    Actually in Sainleonards a mile or so from Ballycullane. Also time has not been kind to it. No longer in use but still in situ.

    Great collection.
  5. Wexford70
    Stupid me! Need stronger coffee.

    Where is the talk happening?
  7. Wexford70
    Can you remember which volume? Local gossip in Wexford was so much drink had been consumed on the way down many never made it to the opera

    I think it was one of the times they ran an opera special for the Wexford Opera Festival for corporate ticket holders. https://www.facebook.com/groups/573173142789869/permalink/780378232069358/

    William Robinson and the track circuit. Version 1.0. 2022-08-20.pages I think they used a low voltage (9-12v) where the connection was made by the wheels of the train. The indicators would be moved by the voltage to indicate a train within the section of track.

    The crane from the Leeds manufacturer dating from circa the 1860s when Ferns Station was opened in Co Wexford, has now been fully restored and placed on the platform in Kilmeaden. Sponsored by the Heritage Council, the work was undertaken by Rock Forking in Co Cavan. www.rockforgingironcrafts.com

    Quite possibly, unsure if it is railway related but was in a collection of mixed items including railway pieces.

    Again, any idea what this slightly unusual key was used for? No markings this time. Might not even be railway.

    What would the side bar be used for? Other carriage keys I have seen only had the end rectangular peg.

    Hi all, Can I ask your assistance to identify this type.of.key? It is stamped GSWR. Is for a point lever lock or a level crossing gate perhaps?

    How long did they remain in service?

    Hi folks, Is the first carriage after the loco on this Waterford to Dublin train in 1981 a TPO? Photo by Frank Geraghty on Flickr

    Sorry to hear of his passing. Enjoyed his company and stories. Bought many a book from him over the last while. He had a real passion for railways. Am sorry I cannot make the funeral today. May he rest in peace.

    Hi folks, Has anyone seen any plans of the proposed route of Waterford Wexford Railway Co to Ballyhack? I know only the Wexford to Rosslare section was built but would have been able to find any further details of the proposed route of the main section. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukla/Vict/27-28/216/pdfs/ukla_18640216_en.pdf

    Some browsers in privacy mode won't accept CAPTHCA. He should try another browser and see if it makes a difference.

    Nice Park Royal in what looks like dark green, Dun Laoghaire 1959 from Facebook

    Thanks for this level of detail. Do any of these survive?
