Great video mate. The 071 is without doubt the most beautiful diesel locomotive ever built and to top it all off the noises it makes are brilliant. Some of them sound like their on their knees with the loads they're pulling and its great oh and also when they're pulling out going through gears they make a great thuding sound with a real high pitched whir. Top class brings back great childhood memories of the freight trains coming up from the docks every 15 mins. at night going down the country
I just enjoyed watching vid of yours & my personal fave, would have to be the ole orange irish trains, coz there's something magical about been on one & sticking your head out the window. (When no other train is coming on the other track) Cheers for the memory...
They should go back to using more freight trains they have loads of 201 class just sitting up in inchicore since railcars do most off the passenger work now
