1936 with some interesting characters on display! A "Brownshirt" on the left? A Mr. Bean in clowns outfit and a PH Pearse imitator complete with wig and gown? Having a fancy dress party would have been great craic.
Merry Christmas one and all! -

The Silvermines line was a short branch of 1¼ miles, off the Ballybrophy – Killonan line, at Silvermines Jct, between Nenagh and Birdhill. It opened in 1966 to serve a barytes mine. The mine and branch closed in 1993.
