The January 2023 gallery:
Tuesday 3rd January 2023:
We kick off the 2023 gallery with pictures from Nenagh, BNallybrophy, Portlaoise, Limerick Jct. and Limerick. The highlight of the day was 3ICR 22060 working the 1710 Limerick - Ballybrophy in place of the normal 2800 class set due to heavy loadings as the North Tipperary Rail Partnership had a day trip to Limerick from Nenagh.

Tuesday 31st January 2023:
22063 returned to service on the 1525 Portlaoise - Heuston today. The set has been out of service since April 9th 2021 for rebuilding with the new MTU Stage V powerpacks, plus ZF EcoWorld transmission and after extensive testing, re-entered service. I travelled on it from Portlaoise to Kildare and on arrival a nice surprise was seeing 073 in its retro Irish Rail livery on the XPO Liner which had a decent loading on it for once.
