    Just heard this story that dealers get on the train and flush bags of drugs down the shítter at a determined area for other dealers to come and pick them up,to sell them on. Has anyone else heard this tale?.............

    Can't be done anymore here, all the new trains have retention tanks under the coaches rather than spewing it on the track.

    All modern trains now have a built in sewage tank that are pumped out

    When was the last time you saw sh*t on the tracks.

    Would that not be really risky?

    Would there not be a chance that the train is going to run over the drugs?

    which reminds me not 2 years ago that wasnt the case: seeing a giant lump of poo sitting on the track at the carlow platform still haunts me to this day.

    I know they used to chuck drugs out the windows of train in Athlone, at he junction of the Westport and Galway lines. They cant do that anymore because the windows dont open.

    That's right. All the orange trains (Cravens, Mk2s, Mk3s, laminates etc) didn't store the waste but the Mk4s and modern railcars all do. Not sure about the 2600s or Enterprise sets though.

    Why can't they just hand the drugs to each other?

    That was me. I had a danger dump one night on the way home from the boozer. It's a bit like a danger w@nk except, the stakes are much higher.
