    Fantastic shopfront!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    If the original moulding and ironwork has been preserved, it should be possible to find the exact address/location of this shop using Google Maps. I've very loosely placed it along the Quays in Waterford... (that's what's known in the trade as an unsubtle hint!)

    Is that not just a Leinster harp on account of them being from New Ross?

    The wall of Jordan's pub (then the L&NW office) now bears this plaque:
    Plaque on Jordan's Pub, The Quay, Waterford City, Ireland
  • Gerry Ward said:
    The ‘Stars & Stripes’ flag does not appear to be any one of the normal variations that would have been in existence before the end of the nineteenth century. The star arrangement differs from any of the established arrangements at that time!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    No Kirwans, Laffans or Byrnes on the parade according to the census of 1901 or 1911.

    LNWR Mail train at Euston c1900


    It's 1395 Archimedes, a Webb Dreadnought class divided drive compound. Note the large cylinder-head cover above the buffer beam.

    She was built at Crewe in 1886 and scrapped in 1904.

    Info from John Whitaker abpr

    Handsome engines but prone to slipping. You can't see it in the
    picture but these were actually 2-2-2-0 not 2-4-0. The drivers were
    uncoupled. If one pair of drivers slipped it lost that one's share of
    adhesive weight and the other pair slipped almost immediately.

    info from Christopher A Lee abpr

    Thanks to the knowledgeable folk at alt.binaries.pictures.rail

    I think this is dated 1926, and is probably taken during the General Strike. It looks like it says 5/4/26, which makes it the 4th May 1926, second day of the strike.
  • Alan Slingsby said:
    Coach behind engine has "Manchester" sign on it. so it's probably Euston station
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks all, for your research and comments. We will add the date and station information to the data and reload the description.
