Evening all,

 

Weekends have been made much more interesting with the operation of the IWT Liner from North Wall to Ballina and the Coillte Empty Timber train from Waterford to Ballina on certain Saturdays. Both operated today. While I couldn't make it out for the IWT Liner I did manage to photograph the Timber at several locations in the Kildare, Laois and Offaly areas.

These pictures are now online at:

I've also launched a new facebook page for the website at https://www.facebook.com/thewandererphotos . If you're on facebook come and pay a visit.

 

Enjoy,

The Wanderer.

Evening all,

 

A rather busy weekend just gone with photos from both Saturday and Sunday.

 

On Saturday 7th September the Irish Railway Records Society organised a outing from Dublin to Portrush & Derry using regular scheduled trains. A visit to the Foyle Valley Museum was also included in the trip.

After travelling to Derry on the Saturday with the I.R.R.S. I stayed in the West Dublin area on the Saturday night which allowed me to visit "The Gullet" outside Heuston Station on the Sunday morning for the G.A.A. Specials from Cork, Limerick, Ennis, Waterford and Galway.

All of the photos are now online at The trip to Derry is in the "I.R.R.S. Outing to Derry & Foyle Valley Railway Museum" & the G.A.A. Specials are contained in the "September 2013" gallery.

 

Enjoy!
