Well, 1895 onwards. Loco looks like the ‘Bat’, Class E no. 110, from 1891 Edit: This loco ended its days on the Waterford to Tramore line up to 1961. In service for 70 years. They don’t make them like that anymore!

Station opened 1895. Looks very fresh here, lime on the red brick, zero weeds in the track bed.

In 1901, Robert John Boag was stationmaster, but he was only 27. I think the gent in the bowler is master here and twice that age. Or maybe the man next to him in the fanciest uniform is Boag, and Mr. Bowler Hat is a boss from the railway company?

There are several pics. In L_IMP_3526 there is a torn poster advertising FAIRS AUGUST, and a noticeboard marked GLASGOW AND SOUTH WESTERN RAILWAY??

L_IMP_3528 still has neat stacks of red bricks and roof tiles from construction of the station. {EDIT see below, that is one is Clifden, not Achill]

This view is from Achill, looking back across the Sound with the train station (left) and the Church of Ireland church (before it lost its tower) visible

Per eiretrains: Achill, Co.Mayo, is the terminus of the well know line from Westport, built by the Midland Great Western Railway in 1894/5 Looks rather new here.
