Druids Alter, Islandmagee This is "Ballylumford Dolmen" or locally known as the Druids Altar. The Druids Altar could be 4000 years old, or it could be an even earlier passage grave. It consists of 4 upright stones, with a heavy capstone, and a fallenstone within the structure .This could have been put there to block the entrance to the tomb. islandmagee.webs.com/photos.htm

This is a factory photo by the makers Manlove, Alliott & Co. Ltd. of a steam tram made to the patented design of Edward Perrett. It was delivered on a trial basis to the Dublin and Lucan Steam Tramway which operated a narrow gauge service between Parkgate St. and Lucan between 1881 and 1897. I haven’t seen any actual photos of it in service so don’t know if it was successful or was returned. The line was electrified in 1897 and renamed as the Dublin and Lucan Electric and ran until 1925.

That line was electrified in 1900. The steam engine we saw previously was not one of these:
