    078 on the Waterford to Ballina DFDS liner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,178 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    078 sounds great since it came back, it's the closest 071 to 082 in sound.

    083 & 077 on the Taras.

    One of the tara's was out of it's usual paths today. Caught the end of an empty working at Howth Junction at 16:20, only saw the last few wagons and could not see if it was 077 or 083.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 426 ✭✭metrovick001


    That would have been 083 then as 077 was on the empty before that passing Gormonston around 1440.

    This time last year 077 was on tara links aswell just after coming back from overhaul. The slate grey livery is in service a year already. How time flies.

    Inchicore receiving attention was the last I heard.

    Was that from the liner it failed on some months back?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 919 ✭✭✭n0brain3r


    I haven't seen her since. I think at the time it was suggested she may have damaged her traction motors with the wheel slip climbing out in North Wall.
