That will be post 1958 when the assets of the GNR were split between the UTA and CIE. One of those rail buses is preserved and resident in the transport gallery of the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, Cultra. www.flickr.com/photos/13073434@N03/40115430283/in/datepos...

Sadly the Carlisle pier is no more. The line had been disconnected and lifted when the DART was being introduced.
