Layout at Donegal Railway Heritage Centre

[jhb171achill]

A few from the CDR-inspired layout there, which includes an extensive model of Donegal station itself. 
 

I was up for the book launch of Airfixfan’s latest photo album book of the railways of the area. The Centre desperately needs financial support, so (while I’m not involved in it personally), I would still strongly recommend a visit. Also, order the book from the centre.

Now that is really nice.

Well worth a visit, fine layout of the station and lots of railway items on display

Excellent pictures jhb171achill.

I regularly watch Mark on "Donegal Dad" and follow the great work though his output. I hope to visit this summer.

Now joined by some more model material - including the very excellent "Past-Avenue" layout of this parish, most generously donated for display, and the collection of "0" gauge models of the CDR made by the late Sam Carse for his highly intricate CDRJC layout at his home in Dublin. I was privileged to see this in operation once, over 40 years ago now......... these have lately been gifted to the centre by David and Barry Carse.

The centre has amassed a monumental collection of images of the CDR and LLRS systems now. Some 250 of these will feature in the photo album lately prepared, and in final editing / printing now.
