Northern Ireland Units

 Many people dont realise there were Thumpers used in Northern Ireland.

Even though they looked a little different and were of the wider 5'3" gauge they are still true Thumpers.

In this section we hope to have articles about these units and hopefully give them as much publicity as the British rail units.
