- Cab Run Connolly to Sligo Loco No 074 GM. Enhanced Picture Quality. Sorry about the crew chit chat in the cab between Mullingar and Sligo. Hope you enjoy this full cab run.
The crew chit chat is what makes these videos!!!!!!!! It's nice to hear people happy and having a bit of banter and craic! I think it's against the rules now!
Eire of the 90's. A country that doesn't exist anymore. Great video, passed some places where I walked and grew up (Ashtown). Nice to see the perspective from the cab, always loved hearing and seeing the 071s roar past, always got a wave from the drivers.
Very nice video :)
There's nothing that brings more nostalgia than the sound of these 071's I grew up hearing go by me in the 90's in Leixlip. Could hear them coming for miles at nighttime when they were doing the freight runs. Still can hear some pass by my job in Limerick at times. Funny to see on video what Leixlip Confey looked like in 1998 with the platform inbetween Cope bridge and only a single track - only blurry memories remain! Love the video's cheers Gerry!
Another excellent video Gerry, thank you.
That was only a quarter of a century ago and although there was some on-track litter, there were very few graffiti.
The trackwork in an around Maynooth station seemed to be especially decrepit though CWR would be laid soon after, and of course doubling between Maynooth and Clonsilla would also follow.
When I go up the Roxboro Road on my way to work some mornings, I can hear the Limerick Station pilot (074?) idling with intent and I hope the 071s reach the half century in 2026.
Another fabulous video , thanks for posting it here. Cheers
Very good video
