  1. One preserved set (458 set, I think) is in use on the Downpatrick and County Down Railway.
  2. GSWR 36 is still in existence, in the entrance lobby of Kent Station, Cork.
  3. My first flight was rear facing in a Trident to LHR. The front row faced backwards. Great fun for 14 year old me!
  4. No. 7 is definitely GNRI. Most likely an A or AL class. The roof in the right background was unique to the concrete roundhouses at Portadown and Clones.
  5. 621 ZO (CIE D621) was an AN68 Atlantean with Van Hool McArdle bodywork. Originally based at Clontarf depot and used on my local bus route.
  6. Alexandra Road is still in regular weekday use for the Tara Mines ore trains, 2-3 each way per day. These are the brown bogie tipplers in the pictures above.
  7. Definitely T&D. 4 of the locos were used later on the Cavan & Leitrim Railway.
  8. AN Other was used as a filler if one of the regular players was doubtful to start.
  9. A.N. Other had a remarkable career in Irish rugby judging by how many early team sheets he gets mentioned in. Surprisingly, he never scored.
  10. +1 for Wembley Central. When someone decides to build a shopping center where once there was no more than a bridge it’s doomed to failure. See the medeieval London Bridge for example.
  11. You’re right, I’d forgotten about 323 saloons, and the second car on lower deck is not the same as the first one on top. I must try harder, lol.
  12. First car on top and the second on the lower deck look like Mazda 323’s. Is the third one on the top deck a Mark 4 Cortina? The rest seem to be Polska Fiats. I should have recognized the 125P badge in the first photo.
