snapper Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I am looking for a little help, I am trying to find some pictures of Thurles station, yard, buildings ect in the 1950s -60s. I have tried some of the usual sources, eiretrains, google images but I am not having much luck. Anybody have any links / sources of pictures of Thurles in that period, or earlier. Thanks in advance, snapper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance, snapper There seems to be quite a few photos in the O'Dea collection, dating from the late 1950s-early '60s... http://catalogue.nli.ie/Collection/vtls000148612/Home?lookfor=thurles&submit=Apply ...I especially like the one of the J15 dragging a two-car AEC set out of the station.

The problem for me with looking at old photos is I get grand ideas for layouts that I have no space to build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
