  The British Rail train ferry Cambridge Ferry. She operated between Holyhead and Dun Laoghaire in February 1991, right at the end of her career. She was also a regular on the Fishguard - Rosslare run during the late 1980s.

  Troops? [ed. Oh I see what you meant!] "... In 1972, Cambridge Ferry and Essex Ferry made ten voyages between Harwich and Dublin, Ireland to deliver new rolling stock to CIÉ. ..." From - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MV_Cambridge_Ferry

  Flickr is sometimes surprisingly amazing! In 1984 via TimWebb

• O Mac said:

  There's a connection between this ferry and Train Ferry 2 seen at Cork. Both used the same "link span" at Harwich. This links span was moved from Port Richborough after WW1 and is now a national monument in Harwich. flic.kr/p/bKFARH I wonder how those new coach's with their 5' 3” Irish guage aligned with the 4' 81/2” British guage on the ferry?

• Suck Diesel said:

  Well, they didn't, must have been up on wooden blocks or something. Delivery of seventy-two Mk2 coaches from Derby. Lasted in service till 2008. I wonder what it was doing on the Fishguard run as train ferrries were never a feature between Britain and Ireland

Croagh Patrick, Westport, Co. Mayo and a whole lot more.

  I am not seeing any obvious dates here...

• derangedlemur said:

  The rolling stock is towards the later end of the date range, I think.

  The next photo features an Honoria McBride's establishment; She's there in 1901, gone by 1911.
