I'm more interested in Birr than Banagher,  but very interested in anything that remembers Offaly's lost railways.

Hi gph2000 , have you seen what looks like an old wagon in a field outside Birr, i passed it last week in a hurry, but will be there this week to photograph it

Indeed I have. I stopped to take a look at it, must be five years back. I took a quick look again just now on street view - it looks to be in a different position to when I saw it. I could have sworn it was closer to the Borrisokane end of the field end on to the road. But that could be just me mixing it up with others in the area. There is another in very good condition behind a house in Rochfortbridge, but you would need to be on a bus or in a truck to see it. There used to be one in a field outside Kilbeggan but I think it is gone now. The only other one I know is belonging to the Fryday family in a field between Cadamstown and Ballyboy. Its been there more 30 than years, I left school in '86, and they acquired it while I was in school.
