    You’d likely have a siding for the council and there tar (as it would never have gone over to north esk im that scenario) and of course you would have had mixed trains like the youghal goods coming from Bantry or maybe even a dedicated oil train from Bantry (Whiddy Island)

    I like the idea of a Rationalised Albert Quay in the 70s with passenger traffic. Because the 1950s Albert quay cramped, yet complex

    In my mind, you might have had a GSR competing with a GNR combined with the DSER. Eventually theyd still end up combining into a CIE of sorts. Though the railway map would be impossible to predict, considering the economic position, structure, policy ect. of such a country would be much different. One thing is for sure, I’d imagine there would be a railway line running up the North West Imagine gsr grey donegal tanks….GNR 461 ect.

    Stationmasters house started (based on that of Waterfall Co.Cork) but is not finished. I also put in a few small bits like the sign ect.

    The DD’s will be held together by bale twine, the 29s will be fine, except for the fact there won’t be any floor left

    Planning progression. Hoping to get Owen O’Niell to help with the station building, which is going to be identical in shoe to drimoleague, Ballinhassig and Desert stations in west cork. Anyone know some fonts for the old AA yellow enamel road signs or the newer white cast County Council signs?
