  Dunno who these two gentlemen are, but "The first train [1874} from Kilfree to Ballaghaderreen was driven by Ben Partridge, an English man from Kent, who married and settled down in Ballaghaderreen. His family were later employed by the Monica Duff Company." From www.loughgaralakesandlegends.ie/contribution-page/ballagh... full of local information.

• Fred Dean Snr. said:

  This was the branch train, and only served the branch line, not the main line.

  Is this Arlington, Virginia or another Arlington?

• Wystan said:

  "Assuming an Irish name was not unusual in that era of boxing; there were Jewish fighters with Irish names too; and Jim Flynn, the only man who ever knocked out Jack Dempsey, was actually named Andrea Chiariglione. One reason for the name changes is that there were not enough Irish fighters to satisfy the large number of Irish fans." -- Pete Hamill, "Why Sinatra Matters" (Boston: Little, Brown, 1998), p. 58.
