March 19, 1961

  The Signal Cabin is not itself on Albert Quay, it can be seen here on the 25" OSI map. The South City Link Road was built on this old railway. I can tell this is the Signal Cabin in question from this paired photo in the archive: Station from Signal Cabin, Albert Quay, Cork City, Co. Cork As we often find with O'Dea's pictures, this was taken on 19 March 1961, and per wikipedia, Regular passenger services were withdrawn on 1 April 1961

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Thanks Niall McAuley - You are of course correct! I have updated the map location accordingly. And also added a short note to the description. Much appreciated!

  The caption should read Bill Canty taking a breather.
