Some 60 odd Irish medium format negs arrived yesterday to identify etc. Over 1200 Scottish slides from the 1980's-90' also landed as well and they also need identifying etc. So that,s Christmas and New Year sorted time-wise. (Madame probably has different ides!) Today. Sunset on the West Clare at Ennistymon 3 November 1960 2 views. Newry Edward Street, 24 August 1962. Sion Mills 24 August 1962.

While I think on these are the coaches which will be available in the Irish liveries ie.the actual models but in SR livery.

Mystery solved! I had an email last week from Hattons requesting the use of a J15 negative , I had an inkling it might have been the stock it was pulling rather than the locomotive. Unfortunately I have already purchased a rake of SR 6 wheelers for the S&DJR!

Not only are chocolate bars, biscuits and food generally are shooting up in price, manufacturers are shrinking the size of items to save money. Even I noticed the difference in the size of my muffins (not a euphemism , er but now I think on!) this morning when I lost one but it was under my knife.

First 2 Inverness Last 2 Stranraer Harbour. -
This negative arrived yesterday and after scanning turns out to be Glenties on the CDRJC after closure but before track lifting. I have guesstimated the date as CA 1952 but maybe up to couple of years earlier. Not many images around of the Glenties branch, its early closure and no doubt the pull of Barnesmore Gap, Donegal, Killybegs and Ballyshannon and their more frequent service attracted the photographers.
