A couple of GNR gems in this selection. Note the "Royal" Saloon from July 1953 (GNR No. 50) sitting behind the picture of the Crane Tank engine. Also the one showing a VS shunting into the centre roads at Amiens Street with a 'P' bogie van behind it, to the left of the picture is the CIE 'AEC Railcar fitted trailer coach which was then in use as the Belfast-Cork Through Coach. Shadows suggest this is mid day so the the VS is making up the 14.30 Dublin-Belfast train while the CIE coach (arrived 12.45) is awaiting transfer over to the CIE lines.
