Nice sound. Is there any of these 201's still remaining in this livery?

@EWS60008 I don't know, think there maybe still  the odd one.

Those Carraiges are B.R (British Rail) MK II. They were bought out of a scrap yard in england in the early 90s for a thousand pounds each. B.R taught that those irish are crazy as they are completly rotten with rust and were botched up and sprayed by C.I.E. I hope they have now replaced them as if they were to turn over nobody would stand a chance

The IE logo on 212 looks wonky... is it still the same does anyone know? I think the far side logo is ok.
