    O Mac It is indeed, you might like this video produced last year by Bus Éireann to mark the 70th anniversary of Busáras, Ireland’s central bus and coach station. It opened for business on 19 October 1953.

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Well, it’s just across the street from Amiens St. railway station, probably on his way there and saw this alternative mode of transport
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Suck Diesel Is Aras Mhic Dhiarmada not still there, referring to the Government offices over the bus station?

Women in horse trotting race at the Royal National Show Brisbane, 1948

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Women were involved with horse racing in Australia by the 1890s. Since then, they have owned horses, trained horses, gambled on horses and attended the races. Their participation in the sport was hampered because of a lack of facilities and participation rates were not as high as other sports. In 1940, a study of 314 women in New Zealand and Australia was done. Most of the women in the study were middle class, conservative, Protestant and white. The study found that 183 participated in sport. The third most popular sport that these women participated in was horse riding, with 38 having played the sport.[9] The ninth most popular sport that these women participated in was horse racing, with 3 having played the sport. The sport was tied with billiards, chess, fishing, field hockey, croquet, squash, table tennis and shooting. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_horse_racing_in_Australia

    I might be wrong, but I am guessing the photo is after 1897.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia you might be right!

    Here is something: there is a scratched out title line above and to the left of the legible one, which means this is a Cabinet plate copy.
    Here is the original Imperial plate image for comparison and maybe more detail -

    Warwickshire Herald - Thursday 25 August 1898
    Holidays keepers who intend to spend their summer vacation in the Emerald Isle, can hardly do better than to select Holden's Laharna Hotel, Larne, as their headquarters. The establishment, which is under the efficient personal superintendence of Mr. A. W. Holden. is undoubtedly one of the best in Larne, and visitors will find their material requirements well catered for. In addition to commercial, coffee, dining and drawing rooms. there is a large concert and ball room, promenade roof, tennis court and all the adjuncts of a really first class English or Continental hotel.
    and this is what you got for your 2 guineas
    For two guineas the can have six days hotel accommodation, including three meals daily. a first-class railway journey to Portrush and Giant's Causeway. a total distance of 180 miles, a coach drive to Glenoe Waterfalls, as trip to Whitehead and Blackhead, a drive round the city of Belfast, with free admission to the principal places. and a fifty mile coach drive to Glenarm, Camlough and Glenariff Falls, along the finest coast in the British Isles. The impression of the visitor to the Laharna Hotel can hardly fail to be that the enterprising host supplies his guest with a marvellous two guineas worth.
