Iarnród Éireann - Part Five

[@cg9876]

At around 9:30 I done that exact trip up front in the cab, I was only a kid and the driver asked me if I wanted to come up front and take that small trip to Cobh for the turn around. Never forget it 😍

Splendid run-round, i adore that

[@vicsams4431]

Great video. Capturing steam heat Cravens and 141s to Cobh etc.

[@micheldenis6362]

Fantastic footage, thank you ...ending with a wonderful running round....à "must" ....😀😊

I'm so glad you liked it! I miss those visits to Eire back when there was so much variety. I'm glad I had the sense to record as much as I could!

Some great old Desial train footage!

[@RYNT1157]

Fantastic footage a lot of history there.

Another Cork gem John , know one or two faces there . It could be me getting on 170 at Cork , the putting of the grub bag in the back cab for Kerry and the dustcoat looks familiar. It's Denis Murphy on 166 in Cobh at the end.

I was going to post this in your facebook page abd ask you did it bring back any memories !

[@MetroVick]

Fantastic footage. Thanks for posting it up.

I’d love a steam heated Craven right now rather then this cold EV bus I’m on ⛄️

How things have changed, IE Continue to try to change this Lovely Victorian Station into a Modern eyesore with glass Panels and other modern rubbish ...Thanks for sharing the Videos. Good Days indeed!

[@Johndeereman2k11]

Outstanding footage!!

It's strange how the points for the run around were not controlled from the signal cabin

[@vicsams4431]

They might be "released" by the signalbox.

Still can never understand re Killarney (a stub off the main line to Tralee) why that anomaly hasnt been previously sorted out. Such would reduce all that needing to shunt back and forth, each time (Killarney to Tralee and vice versa)...thus saving time and fuel..

[@vicsams4431]

Not really shunting, in railway operations sense, just a reversal. True when loco hauled, even more true with karts (DMUs) with a cab at both ends, and just walk through the train to change ends. Still far cheaper than buying the land to relocate the station. The gradient out of Killarney to Tralee is somewhat steep to locate a station on.
