Irish Rail 201 in Fresh Paint

Irish Rail’s EMD-built class 201 diesels made their debut in 1994—30 years ago.

On the evening of 27 April 2006, a few miles from the top of Ballybrophy bank, I made this Fujichrome color slide of the class leader wearing a fresh coat of paint as it raced download from Dublin to Cork.

Exposed on Fujichrome Sensia II (100 ISO) using a Contax G2 rangefinder with 45mm Zeiss lens.
