About Eiretrains
Since July 2007
this website has been displaying my photographs featuring the
past and present day railway network in Ireland. In my travels
over the last 10 years I have visited some 400 locations and
with time there will be hopefully many more to come. Some
pictures feature trains, old & new, as well as the railway
stations themselves.
With each location photographed, I have attempted to provide
some brief history and relevant details of the particular
stations and lines. Many of these railway lines and stations in
Ireland are changing, some gradually disappearing while others
have been restored to use.
In addition to
photographs, my Irish railway videos can be viewed on the
Eiretains
youtube channel.
I have also been privileged to use many excellent photographs
contributed by fellow rail photographers, and these images of
mainly historical value have helped in emphasising the past &
present theme that features in the many of the photo-galleries.
Since 2007 I have also received many other photographic and
historical material for inclusion on the website, as well
countless messages of interest and support; which is much
appreciated!
