THE Railway Preservation Society of Ireland is eagerly awaiting the day its trains can return to the main line in both Northern Ireland and the Republic, with work taking place behind the scenes to ensure the locos and stock are ready to go.
The society told The RM that it hopes to restart main line running in Northern Ireland during September (dates to be announced) and at Whitehead a select band of volunteers was able to carry out essential maintenance prior to the site reopening to the public.
