Web Summit Special. Had to send a second loco to Midleton to haul it out. It used the Craven set that was on the Emerald Isle Express. I have no idea who ran it though.

How many times has 217 been sent to Midleton as the shunt loco over the years? It's the most used loco for that task. Does it just happen to be around Cork as the standby loco all the time or something. It's either fresh off are ready to back on a Mk4 set with it's knuckle coupler raised and buffers pushed back.
