I’m fully convinced that those irish freight diesels are immortal.

071 are +50 years old now. I wonder how many years they have again in them before they become uneconomic to service?

@@domesticterrorist483I would imagine that the 201s will be gone before the 071s.

I hope so. The 071's are so iconic, hope they will be around for many more years@@brianstafford98

Brilliant as always. In particular 084 on full power accelerating away from Claremorris with the horn blowing and a wave from the driver. Nice one 😂

Thanks Gerry, the drivers are used to me at this stage!

Fantastic Footage!😃. I wonder are there many of the modern signals which protected the N17 level crossings left between Athenry and Claremorris or were they uprooted when the level crossings and lights were taken down?.Didn't seem to see any in the vegetation clearance shots, maybe they weren't visible?.
@SouthernYard10 ай бұрын
Most of them are still there!

@@SouthernYard I presume they wouldn't be of any use now?.Probably new ones installed when the level crossings are being layed out again?.

Everything would need to be brand new, full rebuild required.
