    CV-440-12, s/n 336. Delivered to Sabena 17 July 1956 and registered OO-SCL. WFU and went to Frontier Airlines 10 December 1967 as N73160. Converted to CV-580 1968. Last went to Aspen Airways 9 December 1988. Written off 20 January 1989. Received substantial damage in a forced landing near Buena Vista, CO due to engine failure. The aircraft landed on a dirt road, hit a fence and a log pile caused the nose gear to collapse.

    I think the photographer is on the footbridge shown on the OS 25" map here. If you flip to the modern streetmap, there is no sign of the railway now. Google map location: at this green arrow.

    The loco in the shot appears to be 171 (Slieve Gullion), which is currently stored by the RPSI at Whitehead awaiting overhaul. www.steamtrainsireland.com/171/

    The station would close 6 days later on 21st March 1959 - you can see more about it here www.flickr.com/photos/2cme/5416013948/ as well as a contemporary view of the remaining buildings. The Irish Railway Records Society had a much more cosmopolitan following and was not tarnished (in those days anyway) with the current perception of "train spotters" and I would suggest the ladies were part of the IRRS group (or partners/relatives of those there)

    Now that is an interesting shot, there are just the two passenger cars and the remainder of the train is made up of goods wagons, that must be unusual for an outing. I was going on the dart to Lansdown Road a couple of weeks ago and as I was passing through Pearse Station there were larger crowds than usual. Further down the line a steam engine with carriages was getting ready for the IRRS group to go on an outing but as it was between stations I did not manage to see it in time to get any shots.

    Are you sure the location isn't Buggleskelly?
