According to this map on Wikipedia, there was only ever one junction near Enfiled, Nesbitt Junction. The left hand line is a branch headed for Edenderry, which closed in 1963. I believe the photo was taken near this red doohickey. The curved path of the closed line is still visible in the hedges before disappearing under the new motorway.

Thanks, great photo, although it's not exactly the one I was expected as the loco is not bonnet first but I am convinced he has one at Nesbitt somewhere, but never the less an interesting image all the same cheers! Yes that line curving away is the branch line to Edenderry.

Nesbitt Junction and the branch line to Edenderry can be seen clearer in the 1995 B/W aerial photo. maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,675406,741025,6,5 Switch to the Historic 25 inch map for more detail. It's great that the OSI have published these old aerial photos.

Niall McAuley blackpoolbeach Thanks for the map work! I've added it where Ciarán said, because I can't remember the link for my OSI converter... Will doublecheck against OSI on Monday. And you're dead right about the aerial photos - they're fantastic!

I wonder what it is. It looks like a 121 except that they don't have a middle window facing back, and if it's facing forward, there'd be another window on the side before the big window. Where are all the usual rail bods? Edit: It looks like some had windows facing along the hood and others didn't. B132, seems to have one, for example. irishrailwaymodeller.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=6294 And 124 seems to have windows in some pictures and not in others. Anyway, I now pronounce this to be a 121 class locomotive looking three quarters rearward.

The 121s had middle windows facing back (back is actually forward on the 121s - running cab forward is reverse). The windows were plated over as part of a cab upgrade in the early 2000s
