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.

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

I like railways, but as a composition, this is shockingly bad. The eye isn't drawn to any point of interest, the train (if that's meant to be the focus) is too small, the centre is a telegraph pole and the whole thing is basically a big triangle in the lower half a horizontally split field.

The Ballaghadereen branch is gone, but the Sligo line is still there in Streetview. I think O'Dea may have climbed one of the signal posts to get this angle.
Niall McAuley said:
derangedlemur Maybe O'Dea took this one in a hurry so he could climb down, run and take one at the station.

Niall McAuley Looking at your map link, he seems to be where the .400 field meets the .831 field.
