    Nice pictures. Could anyone advise of the current location and status of the surviving Hunslet, which I understand is being (or has been) cometically restored prior to a transfer to Cultra? Thanks

    NIR 102 'Falcon' was transferred to Cultra along with CIE B113 early on the morning of Sunday 21st January.

    Ownership of 102 has now been transferred from the RPSI to the UFTM. I think I'm right in saying that ownership of B113 had already been transferred from CIE/IR to the UFTM when the loco was brought north.

    I just about remember the Hunslets running. It's a pity one couldn't have went to Downpatrick.
