'WAB' on the carriage probably represents 'Wengernalpbahn' (i.e. Wengernalp Railway): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wengernalp_Railway This locomotive (now with the Brienz Rothorn Bahn but originally built for the Wengernalpbahn) looks very like the steam engine in the photo: flic.kr/p/dW7WJz

National Library of Ireland on The Commons A quickie colourization with a disappointing rusty engine. Somebody clever might be able to do better ... via playback.fm/colorize-photo

Rory Sherlock You are on the ball this morning. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wengernalp_Railway The wooden water trough is a piece of workmanship in itself.

The full title in the catalogue is School treat, Fanny Mason, 1904. Group of school girls dressed in pinafores holding floral bouquets older girl holds larger bouquet, perhaps winner of competition. There is a Fannie Mason aged 10 in the 1901 census of Clonbrock, a farmer's daughter. From the title, Fanny is in the photo holding a bouquet, but not the oldest with the largest bouquet. I would guess the girl smiling in the middle?

The catalogue has another shot, from the back of the crowd, of the judging: CLON927

Perhaps one of our horticultural contributors could identify the season from the (wild?) flowers. In any case, nothing to do with a Marian devotion, I suspect

Attention Flickroonies! Tipperary Studies have put up hundreds of 1930s glass plates of Munster stuff. High difficulty, few clues. I solved this one yesterday, emailed them and they updated the index same day, so good response their end. Have at them! www.tippstudiesdigital.ie/items/show/2498

Fountains Abbey not so hard: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountains_Abbey, a Cistercian Abbey near Ripon, North Yorkshire. I don't believe we have seen any Clonbrock shots from that part of the world on Flickr, at least.

Great fun trying to find an equivalent on streetview. I think Ms Dillon was left and up in the trees, behind this view - the best I could find so far - goo.gl/maps/feNoK3vcEGALA9ss7

Niall McAuley Definitely none on Flickr, as I went through them all recently.
