thewanderer Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Evening all, All the pictures from my weekend in Mayo are now online at http://smu.gs/1iF5p6b Friday's Pictures are from Portarlington, Athlone, Claremorris, Roscommon, Castlerea, Manulla Jct. and Westport. Highlights include the 2800 Class DMU swap out from Ballina and 073 on the DFDS Ballina - Waterford Liner. Saturday was a wet and windy day but I managed to walk some of the Great Western Greenway in Westport town before taking a trip to Ballina via Manulla Jct. 082 was stabled next to the IWT liner and 220 and 086 were at the head of Liner and Timber trains at the Manulla end of the yard. Sunday's photos show the Timber train stabled at the very end of the Westport Quay line. 071 was stabled beside the station. The final pictures from the day are from Athlone of 22038 arriving with the 1335 Heuston - Westport. The Wanderer. Quote

jhb171achill Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 Tis indeed.... One of the most scenic railway routes ever built in Ireland. The greenway people have done a great job. I would recommend it to anyone. Quote
