Locomotive February 24, 1961, Public domain image
Summary
Going mad altogether today by adding two photos taken on 24 February...This one is of a new General Motors diesel locomotive on trial at Nesbitt Junction, near Enfield in Meath...Back on 4 January, the Pic of the Day was from 1961 and showed GM diesel locomotive B124 being unloaded from a ship at the North Wall in Dublin ( nlireland/6633962763/ ) . One of our Flickroonies, Flying Snail ( flyingsnail/ ) , requested: "when we get to the 24th of Feb could you upload the following of O'Dea's ref: 23/62, as I think it shows the same locos running bonnet first before it was discontinued for safety reasons following an accident!"..However, when I checked the photo, it turned out to be loco B126, not B124. Either way, here it is.....Date: Friday, 24 February 1961..NLI Ref.: ODEA 23/62 ( vtls000305312 )
