Where is this?

Question

Posted

A nice photo of J26 559 from 'Ingy the Wingy' on Flickr, but it's undated (probably 1950s) and has no location.

Does anyone recognise the place from the background? Is that a covered coaling stage immediately behind the loco? Piles of ash in the foreground also suggest a loco depot.

559

I've trawled through a load of photos of Broadstone and I can't match the location or buildings. 

I had a look at Grand Canal St which has some buildings in the right sort of style but I can't match it. 

To me it doesn't look right for Cork, Limerick or Inchicore.

A quick look at Sallypark wasn't convincing, nor Mullingar or Thurles. 

That's not to say it's definitely none of those, but I haven't yet found a match to the buildings.

Could it be somewhere at North Wall?
