It took me a while, but I see the smile ... 11 May 1963 was a Saturday.

So, this belongs to a GNR (not GMR ) fire engine! catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000306468

Fred Dean Snr. Is it GMR or GNR ? Confused! And another on the same side with a man in a mac - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000306467

The details (eg chimney) in the backgrounds of those other photos should enable a precise position of the fire engine in the rail yards at Inchicore - www.google.com/maps/place/Inchicore,+Dublin,+Ireland/@53.... *dusts off the trigonometry set*

I think it has to be somewhere along the Carrickbrack road area OSI, as that's the part running along the road. But I'm not sure how that matches up with the background...

There's a slightly different angle of the same tram also available, this time recorded as in Sutton.
Niall McAuley said:
The track is doubled here.
Sharon Corbet said:
Niall McAuley Then I'll go with this bit (OSI) matching with this current bus stop.

Why is it in Location Hunters? Sure it's Adelaide Yard in Belfast. There is a new traincare facility there now.

Entrance to Adelaide Station is here

The locomotive in the foreground (no. 187) was built in 1913 and was withdrawn from service some time in the 5 years after this photo.

Great shot of the shunting yard, great to see working steam engines.

Interesting detail: looking through the window of the 3rd loco, I think I see the Red Hand logo of the Ulster Transportation Authority, which was only formed in May 1958, a year or so before this shot. The earlier GNR logo had a smaller Red Hand, surrounded by castles, a ship, a skeleton (?) etc. [Edit: the skeleton is from the arms of Derry, the ship from Belfast, 3 of the castles from Dublin]
