DiveController Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Some very interesting older stock, Bandon tanks locos, green AEC railcars on the CBSCR, a double slip (not as uncommon as one would have believed), I think it was at Albert Quay about 8:41, old motor vehicles, trucks and a GN closed wagon on the CBSCR! Nostalgic little collection of video and photographs Thanks for posting that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorkyP Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 What a lovely collection of fillums and pics, left me with a real melancholy feeling tho....loved the bit with the horse drawn wagon, and the fella chasing cows off the track.!

NIR Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) 12 hours ago, DiveController said: a double slip (not as uncommon as one would have believed), I think it was at Albert Quay about 8:41 The classic place for one though, saving a point length in a cramped urban terminus. Immediately afterwards is the rock cutting/tunnel at the throat, I was fascinated by a photo of that in an early 70s Railway Magazine (or whatever that real railways magazine was called) in an article on Foynes, Fenit, etc. Edited September 28, 2019 by NIR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgeconna Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 2 Dics DVD set of the Wesk Cork Railway can be got here: http://www.modelvillage.ie/index.php/tickets/dvd-s/the-west-cork-railway Well worth the price, sit down with a Glass of Malt and try to fight the tears. The Old station area in Albert quay is going to get a 'Fantastic' new development. Looks like an awful location to live with the link road below https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/property/fast-track-planning-permission-being-sought-for-17-storey-apartment-tower-in-cork-city-943814.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiveController Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Wouldn't be so bad if the CBSCR 'model' railway was still outside your window, but alas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
