    I hope diesel c209 finds a friend to drag / push ! the image just oozes despair; it's like " the scream" on tracks, and even they could just go round and round for eternity

    Could be a defect in one cab or perhaps its just accessing the shed via the turntable.

    A local photographer who documented Birr at the turn of the 19th/20th centuries was George Morrison of Cumberland Square, Birr. 21 photos of his are held at the UK National Archives in Kew, including ones with such intriguing and tantalising descriptions as "Photograph of John's Place, Birr. Bread cart opposite Mrs Boner's", "Photograph of John's Place, Birr. Two boys on roadway near Dr Stoneys, No 7 Johns Place, Birr", "Photograph of the coffee bar Leinster depot, Birr barracks" (although the copyright for this one belongs to Edward Morrison). I haven't got a visit to Kew planned, but I'll put them on the list of things to see next time I'm there.

    Is this photo scanned backwards? The original handwriting on the glass plate image is reversed, -or so it seems.
  • John Spooner said:
    CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY It looks the right way round judging from the buttons on the tunic of the soldier scratching his chin near the sentry box.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Which was first? catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000317389 - this one, or catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000330910 - another one.
  • CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
    Is it possible the tents were temporary until barracks and administration building were constructed?
