Super sequence of my all-time favourite engine class - many thanks! I also thought the sound quality was excellent.

@pjdscott Cheers, I must admit I only have a home made microphone, but it indeed picks up the sound quite well!

I think thats an Irish caboose behind the locomotive on the 2nd train

[Eiretrains]

@MrJacMac1986 That's right, they are the current type of guards' vans on Irish Rail, generally used for engineering work only.

Great stuff. Hard to beat the sound of the old 071s moving off

[Eiretrains]

Thanks guys, it was filmed in September 2010. Glad you like the sounds, I was surprised how well they were as I didn't have any sound protection fitted to the camera.

Poor old 082 looks like it got a right going over from the Graffiti artists!

When did you film it? Great work.
