Brian\u2019s 20 years in Ireland\/class 201 numerical retrospective, part 10.<\/p>\n

During the last 20 years an awful lot has changed at Irish Rail.<\/p>\n

Here are three scenes never to be repeated and all featuring Irish Rail class 201 number 210\u2014one of ten class 201 locomotives now stored at Irish Rail’s Inchicore works.<\/p>\n

All were exposed on Fujichrome slide film using Nikon cameras. Details in the captions.<\/p>\n

A view from 1998, not long after I made my first visit to Ireland, locomotive 210 with a set of Cravens under the train shed at Heuston Station in Dublin. Both locomotive and train shed are covered in grime. This was before the shed was renovated and the station brightened up. Notice the old-style lamps on the front of the loco. I was working with the glint effect, catching the light of the setting sun on the Cravens and interior surfaces of the station.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This was 11 May 2000. 18 Years ago. Locomotive 210 was working \u00a0an up-Ammonia at Limerick Junction. The Ammonia traffic ended in 2002.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On 13 May 2005, 210 works a down Dublin-Cork train at Rathpeacon. Stored fertilizer wagons occupy the sidings at the left. Since this photo was made the sidings at Rathpeacon have been removed and the old wagons scrapped.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
