The SB or signal box on the OSI 25" map. Aerial view suggests it is gone now, the spot is a carpark.
Niall McAuley said:
ODEA 35/7 suggests that this is not the SB on the 25", but a different one nearer to the station platform. Yes, ODEA 36/76 shows this signal box beside the Goods Store shown on the 25", which is where the new station is now.

The board shows twin tracks heading for Waterford and Carlow to the right and a single track at left heading to Portlaoise. The Portlaoise branch was closed in 1962.

The signal levers up the line at Maryborough South, Co. Laois. (Portlaoise) would have taken some getting used to. catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000304008

The light is phenomenal.

such amazing light. i hope this is an inspiration to today's photographers . . . there's a quality of transparency film that just can't be rivaled with digital.
Matthew Whatley said:
incredible detail. I really love the lighting on the face. This is really impressive.

Artistic work from the pre-digital, pre-photoshop era. Wonderful.

whyaduck: Thanks for the tip! We'll update the source data to reflect Gaynor's full name and a more accurate date. The negative indicates the date of this photograph was March 20, 1913.
