Irishswissernie Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Some post card size photos from an old album have been received this week supposedly with the information that the negatives were no longer were in existence. Unfortunately after some digging the copyright holders have been located for the majority but there are some of the Londonderry & Lough Swilly dated 31 August 1939 where I have been unable to trace the photographer. I won't put them on flickr but here are 4 of Letterkenny which someone may recognise. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishswissernie Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) Unfortunately for these ones I have no idea as I havn't been able to locate the copyright holder(if there is one). The ones I have traced L&LSR, DN&GR and SLNCR are from 1948 and are copyright HMRS & LNWR Socy. Go on the HMRS site https://hmrs.org.uk/photographs.html and you can purchase digital copies.

Certainly a bit later; in 1960 all locos were green or dirty silver. C's were initially black and tan, the all-black is probably about 1965. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The station staff at Clonakilty Junction were very proud of there station and hence kept it clean. Ray good was a member of the staff and is still kicking today in the IRRS cork branch. He opened a railway wall at the site of the old junction about 2 weeks ago. Some of the other stations had bits and peices flung around, or had been overly done up to inflate the cost of running the railway 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
