Work on the RPSI's Southern rolling stock, Sunday 28th May 2006
A photo report with pictures by J McKeown.

The RPSI has been working recently to bring three "Cravens" coaches into traffic, recently acquired thanks to the kind co-operation of Iarnród Éireann.

No.186 stabled in Dublin. The next day the locomotive was moved to Whitehead, and No.4 returned to Dublin to run trains from there.
