The Galway, Newry & Waterford?

That's the one..... known for the fact that every single locomotive, wagon and coach they ever possessed, ran in the wrong livery, and on the wrong gauge track.

I think you'll find it was the right livery, just applied in all the wrong places 😉

Hmm, there must be a gap in my knowledge of Irish railway history. The little known GN&WR...

RAILWAYANA GREAT SOUTHERN & WESTERN RAILWAY CAST IRON GATE NOTICE  - Picture 1 of 5

The Great Northern and Western Railway--------Athlone-Westport and Ballina otherwise known as "Lord Lucan's line", or the Mayo Line

The line was leased by the MGW in 1859 until amalgamated with the larger company in 1889/90.

Whether genuine GNWR gate signs ever existed, I am not really bothered.
