Summary edit

Description
English: "North Coast Flyer" leaving York Road station, Belfast
In 1990, the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland had no working steam locomotives. Rather than cancel the now well established steam-hauled "Portrush Flyer", the RPSI opted to experiment with diesel haulage using one of Northern Ireland Railway's ex-CIE MV class diesel locomotives, renaming the train the "North Coast Flyer". MV 108 (ex-CIE 230) hauls RPSI vintage coaching stock out of York Road station, Belfast on its way to Portrush. Three "Flyers" were scheduled, but only two operated - the third was cancelled due to lack of demand.
