Don't get too excited

Until Irish Rail put something in writing it doesn't exist

Any organisation that uses Facebook as it's public face and then makes it private is dumb. I can't read that link.

Not a Facebooker myself so availed of the opportunity to look when someone else had Facebook open - appreciate this may not always be possible - but it's one way around it.

"right lads, all ye have to do is raise the money for mini CTC, total LC automation and railcar heavy overhauls and ye can have as many 2700s as ye want. Oh and ye'll need a gang to paint the Barrow bridge yellow, for safety and all that. Oh and BE will be staying on the route."

Maybe Iarnród Éireann could con them into purchasing a few MK3's and a number of old 071 class locos.

All joking aside I admire the work of Tanya Fenelon to get this line reopened. Unlike the NRP/WOT she has no support from any TD/minister. Plus she does look a lot more attractive than the people who head other groups trying to save rail lines.
