Descrizione dettagliata

Dopo aver avviato un programma di ristrutturazione delle stazioni, migliorato il sistema di biglietteria e introdotto nuovi impianti di bordo e locomotive di manovra, nel 1969 le Ferrovie dell'Irlanda del Nord, ancora in fase embrionale, decisero di migliorare il servizio "Enterprise" Dublino-Belfast, sostituendo le automotrici diesel esistenti con un servizio trainato da locomotive. Con l'obiettivo di ridurre il tempo di percorrenza di 180 km a sole due ore, le locomotive NIR Classe 101 (DL) furono progettate per funzionare in configurazione push-pull, con un convoglio di 8 carrozze da 270 tonnellate di materiale rotabile BR Mk.2b, a una velocità massima di 138 km/h.

A Real Loco

This truly feels like my first ever real locomotive, my layout is currently getting treatment for shorts on the peco points and grubby lines. All my locos are shorting at the points and stalling on the lines, having to put Nail Polish on the points to stop it, but this little Hunslet isn't bothered, it pushes on and on. What superb sound too, I initially bought the DC version due to financial constraints, but got the Sound Decoder a month later. Superb performance all round and the detail is amazing, this is my first ever Accurascale Loco and it's my best, number 101 is now in transit to join 102. Well done Accurascale, I have had to go purchase three Hornby Seacows now, to convert into NIR Ballast Wagons, whilst I wait on the MK2s.

Memories of visiting Dublin

I remember seeing some of these locomotives in Connolly station whilst visiting Dublin many years ago and was very excited when Irish Railway Models announced their model of the class.
The model is excellent, runs beautifully and brings back memories of those visits to Dublin. I have some of the NIR coaches on order and can't wait for them to arrive so that I can run a representative train.
Highly recommended
