Heuston-Killarney

[Noel]

Enjoyed travelling to Kerry this week by train. Down on a real train with an GM engine and CAF Mk4s, return by Rotem.

11:00 Dublin-Cork 4006 DVT the sharp end. You could catch a big fish with that hook.  Jaws be afraid, we've got a bigger train.

DVD connection to Mk4 CAF City Gold coach

Connection gubbins between Mk4 DVD and coach. Look mom, no-buffers. You couldn't get a sheet of paper between those corridor connectors, most unlike the 1960s daylight.

Waiting for return 07:44 Killarney-Heuston direct on Rotem roller skate to arrive

Was pleasantly surprised to discover a menu on the 07:44 and then this breakfast arrived. Well done Irish Rail, haven't been able to get this on an Irish train since the Mk3s went off the Cork city gold service years ago. Never had breakfast like this on the Cork train, well done Kerry!
