It's brilliant to have this because enthusiast's home movies were generally silent and 35mm film taken with professional movie cameras is much sharper than standard 8mm shot by the railfans.
This is not to criticise in any way Tony Price or Joe St Leger who did marvellous work at great personal expense.
Great footage Bride's glen viaduct the curve at Tulla crossing and Carrickmines magical !
!!! Very nice, like !!!
Brilliant. I just couldn't help notice the milk churns on the platform at Carrickmines! Not the thing I associate with South Dublin!
Not today but that was 1960 Ireland with the old ways still an everyday occurrence
wow 😍
Was that the normal way of doing PW work? I do hope there was a lookout further down the line
Not certain of the practices back then but this was a film so may not represent the reality of 1960 PW practices
Done to order; movie director's requirements.
Health and safety may have been less rigid sixty five years ago, but never like this.
Does anybody know what movie this is?
I assume that it was made around the closure of the Harcourt Street line at the end of 1958. It took a couple of years to lift all eleven miles, starting at the Harcourt Street terminus but Carrickmines at about mp 9 could have been still extant in 1960, but by then all the A class would have been repainted in the green livery.
It might have been made when the line was still a public railway, as the off-peak service was not intensive.
As the second track was already lifted, I assume it was after closure.
Interesting 🤔 sound of the Crossley engine should give a fair idea of what the sole surviving class 28 Metrovick Co-bo locomotive D5705 should sound like when eventually it manages to run again 😊
Yes, and this sound should be a closer match to the class 28s compared to their Australian cousins.
Look forward to hearing D5705 in the future.
I don’t know if this movie has been released on DVD, but this looks like DVD quality.
Don’t think so, but clearly filmed in HD.
What is the title of the original film and where can I get it?
Johnny Nobody……it was available on a streaming site for a period.
sounds just like a WAGR X
I think they have the same power plant.
Exactly the same crossley engine.
As one who drove them I'm sorry to say that's not the sound of an A Class.
This was the A class sound pre 1970s
That one sounds like it’s engine is having a seizure, although I imagine this was common for the class.
Not altogether unlike a Deltic.
Noisy alright!
