    If 85 is on form, you'll be in for a treat.

    A good illustration of just how "soft" a day it was on the Sunday. That last shot, is that the Banteer departure?

    We took shelter in the bar car and got wet on the inside. :)

    You have my mate Kevin in the pic. :) I'd also gone the long way round to get a pic from the "right side of the fence" only to find the stewards letting people off the end of the platform.

    DSC06293.JPG Sure it's Ireland (and Cork especially)...much better than a couple of years back when people used wander all over the running lines... I tend to stick to the rules myself usually. At least I had this vantage point all to myself!

    You shouldn't be. :)
    We used two sets, the NIR Mk.2 set and the IE Cravens set. The Cravens has the far better bar car because as well as the inevitable Guinness, a range of Irish craft ales was available. The O'Hara's Pale Ale was superb.
    The English guy who asked for a bottle of GK IPA was booed. :)

    I'm not surprised, people like that should not be out.

    The excitement of 85's dash from Dublin to Cork had some people on the edge of their seat with anticipation. :)

    How did you find the Cravens comfort wise? There seems to have been a lot of work put into them and they looked superb

    Not too bad but as I was stood at a window for most of the time it's hard to give a proper judgement. I certainly heard no complaints from others.

    That looks very like Thunderbird Frank if anyone else remembers.
