    Interesting. It doesn't seem to be either a MGWR or GS&WR engine. They had no 2-2-2s according to wikipedia.
  • derangedlemur said:
    The N2 on the front would date it to post 1925.

    Looks like Wikipedia is wrong. According to them, nobody had an N2 no 49 2-2-2 in Ireland, and yet here's a picture of one in Castlebar.

    Interesting to note that both of the Wynne images you've uploaded have a magenta cast. Is there a specific reason for this? I have a fading print of this photograph in the family album, which I thought of uploading to my stream, but you beat me to it. :-)

    Oh sorry, Mike! I was just so eager to get it up there. Really don't know about the magenta cast - many of our Wynne photos have it, and I love it personally...
  • Mike Hannon said:
    No need to apologise at all. It's one of those photos I was sure you'd have, and in far superior quality to the print I have. The remainder of the photographs I have are of the immediate Wynne family members, and then my Great-grandfathers offspring, so I hope to see many more of T.J's photos here.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Well, if you're uploading any of the family members to your own stream, let's know - would love to see what they looked like...
  • Mike Hannon said:
    Haha! I don't think I'll go that far yet, as I only have the free account on here, and I'm limited to 200 photos. I did come across two postcards from the era that I've scanned and posted, and though the photographs aren't credited to Thomas, they may be of interest.......
