    Andy Brill Good id of where, but when? I am thinking 1950s from the blokes' hats, the "Left Hand Drive" crane behind, and the louvre windows and new brickwork on the building.

    More about Locomotive No.1 at the PhM - www.powerhousemuseum.com/exhibitions/locomotive1.php

    Interesting. It doesn't seem to be either a MGWR or GS&WR engine. They had no 2-2-2s according to wikipedia.

    The N2 on the front would date it to post 1925.

    Looks like Wikipedia is wrong. According to them, nobody had an N2 no 49 2-2-2 in Ireland, and yet here's a picture of one in Castlebar.
