Afternoon folks,

Two updates to the website this afternoon.

* Pelletstown - opened Sunday 26th September 2021. Pelletstown Station is situated between Ashtown and Broombridge stations on the Dublin to Maynooth/M3 Parkway line. It will serve the existing community of Ashington as well as the new community at Royal Canal Park, with a journey time of as little as 12 minutes from the city centre, served by 94 trains daily in total (weekdays) and is the 145th station on the Iarnród Éireann network.

A few pictures from Broombridge start the day off. After visiting the new Pelletstown Station, it was a trip to Hazelhatch and Monasterevin to catch 081 working the Sperry Train from North Wall to Portlaoise. The Sperry Train currently contains the RPSI Generating Steam Van 3173 as the IE former GSV 3187 is unavailable. Click https://bit.ly/3CLJiLA to view.

Both galleries can be accessed on the home page at www.thewandererphotos.com

Hopefully earns some cash for the RPSI or some in kind payment from the CIE works?
