    That's Newbridge station between Kildare and Sallins, looking eastwards. Interesting photo, the buildings haven't changed that much.

    Ciarán Cooney Aha, so that's why I was having difficulty finding "Kilbride" station! It really hasn't changed. So used it be called Kilbride??
  • Swordscookie said:
    I was looking at the location and trying to think when I ever saw a railway line near Kilbride. I may be mistaken but I don't think there ever was one???? Doesn't matter anyway that is a good shot of Newbridge and it looked like that any time I passed through it.

    Swordscookie And don't suppose you know where the barracks was? (Link above)
  • Ciarán Cooney said:
    I've always known it to be Newbridge, I checked wiki history and there's no mention of Kilbride, but I don't know! There's the large barracks in Newbridge town, which I presume the soldiers are coming from. This is roughly the site of barracks today.

The job is OXO!

    Oxo was a leader brand, right? Unforgettable advertising campaigns... Lots to see here, anyway... Thank you

    "OXO excellent with milk for growing children" sounds yuk, but someone might know better ... Edit - Two lads and a convenient bucket - youtu.be/i7XPUhCbfWY
  • Foxglove said:
    the thought of Oxo and milk at breakfast time is disturbing. Virol, I think that was a sheep fluke and worm drench. not for breakfast either
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Foxglove Stop. You're reminding me of the Cheno Unction ads on de wireless! Do you remember them? “Tis a quare name, but great shtuff!”
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Carol Maddock Cheno Unction dairy ointment is a soothing barrier ointment for cuts, grazes, bruises, chapped teats & skin abrasions. Also contains Neem oil as a natural fly repellent. Apply liberally to soothe chapped or sore teats. Glanbia Connect

    OSI 25" from 1907 at GeoHive.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    From Wikipedia In 1899, the company introduced the trademark Oxo for a cheaper version; the origin of the name is unknown, but presumably comes from the word 'ox'. The first Oxo cubes were produced in 1910 and further increased Oxo's popularity, as the cubes were cheaper than the liquid.

    Intriguing - You would have to think that all the onlookers were not there by accident, it must have something to do with a well advertised event.

    A1 Sauce is from 1873, no help.
