The Railway Preservation Society of Ireland's Premier Branch Line railtour on 10th May 2025 involved three IE 071 class locomotives. No. 077 worked from Dublin Heuston to Waterford. No. 071 worked from Waterford to Limerick and No. 081 then headed the return to Heuston via Nenagh to Ballybrophy and on to Thurles. Here No. 081 is seen pulling out of the loop at Thurles after running around; passengers were allowed to stay on the railtour for this rare bit of track if they wished.
