An hour later no. 130 prepares to depart from Limerick with what would normally have been A428, the 1200 Mk3 push-pull shuttle to Limerick Junction (15/07/1994)
However, due to the heavy Friday passenger loadings, A428 was diverted round the avoiding line at Limerick Junction and ran directly to Dublin. This is the novel scene as no. 130 and its three-coach train departed Thures with what I've recorded as the 1200 Limerick - Heuston relief (15/07/1994)
First-built '071' Class loco no 071 is pictured on arrival at Westport later that afternoon with A806, the 1300 from Dublin Heuston (15/07/1994)
