Hi All Here is a crude but novel way to get a check flare as seen on the 3ft gauge West Clare Railway in Ireland. 38_270545_130000000.jpg Cheers Phil |

I've seen cuts like that on British Railway track in the 70s and 80s - but only in sidings. It should not happen on running lines. Judi R |

They have just got permission from their Highways Authority to introduce a speed limit passed the station they are now able to apply to the Irish equivalent of DfT for a level crossing, with protection to be decided IE. barriers Etc., once they have this it will be part of their mainline towards Kilkee. The Irish seem to take less of the big brother approach to heritage railways than happens here. Cheers Phil |
