Noel Posted September 12, 2018 Posted September 12, 2018 Where abouts in the country is ‘Williamstown’ located? Quote
Willieo17 Posted September 12, 2018 Author Posted September 12, 2018 This is actually Youghal in Co Cork Williamstown is the townland where the station is located Quote
Mayner Posted September 12, 2018 Posted September 12, 2018 Looks like Youghal! There appears to have been little change in the station/track layout from the early 1900s until the excursion platforms were removed following storm damage in 1962. https://www.rte.ie/archives/exhibitions/1916-amateur-films/651943-storm-damage-youghal-1962/ The 1960s onwards would be simplest from as good quality locos and rolling stock is available both kits and ready to run. The steam era would be more challenging as apart from the forthcoming OO Works J15 most of the locos and stock would have to be scratch built. 2 Quote
