Rob Posted January 10, 2022 Author Posted January 10, 2022 Always nice to see retro liveried 071 at close quarters around North Wall this Monday afternoon. Mix of modern IÉ logo on old livery. 4 2 Quote
skinner75 Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Oh no, no no no - that modern logo on the front of 071 looks terrible! Totally ruins the 'retro' livery 4 1 Quote

Mind you, if one were to be pedantic, many other aspects of that livery are also incorrect, from the orange floor of the gangways, to the shade of orange, to the font of the numerals and lack of black shading! 2 1 Quote

Rob Posted July 21, 2022 Author Posted July 21, 2022 220 in North Wall this Thursday evening, 21/7/22 involved in shunting action splitting the liner formation before heading off. 'Sea Cube' 40ft is a rare sight too- haven't seen it up close before. 9 2 Quote

Сначала отодвигаем набор контейнеров под мост в сторону улицы Шериф. Потом взял два пустых ( 30234 и 30253 ) оставив их перед набором для крепления. 216 пробежал вокруг двух пустых квартир, прежде чем оттолкнуть их назад, чтобы соединиться с остальной частью съемочной площадки, а затем направился по Александра-роуд в Дублинский порт. Я думаю, что количество прицепленных вагонов достигло 24 [позже исправлено до 20 ] — один из самых длинных, которые я видел за последнее время. Отличный вечер What time can you see container trains on Alexandra road? Quote

Heading down between 9 and 10pm, shunting and loading generally takes about an hour.. can be later depending on the terminal, Thursday is normally busy so they train heads down for 11pm then 3 Quote

murphaph Posted August 18, 2022 Posted August 18, 2022 I wonder were those SuperValu sausages I ate in Tenerife shipped in one of those. Seems reasonably likely! I actually thought Containerships had gone bust long ago until visiting Tenerife where I saw loads of them. I never see them in Germany. 1 Quote

Также быстрое движение с въездом 077 . it's tara at 14:05? 077 was also with a tara? Judging by the lighting, I can suggest that it was taken closer to the morning Quote
