    GeoHive 25" map In this streetview you can see that the buildings on this site now are called RAILWAY STABLES Eiretrains says the station and whole branch line to Tullow closed completely in 1959, so I think this must be early 60s, the tracks are not overgrown yet.

    Seems to be a 4-4-0T of some sort.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Or maybe a 4-4-0. According to wikipedia the last 4-4-0T was withdrawn in 1939.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Yep. Apparently it's a GNIR class PP 4-4-0.

    Junction of Ship St and Lower Glanmire Road Google Maps
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Eoin Thanks a million, Eoin! If you have a sec, cast your expert Cork eye over the location for me, and make sure you're happy with it... Have it right at the junction itself - do we need to do a bit of "left a bit, right a bit"??

    This was the link line that connected Corks mainline station(Kent) with the long gone terminus of the West Cork Railway at Albert Quay. St Patricks church in the background. PS. Note the bell in the drivers hand.
