    Per the article at wikipedia on the GWR 6000 Class: Following the death of King George V in 1936, No. 6029 ‘King Stephen’ was renamed ‘King Edward VIII’ after his successor; and following the abdication of the latter in the same year, No. 6028 was renamed ‘King George VI’ after the new King. Also: The entire class was withdrawn in 1962 and replaced by the Western Region's short-lived diesel hydraulic Western Class locomotives.

    Ulster Transport Authority roundel on the tender. This class of locomotive was built in the mid 1930s by the LMS for the Northern Counties Committee for the Belfast to Derry lines. It has the table catcher on the cab side which enable the trains to enter a single track section at 60mph thus eliminating the need to slow at a signal cabin to exchange tokens. The locomotives were passed to the Ulster Transport Authority in 1948 when most of the railways in the UK were nationalised. Both the W class and WT tank engine derivatives were used on the Enterprise express as far as Dundalk where a CIE diesel replaced it for the onward journey to Dublin.

    beachcomber australia I have an iMac and don't normally have a problem. It's usually Flickr itself that has the problem. I use Safari as my search engine. Have you tried another search engine?

    Streetview They're called "The Bungalows" on the OSI 25".
  • Suck Diesel said:
    According to Wikipedia a bungalow, an Indian word, means: Built in the Bengali style "A bungalow is a small house or cottage that is either single-storey or has a second storey built into a sloping roof (usually with dormer windows) and may be surrounded by wide verandas ....and was popular with the Arts and Crafts movement."
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    According to the Newry Reporter of May 31st. 1897, the bungalows were just nearing completion. They were being built by the London and North-Western Company.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    The NIAH calls them "single storey with attic" in its entries (1, 2, 3, 4)
  • Suck Diesel said:
    NIAH www.buildingsofireland.ie/buildings-search/building/13831... says 1895, perhaps that was the start date. Built as holiday homes. They appear unoccupied, as yet. Must have been a new design for us at that time to merit a photo. However, nowadays the bungalow is the most common type to be seen in the Irish countryside, particularly since the "Tiger" days.. And I don't mean a Bengal tiger.
