    Curiously the Cork Examiner retrospective "Picture That" makes no mention of the 1902 exhibition but does mention the huge popularity of the 1889 exhibition

    You can see this landing stage on the OS 25" map, but I don't remember it, so it must have been removed not too long after this photo. This page (by Irish Ship and Barge Fabrication) states that the last barge sailed in 1961.

    Here's a video of the same barge "on the move" - with funnels reclined. (Niall has the photo location spot-on BTW)
  • FrigateRN said:
    What a great old picture NLI, I love it and thank you for sharing. keep up the good work, your pictures are appreciated.
  • Economic Quiet said:
    Where did they store the barrels.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    If you watch guliolopez 's video, you can see the barge full of empties going upstream.

March 19, 1961

    The Signal Cabin is not itself on Albert Quay, it can be seen here on the 25" OSI map. The South City Link Road was built on this old railway. I can tell this is the Signal Cabin in question from this paired photo in the archive: Station from Signal Cabin, Albert Quay, Cork City, Co. Cork As we often find with O'Dea's pictures, this was taken on 19 March 1961, and per wikipedia, Regular passenger services were withdrawn on 1 April 1961

    Thanks Niall McAuley - You are of course correct! I have updated the map location accordingly. And also added a short note to the description. Much appreciated!

    The caption should read Bill Canty taking a breather.
