TAR 22 EP 11 (Belfast) "Beacon of Hope"
kshel:
Hi guys,
Long time lurker and decided to register to confirm a few things about the upcoming leg as I'm Scottish & used to Live in Glasgow Edinurgh etc..
It is indeed a Scotrail train.. of the first two shots from the preview, The train was a First scotrail train so guessing they had to go elsewhere in Scotland (my guess would be Glasgow into Queen Street Station, and then on to Stranraear using the Glasgow - Ayr Line from Central Station - there is another Ferry port at Troon but the route is closed at xmas time I think ), and I will cry if they go to Glasgow and on that train line cos they were so damn close to me I could have spat on them..) cos they wouldn't have got a train to Edinburgh airport, and I was also just about to tell you that the street the roller moms were walking along was still in Edinburgh, and very near the pitstop, but you already worked that out! If I can be of help, let me know!
Mattjimf:
:hello2: Welcome to the site, shame you missed the main excitement of the Edinburgh leg last week, we'll probably have to wait until season 39 until they come back to Scotland again.
kshel:
Yep, good old Season 3!
Was studying for an interview last week, so I opted to stay off here so I could concentrate on it.. dunno why I didn't think to come on here at the weekend though!

Mattjim's Skateboard park where they are doing the spray painting is right across the street from the Titanic Building: Streetview link

Just for sharing something that I visited which reminds me of the Titanic dry docks in Belfast. The whole ship (on hydraulic jacks for sinking), Belfast shipyard, Southampton docks, interiors and everything were recreated at the film studios in Rosarito, Mexico back in 1996-97 for the filming of the famous movie with Leo DiCaprio which was completely shot in Mexico. I personally took a trip back then and visited all the sets. The photo shows the ship at its maximum sinking capability at the studios' back lot (back Pacific Ocean :-)) before it was dismantled for shooting other films. Let TAR know they didn't have to go all the way across the pond! Greetings to all my Irish friends!
