Here are a few more shots of yesterdays special in Claremorris. The rare and probably never to be repeated sight of 3 mk3 sets in Claremorris made for very
orange photos!

Nice photos Burma Rd, I don't think there will ever be 3x Mk3 sets in Claremorris again, pity.

Ah,the first passenger working for an 071 out of Heuston all week..........It really is coming to the end now................Now,that cement you
saw..............................
I am more than certain that a few people living in the Cabra area may have thought at 18:48(would have been thru HHatch at 18:25ish 121x2) that a bomb had fallen on Cabra bank.By God,it definately was the place to be to hear an 071 roar its guts out.086 belted by Cabra old cement sidings having been signal checked to get across Glasnevin Jct with 9 bogie bulk cement wagons............ And other info....... 075 passed east thru Drumcondra at 16:25 for NorthWall with 10 laden timber wagons.It then as mentioned went light engine to Connolly MPD 083 passed South thru Kilbarrack at 17:11 with 16 empty cement wagons for NorthWall to work the Tullamore cement in the morning. 088 passed North thru Kilbarrack at 17:45 with 10 empty ore wagons for Tara Mines Regards, 071s forever |

082 did NW pilot at the wagon works for most of the day, 071 worked 9.20 Tara, 081 worked laden timber to Waterford, 086 did Tullamore cement, most interesting
working today was 076 on track panal from Portlaoise to NW, it returned with the empty Materials Train from the last 2nights work. 071class working PWD trains
will become the norm, small GMs are falling fast.
btw Gordy712 you had just gone 5mins when 088 arrived with the 9bogie bulks from Platin, thats the way of gricing.......... Regards h.gricer |
