    Maam Cross Connemara Railway Project continues at pace with an early summer opening date to be confirmed in due course. The volunteer’s erected a wooden fence today to improve the appearance at the entrance to the station, Some more 804 gravel was spread on the down platform and preparation was made for the arrival of on site WCs which will shortly be delivered to the station. In the last photo the section signal has been connected and can now be worked by pulling No3 lever in the signal cabin.

    Having been inspired by one of Tony Cooke’s photos on the IRRS slide show last night-I recreated the scene earlier on Tara junction….the photo showed a triple header of locomotives consisting of 2x141 coupled to an 001 heading to Northwall from Inchicore to form the evening departures to Westport (2x141s) and the Sligo (001) liner trains
