Great video locomotive

Sandra Doyle is absolutely beautiful!!!!

Thank you from 🇬🇧. Lovely vid of men who knew xactly wot they were doing. Respected n trusted one another & no nonsense got in the way of earning a living. Nice to see ol Mr Bulleids coaching stock & triangulated u/frame goods wagons at work. His legacy left over from his time as C. M. E. @ Inchicore in the 50’s.

John Collins was a gent. Used to let me ride in the cab after school, up and down the Cobh road. Happy days. Although he did talk me out of becoming a driver 😊

How many of these lines have been or still could be used as greenways? At least the route would be preserved if ever the need for rail arises again.

What happened to all the magnesite wagons since they were no longer to be used??

Air plane old video but gold ✨️ 👌

What warm memories. My Grandfather was a guard on a Ballast train. And I have great memories in the cab, early 80s, even being in the rear cab by myself when it was in motion. Thanks for sharing the video.

I worked in Quigley Magnesite Ballinacourty, when a train came from Bennetts Bridge Kilkenny, 5 mornings a week with stone, and a train also each evening, for Cork with Magnesite. Good old memories.

I traveled Rosslare harbour to Tipperary in the 1960’s and the beginning of the 70’s as a child from London going on holiday to visit my Grandfather’s farm in Bansha, the train used to break into a gallop with a roaring noise coming from underneath the coach, then there would be a brake application,as far as I can remember this was the type of running for the whole journey to Tipperary, the Cravens coach stunk of beeswax, very heavily varnished woodwork, milk white toilet windows, sometimes the train would stop in the middle of nowhere and then a young labourer type would clamber down from the train with a suitcase and clamber up an embankment across a field, pre arranged with the guard no doubt

Amazing to see this massive heavy lump of a loco, slowly and carefully creeping through the busy Cork streets.

Great video Tommy. Good man 😊

i never knew they flew to portgual back then

Oh yeah this brings me back to the days when all I really wanted was to live beside a railway. Amazing filming and the pair look great in the shiny Black and Tan livery awesome sounds headphones highly recommended !!

The snackbar is now open and is located in the middle of the train serving teas coffeess sandwiches and snacks

Nice

It must be an absolute privilege to drive these. Can any driver opt to drive these or is a whole different category/license for these? I’d pay to drive one haha So rare seeing both connected

Great video Tom

Great to see your still at it my friend.

24th July 1982,a very busy day on the Ballinacourty line.Not only the IRRS special,but also the Quigley magnesite staff outing.Tony Price was also busy filming the movements, recorded elsewhere on KZbin.

Great footage. The part where the train is in the curved cut through between the buildings brought back memories. I used to enjoy walking through it, stepping on the sleepers, holding my granddads hand. He was John Roche and was an engine cleaner at the Glanmire road shed. God rest him.

Dreadful noise accompaniment ruins video please delete. Better without.

Incredible footage. This country has been destroyed by Globalisation. God help us if the tech sector leaves.

Nice 😊 I used to go there with my dad in the early 80s to watch the trains ❤

just having a video camera in the 1980s already makes you a legend! great video!

Nice vid was this unit 2610 + 2613

now adays that would never happen letting grankids in the cab pity cause it makes great memory

The sound chip sounds fantastic

Very good video

Any chance Tom Ryan John Crowley on foil thank you if you could come up with something

Great footage, I enjoyed watching the video.

Irish Rail Class 2600, Arrow, 1994 & 2024, 30 Years Anniversary ☘️🇮🇪😊

They did a brilliant job bringing the units back to their former glory! I just hope they do the same to one of the 201s for their 30th anniversary this year.

Fabulous layout and models.

Lovely Tom

Fair dues Tom, that's lovely.

Excellent video by Tom Ryan always an expert with the movie camera.

Great video. Brings back old memories back in the 80's , every day during the school holidays hanging out the window beside the engine , and making a ten journey ticket last about 6 months 😂😂

Great video! Nice touch welcoming the two new staffers at the end!

Brilliant video. Thanks for posting Tom. God bless you.

Great video Tom. Living 65 miles to the north, I am not fully versed in Cork's traffic management. While I love the infrastructure, would it not have been better for the 207 and 208 to continue to serve the bus station?

Lovely video Tom, it really is an iconic locomotive and my favourite.

What size is your model railway. It looks good.

The train is never late it's the passengers are early. Great set.
