    Here is IM 181 also in Westport, at the railway station:
    Bowling along in their motor

    In the archive, a rear view of todays bus, IM 180, at Leenane. On the back is painted Tourist Car Clifden Westport, so I imagine they are going to Clifden via Leenane.
  • Foxglove said:
    to a modern eye the piles of horse manure are more numerous than expected. So neatly gathered for collection, the chicken seems to be getting a god feed of grubs/flies.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Both IM 180 and IM 181, along with IM 179 are in the 1915 Irish Motor Book as being Char-a-bancs owned by Midland G.W. Railway, Broadstone.

    Wonderful photo! A large number of those people are staring directly at the camera: did Mr French shout "CHEESE!" ?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia Given that they were about to embark on a weekends fasting shouting "Cheese" might have been a bit too cruel in the circumstances?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    They are at the then train station. 25" map. Per eiretrains: Pettigo, Co.Fermanagh, is located on the former Great Northern Railway's branch line to the well known coastal resort of Bundoran, built in June 1886 and unfortunately closed in November 1957 EDIT: Per Fred Dean's comment below, it seems eiretrains has the wrong date here, and the station actually opened in 1868.

    The conveyance on our left is labelled Flood's Hotel. Here is Daniel J. Flood, Hotel Proprietor in the census of 1901 and 1911.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The bus on our right is labelled Brennans Pettigoe. There are no Brennans at all in the 1901 census in Pettigoe, and none who look to be running charabancs in 1911.
