Flow gently sweet afton among thy sweet braes

    (guess) Is perchance that luggage wagon being propelled by that articulated railcar? (This is distracting me from getting to some negative digitisation to replace a O'Dea Thurles image on Wikipedia & Wikimedia commons up for a possible copyvio)

    Deirge Del Good morning Deirge, yes it does appear to be hitched to the railcar.

    happy new year .... always remember that trips "down south" needed a readjustment to Carrols and Aftons .... now thankfully I need no adjustments anywhere and save a lot of money.... humming " I hear that that lonesome whistle blow"

    some may be able to ID the car boot ??

    I can't see what's going on with those harnesses above the Station 1173 marker. It looks like there are a bunch of contacts crimped on to the wires but the connector body is missing.

    A much improved cabover was the Internatioonal CO [Cab Over] series, with its cab-forward design and excellent visibility. It was introduced around 1954-55, and would be one of the most popular International trucks of all time, until production ceased in the early 1970s. This tilt-cab was designed by Diamond T and has been used on their own trucks, as well as Reo/Diamond Reo and Hendrickson trucks. This is a pre-1959 truck. In 1959 this model went to quad headlights.
