Those 6101s on drogheda were awesome, I didn't really enjoy the 2600s found them uncomfortable and noisy as hell, I'd stay waiting at connolly for a 6101 instead lol
Great vid. Any idea where the empty cement trains at 12.00 came from? I'm trying to understand why the longer train with the 141 propelling it back to take the direct curve would not have simply taken the curve before reaching Limerick Junction? Crew change maybe? Or did it not come from the Dublin direction?
It is an interesting movement. I could have come from south of Limerick Junction but not sure. Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video Gerry
my childhood is in these videos
limerick junction is near unrecognisable today compared to the videos of the past
Great Scenes from those Years Gerry!😃.
Trains in Ireland . Yes and thanks for watching
Wonderful scenes at Limerick Junction around 10-15 mins. Pity so much of that traffic has been lost

Well I have no idea why it didn't take the direct curve, as you can see 2 cement trains heading for Limerick.

Is the curve from the main line to limerick still there
Yes the direct curve is still and used by some trains.

There plans to bring back Freight trains.
Hi Gerry, what is and where is the train featured at approx 19mins hauled by a 121/141? Is on the Ennis -Athenry section?
