4 R M C views at Bantry Town on 13 April 1955. I think the Bandon Tank is 470 as I have other views showing the patch along the bottom of the Tank side. CB&SC 1955-04-13 Bantry 41 RMC26052 RMC 83232.

Hopefully the pages are in the correct order.

As mentioned yesterday in the topic on Working Timetables, last night I attempted to photograph the GNRI 1 July 1917 WTT, however the photography has to be done in natural light otherwise you will get a large shadow across the image from the camera etc.. This morning I have managed to do the Dundalk to Carrickmacross, Cootehill Bundoran & Omagh section which hopefully is shown below and is readable. The double pages are scanned on their sides to make the image larger. If anyone wants them as portrait rather than landscape I hopefully can send them via a PM. I have also copied the 'contents' page to show how the GNRI broke the lines into sections i.e. Portafown -Belfast and Dublin - Portadown. PM me if you would like a copy of a section.

I have a bound volume of the GNRI Working Timetables for the periods commencing 1 July 1917 and 1 October 1917. I thought I could scan the Bundoran WTT for that period, however it is incorporated in the line plus branches Dundalk to Omagh so is spread over 22 pages! I have thought about scanning the whole bound book several times over the last 20 years but unfortunately 'can'tbearsedstosis' always strikes. I could photograph the pages; here is a sample. It will take some time so possibly a project for the now dark nights when there nowt on the Telly and definitely when Madame is away. I could start tonight then!!

After consultation with the Household Authority in view of the weather forecast for this weekend the trip to the Ffestiniog Gala was called off and cancelled at 2am on Tuesday. An exciting alternative was then proposed that one should plaster up some holes in the living room wall where a radiator was removed a couple of years ago. However how about uploading a few more images!. These are from the early / mid 1960's. CIE 1967 CA Killarney 25j+092. CIE 1967 CA Killarney 25j+088. CIE 1967 ca Waterford 25j+077.

I'm off to the Ffestiniog Gala on Thursday for 5 days so, as Madame has gone off to Beamish with our youngest daughter and year old twin grandchildren today; and I have done my chores, I will upload some more Casserley negs from 1955. I am supposed to be plastering in the kitchen however as it was ca 1978 the last time I got plastered I seem to have lost the knack! Claremorris to Ballina.
