'Halfway'? Thanks, Noel Halfway down the stairs! Quote
0 Weshty Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Hi Noel Halfway is about 8 miles from Cork City on the main Bandon road. Past Ballinhassig, and 5 mile before Inishannon. 5 miles after the Chetwynd viaduct Quote
0 Noel Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Hi Noel Halfway is about 8 miles from Cork City on the main Bandon road. Past Ballinhassig, and 5 mile before Inishannon. 5 miles after the Chetwynd viaduct Thanks Des. Are the wagons stored at some sort of heritage facility, museum, club, or in a public space. Noel Quote
0 Weshty Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Hi Noel, They're stored out in the open at the back of the Ramble Inn (which is closed the last time I was there). You can see them from the main road though. Quote
0 popeye Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Bullied open wagon at Dunsandle Co Galway. I don't know if it is still there but here is a picture. Quote
0 jhb171achill Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Red paint!!!!!!! Aaarrrrrgggghhhhh my eyes hurt..... Quote
0 Mayner Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Red paint!!!!!!! Aaarrrrrgggghhhhh my eyes hurt..... The black running gear looks even better . It might calm down once the paint starts to fade, Some friends had "BR Bauxite" specially formulated for a narrow gauge brake van in the UK. The van eventually faded from a salmon pink when freshly painted to a much darker shade Quote
0 jhb171achill Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Better than nothing. .....in a black'n'white photo! And this common obsession with entirely incorrect Hornby-compatible black chassis! I'm going to get my smelling salts. Quote
0 Junctionmad Posted October 9, 2017 Author Posted October 9, 2017 Thanks for the feedback lads , I'll arrange to visit one of these in the next month Quote
