Howdy,

A few shots from today taken in Cush and Kildare station and its surrounding area.
The most excitement of the day was 080 on the laden DFDS ex Waterford and the sole remaining orange livered 201,214,on a rather empty Ex Ballina liner.It ran unusually in the early path today due to engineering works on the Athlone-Westport line.Also worth photographing was the 09:15 ex Galway,232 and Mk3s,which is soon due to go over to railcars.

Hope you enjoy.
080 passes Cush with the 07:50 Waterford-Ballina liner.
