    Flickr sometimes has an amazing earlier photo! Via Fingal Local Studies Was Mr O'Dea on that wonderful old footbridge? The station seems to have been rebuilt nearer the level crossing. In May 2020 via Barry Kelly

    The railway is gone, admittedly, but still, a bit of a half-hearted effort by O'Dea today.

    quietly hums the blues classic "hear my train a comin'" a NLI classic for Hendrix week ( yes, like many it is believed that there was a lost Irish greatgrandparent).

    Belfast Telegraph - Tuesday 27 January 1959:
    Eire to offer holiday camp coaches The Eire Transport Board, C.I.E., is to provide holiday camping coaches next summer at Killarney, Dungarvan and Carrick-on-Shannon. Announcing this last night, Dr. C. S. Andrews, chairman of the Board, said the coaches would be let at a very reasonable cost to families and parties travelling by C.I.E. train services. If the idea caught on, the scheme would be extended. Dr. Andrews said the cost of hotel accommodation for large families often prevented them from having holidays in districts they would like to visit. In each of the camping coaches, which would be located at or near station premises, there would be sleeping accommodation for eight persons, a living room and a fully equipped kitchen, and all crockery. cutlery, cooking utensils, towels and bed linen would be supplied.

    A "lifting gang" would be the lads pulling up the tracks after a line is closed, but according to eiretrains; Passenger services on the Mallow to Waterford line ceased in 1967, but the section just west of Dungarvan town (Ballinacourty) to Waterford remained in regular use until 1982 serving the magnesite plant there. The tracks were eventually taken up in the late 1990s.

    SPOTTED ! At 0.25 in this 1966 film - youtu.be/rIO9F94Vz5U
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I think Ballynacourty is actually East of Dungarvan, so these lads were probably lifting from Dungarvan to Mallow.
