Very sad sight but then Translink are obsessed with trashing great trains as well as ruining stations with their obsessive lifting of passing loops .. Ballinderry, Crumlin and utterly destroying the picturesque Castlerock. ..

They have ruined the network

They want as much single track as possible .. it so confuses them knowing which track to use. Hence three stations lost their passing loops. Meanwhile the entire Belfast to Ballymena line, opened in 1848, was reduced from double track to single track over 20 years back as this single line policy is long term. First the section from Antrim to Ballymena, removing the Down line, moving all the signals to stand in the middle of the disused down track, later lifting it. Then they merrily switched the trains from Antrim to Belfast via Crumlin while they removed the double track from Antrim to Bleach Green. Then they put a new single track down to replace the double track Bleach Green to Antrim and made a big show of reopening the line which they closed. And banged on about the new shorter journey time to Antrim now. And thus they closed the Lisburn Antrim line as they like closing lines ... claiming that it will now take 30 million to reopen it. Finally opening a new passing loop at Killagan so trains can pass SOMEWHERE on the single line trail. 😕

Please tell me they preserved an 80s Thumper?? I know Downpatrick Railway got a 450 class - but there was vagueness for months about getting one of those beautiful 80 class engines. Any news? Are there any left, not scrapped that can be saved?

Obviously a hard beanie-hat area. Whoever slung the prime-mover did not work out the balance at all. The single chain at the generator was taking 90% + of the load.

Why don't they use gas axes like in the 1960's? It would save more metal & be maybe a little less dangerous. By the way, where's York Road?

James Braithwaite York Road Depot is in Belfast Northern Ireland. And now days you need a strong cutter to get through the strong and well built body of these trains

Terrible, like a snuff movie. Surely this and the others could have been preserved, I spent a LARGE portion of my life travelling on these and they were miles more comfortable than the Castle's
