Irish Railway TV Series

[Gavin Hamilton]

Hi All,

Learnt my first lesson - don't ask two questions in my first post because only one will get answered!

I saw, on I think TG4 catchup (not 100% sure as the original email went missing during a microsoft 'recovery') a TV program, which I didn't think to copy, which featured the Ballycastle branch starting with an NCC 0-6-0T and ended showing an S Class on the viaduct at Ballycastle - does anyone have a copy they can sell me or know what the program was called so I can purchase a copy? This was one of a series of programs, most of which I was able to watch at the time but I can't remember the series title, if I ever knew it

Regards

Gavin

Remember the series it was on TG4 a few years ago. Have you searched YouTube?

[Gavin Hamilton]

Can't remember the series title, without the title a search is difficult

I think the series you’re referring to was titled

Iarnrod Uladh ( produced by Waddell Media and aired on TG4)

Yes indeed remember being interviewed for that series.

I eventually found the email address for TG4 to enquire but I had to put my county down as 'other' to complete the form, whether I will hear anything back from them?

I'll do some digging for Iarnrod Uladh to see if this is what I'd seen originally, if It's in Gaelic I'm stuffed, I can just about follow French but..

Found the contact details for the producers of the series, which confirms it is the program I'd seen so am now waiting to hear if they sell it on DVD.

You’re welcome!!

Got a very fast response from Weddell Media, try them again later in the year when we are back to the 'new normal', which wasn't a total no, so if available I'll purchase the box set, unless someone has one they can copy for me ?

No but would be interested in a copy of that series which has subtitled myself as well.
