    Anyone working for CIE know what time the Steam train will be passing each way through Dunlaoghaire tomarrow.?

    I only see departure and arrival times from Malahide and Wicklow from the RPSI site.

    Cheers.

    It passed Bray as you posted on here; actually!

    186 was suffering from a bit of a leak somewhere and was looking dodgy early on in the day, hence the late running for much of the day. Happily her loco crew were able to tweak a few pipes and shovels and kept here going at full pelt throughout, even up the notorious Rathdrum bank, making up some of the lost time.

    As ever, a great day was had by all with two full trains on the day; Malahide to Wicklow and Wicklow to Arklow for the locals.

    Damn, missed it, I can normally hear a southbound train on the incline from Sandycove however Northbound trains are a lot quieter and only hear them as they pass the back garden.

    Lovely photo of 186 - you may consider copying it to the collection of pics on 'Train and Rail Systems', in the 'Irelands's Preserved Locomotives - Gallery' thread. All contributions welcome !!! :D
