    "In the Heart of the Hibernian Metropolis BEFORE NELSON'S PILLAR TRAILS SLOWED, SHUNTED, CHANGED TROLLEY, started for Blackrock, Kingstown and Dalkey, Clonskea, Rathgar and Terenure, Palmerston park and upper Rathmines, Sandymount Green, Rathmines, Ringsend and Sandymount Tower, Harold's Cross. The hoarse Dublin United Tramway Company's timekeeper bawled them off: -- Rathgar and Terenure! -- Come on, Sandymount Green! Right and left parallel clanging ringing a doubledecker and a singledeck moved from their railheads, swerved to the down line, glided parallel. -- Start, Palmerston park!" Ulysses, the Aeolus episode. I think TRAILS should be TRAMS

    Trams bearing advertisements from the 1930s anyway.

    Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cooooold out there today.

    You can see this landing stage on the OS 25" map, but I don't remember it, so it must have been removed not too long after this photo. This page (by Irish Ship and Barge Fabrication) states that the last barge sailed in 1961.
  • guliolopez said:
    Here's a video of the same barge "on the move" - with funnels reclined. (Niall has the photo location spot-on BTW)
  • FrigateRN said:
    What a great old picture NLI, I love it and thank you for sharing. keep up the good work, your pictures are appreciated.
  • Economic Quiet said:
    Where did they store the barrels.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    If you watch guliolopez 's video, you can see the barge full of empties going upstream.

    According to the Irish Times of March 8th 1960 (a Tuesday), the Senator Possehl was expected to arrive on Friday from Newport News carrying coal. (There is also a reference to Heitons?)

    shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2270926 From the info on this site it would be fairly new (4years old)when this photo was taken. Paint work does look fresh and devoid of heavy rust stains.

    There's a double-headed eagle on the bow, which is most likely the coat of arms of Lübeck. Emil Possehl (the person) was an important businessman and Senator in the Lübecker Senate. (German wiki).
