Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Development of Turf-fired Locomotive.

asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will make a statement concerning the progress which is being made in developing a turf-fired locomotive by C.I.E.

I am informed by C.I.E. that work on the development of a locomotive capable of burning either turf or oil is proceeding. The board have been made aware of my concern that the development of a suitable prototype should be pressed ahead.
