With many 80-class DEMUs away on special workings for the Meath v Down GAA All-Ireland football final in Dublin, diesel locomotive haulage made a very rare appearance on passenger trains from Belfast to Londonderry (Waterside). Taking the now "mothballed" Lisburn - Knockmore - Antrim line, Northern Ireland Railways' 111 class No. 113 "Belfast & Co Down" leaves Lisburn with the 14.10 passenger service from Belfast (Central) to Waterside.
