Well its video of an Irish train and a train station. How far we have come as a country since this train in 1971.

Superb stuff - how much has changed. The modern railway is little better than a graffiti-scrawled Luas set!

Go back a decade earlier than the above and there's even more! The "black'n'tan" era!

I haven't actually looked at this completely yet, but it do's seem interesting, lots of locos, STEAM LOCOS, wagons, vans,, rail cars,

I wonder why I can't open any of these - is it because of Brexit?

Mmm, I also reside in the rump of the Empire, and I can't see them - though, I could see the one from the same source that the Wrenn Boy put up earlier, but I can't see that one now..
