We can but hope that the welcome preservation of a 450 Class set in Downpatrick doesn't mean that the prospects have worsened for the survival of an 80 Class, once NIR retire their Sandite set. Having served NIR well since the mid-1970s, the class is definitely a worthy candidate, if ever there was one!
Donations towards the preservation of the set very welcome! And if anyone wants to take a photo of the appeal leaflet with their models, drop us a line!
