Irish Rail 071 Class Tara/Cement trains - Rush Lusk 

Thx Joseph, glad you liked it.

your welcome man

Thx Tony, yeah they looked strange nowadays with the ICR/29000s being 4-car sets, the 2600/2800s are all split up now working WRC/Nenagh and Ballina branches.

Thx. the 071s are great.

Thx Seán, in 2008/9 I spent a lot of time shooting the northern line just to get the ordinary midday Taras, but I very rarely got cement and it was always a bonus. I recorded 2800s out of boredom but looking back I'm glad I bothered now that they're gone from Dublin!

Thx Stephen, was waiting for the usual Tara and the cement turned up so I was lucky to have been standing there, notice how the wagons 'bounce' over the bump too! The footbridge I shot from is gone now and replaced by one of the taller ones so you may need steps!

Jesus you were lucky there, and just looking at the video now I can just about see them bouncing away, the Cravens are known to do that as well. And why did they get rid of the old footbridge?

irish rail trains I was almost caught out with the southbound Tara too, I had camera setup on footbridge for the 13:20 Enterprise, heard the announcement and waited, only for me to hear an 071 from behind, I swung the camera around and what you see is literally what I got! The footbridge was one of the old Victorian ones they took from another station, it had no lifts so it was replaced like all the others on the northern line.
