Formula One pit stop, ITG style. While the rest of the Downparick crew were busy shuttling the 450 class railcar back and forth on Lapland Express trains, four ITG volunteers set to work replacing four seals in 121 Class locomotive 124’s brake actuators in around 15 minutes. The Santa train hadn't even completed a round trip in that time.
If this looks like your idea of fun, then please consider volunteering, even a few days a year can make a big difference. You can find out more on how to apply here.
Even if you are not in a position to volunteer there are other to support our efforts, you can become a member here or donate (any amount appreciated, no amount is 'too small'). They're all great ways to help keep classic Irish diesel locomotives like 124 in action.
