thewanderer Posted October 25, 2018 Author Share Posted October 25, 2018 Evening all, Photos from this week, all from the Portlaoise area featuring the Belmond Grand Hibernian returning to Inchicore on a trial from Limerick and two days later on the final charter of the season from Limerick Jct. to Mallow and Heuston. The train stopped in Portlaoise for a short period of time with entertainment and refreshments provided in the car park. Plus the usual diet of MKIV's and 22000's passing through.

thewanderer Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 Evening all, Two updates to the website this evening with the last of the November pictures and the start of the December collection. Another year is nearly gone. Thursday 29th November 2018: Pictures from Heuston Station and the footbridge at Inchicore. Click https://goo.gl/suqzPo to view the November gallery. Saturday 1st December 2018: A brief visit to Ballybrophy to photo the 1200 Heuston - Cork and 1125 Cork- Heuston passing the station. Sunday 2nd December 2018: While wandering around Co. Clare a slight detour found me conveniently passing Moyasta on the way home. Not much appears to have changed since my last visit in 2016, with no progress made on the long mooted transport museum. Later in the day I stumbled upon former Dublin Bus vehicle RH11 outside a pub at Liscasey, Co. Clare. Click https://goo.gl/nkEADr to view the December gallery. Of course both galleries can be accessed from the home page at www.thewandererphotos.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
