The Republic of Ireland went live on Google Streetview today, so to celebrate, here's a shot of a 2700 (or 2750?) class railcar in Rosslare Harbour...

That's at least one 2700 class

I'd assume it's working with a second one.

Firstly, Sorry for digging up a fairly older thread - Just thaught it'd be better to continue with this one as apposed to bringing up another new one...

Was just looking around various areas in germany this evening - Wildenrath being one of them...and low and be hold, crossing a bridge on the test track...Heres one of Scotrails 380s undergoing testing...

Ah - Sorted the link out, heres the correct link!

 

[fgwrich]

Link hasn't worked as id hoped, so heres a screen grab instead - It's not street view as such, but its a photo that appears from streetview from a Bus Stop...

Only because nobody posted a 168

I know it is on Satellite Image, rather than StreetView, but I'm rather impressed they managed to catch the ten-odd times a year loco-hauled service to Weymouth heading southbound at Dorchester Junction. Pretty small odds on getting a photo of that with a random shot taken at any point in the year.

Can't see that getting to Cleethorpes.

There is the disappearing train at King's Lynn. Move forward along the road over the level crossing and it's no longer there, go forward one more and it comes back.

Ok at the top of the map / view there is a light blue bar - to the far right of that bar there is a button 'Link' click that and copy the address under 'Paste link in email or IM' Paste it on here!

HTH

The Streetview cars make multiple passes with the best shots being used. (I'm not sure how they decide which are the best shots)

Not exactly a train, but while looking at the bridge on Whistleberry road, Blantyre, I found this strange thing:

http://www.google.com/maps?ie=UTF8&...22&ll=55.790757,-4.075724&spn=0,0.010943&z=17

What the hell is that?

an Avian

Still Could be worse...

 

[Bittern]

I've been going to that bridge for years and the only birdies I've ever seen are Pigeons. Of course, I'm no bird spotter, but I know a bloody pigeon anywhere.

Still Could be worse...

A Corvid, to be precise. Most likely of the Corvus corone species.

I've been watching too many UFO documentaries again.
