Just got a copy of this bookazine this morning in the post. Articles on the Cavan and Leitrim and NG railcars. Great colour photos of the Donegal, West Clare and the C&L. Published by Kelsey Publishing.

Couldn't find this mag in WHS, but did find a similar publication called Wheels of Industry, where there are four pictures of Larne aluminium works locos. However at ten quid, you'll probably need a wider interest in all things industrial. A decent article on Aveling and Porter locos persuaded me to part with the cash, plus another one on crane tanks. Not that I'm about to build either, but do find such things interesting.

Interested in that article on Larne. Order that magazine direct from Kelsey publishing with free p&p in the UK. Good articles on the Cavan and Leitrim,  County Donegal railcars and the West Clare. Many great archive colour photos by Geoff Lumb.

Got that magazine Wheels of Industry for 7.99 including p&p. Robbed by WHS?

Looks like it!

Inside there is also a photo of a contractor's loco on the C&L.

Correction David it is a photo of an industrial called Donegal used to build the Strabane and Letterkenny Railway from 1906 and when opened in 1909 it was the last new NG line in Ireland.
