Any chance of your looking at old Irish railways again?

An extremely dangerous position.

Reopening the railway line would bring back trains stop 1) Pollution, 2) Car Accidents/Road Deaths & 3) Traffic Jams.

Excellent manipulation of available resources aided by your passing comments.My uncle lived in Newcastle for a while before returning to live in Belfast. To escape a family gathering one December I managed to have a good look at Newcastle Station before the railway co. released the land and buildings for other uses. As children his brothers used to write to him at school adding the accolade B&CDR after his name on the envelope.

Dddďdď

All should be brought back to stop 1) Pollution, 2) Car Accidents/Road Deaths & 3) Pollution.

Bobs burgers brought me here

Was that an aqueduct? When was it built

The railway line like all should be reopened to trains to cut down 1) Traffic Jams, 2) Car Accidents/Road Deaths & 3) Pollution.

La neta no me gusta. Si me agrada la idea de un deporte más completo que el resto pero llegar con el balón a la zona de anotación le quita lo bueno y hace que se sienta como más tramposo... O esa mmda de pasártelo a ti mismo de la mano al pie para luego anotar o simplemente para regresartelo de nuevo a la mano... Mejor sería si solo hubiera una zona en el medio donde se pudieran agarrar con la mano y después a puro pie. Está buena la idea pero debe mejorarse muuucho

Reopening it would cut down 1) Traffic Jams, 2) Car Accidents/Road Deaths & 3) Pollution.

Electrical company I used to work at from 2001-2003 had its office in the Annaghmore Station building. The building in yor pitcure which was demolished, was indeed a car dealership, Renault i think. The station building was in an average condition when I worked there. Back then, i never really looked around as much as I would do now, i was in my late teens/early 20s and so didnt really care. But i think it still had the hatch in what must have been the ticket office. Round the back was a storeroom, accessed down a ramp. It must have sat on the original line. Sadly now, it too has been demolished and the entire site is now a housing development!

Reopening of the Railway line would bring back trains cut down on 1) Traffic Jams, 2) Car Accidents/Road Deaths & 3) Pollution.

You should continue tracing the old line all the way to Donaghadee (via Newtownards) on google maps

When the God's came out to play on Mount Olympus they played hurling.the game of the Gods

Compared to the station portadown had the present station is a modern monstrosity.

The Cashel branch would make a great heritage railway, so would the Loughrea branch.

Really really interesting stuff this! At about 7:50 you just passed Bective GFC, there's a really old bridge just beside the entrance to that football club which I assume the train went over! But would have had no idea if I hadn't watched this

The council doesnt give a reason why it was taken away

!

I don’t know if this line would be necessary to reopen. It feels like a duplicate line when we have a junction to the line through Clonmel.

Like si La Media Inglesa te trajo aquí

Fútbol gaélico = Barcelona en sus partidos

ouch ouch ouch... That's gonna be hurting some day.

The Lidl in Enniskillen has a dedication to the former station site in the carpark..

Great content. I've just stumbled upon your channel today and I'm glad I did. Very interesting.

There’s the remains of a platform on the greenway. I can’t remember at what point it is.

Re Enniskillen station, I wonder would it have been where the loading area for Dunnes is now?

Some interesting history in Coalisland. Just as the railways were supplanted by the road network, the railways replaced the canals. The Ulster Architectural History Society did a tour on Dukart’s Folly, a story worth looking at! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dukart%27s_Canal

I’ve often delivered Hunky Dorys crisps to Kearney’s Costcutter shop right beside Randalstown station. I’ve often left the lorry to have a nosey at the building. Nice to see it’s survived. The walkway along the top of the viaduct is worth visiting!

Интересная игра, динамичная. Только она называется хёрлинг, а не хорлинг.

I’m sure you’re very interested in the feasibility study that recently found in favour of reopening the line to Dungannon.

La canción de fondo es god

The closing of the railway lines and stations was absolutely madness at the time...I agree 100% bring back our railways 🛤

Se parece a las retas del fútbol borracho con patadas y manos en el balon que echabamos en los recreos de la primaria jajaja que recuerdos

Hi Eamonn Fethard Station was my first home . My family lived in the station from 1954 to 1959. My dad Thomas Butler was the station master. I remember the “up” trains to Thurles and the “down” trains to Clonmel. My earliest memory was sneaking into my parents bedroom looking over the platform to watch the steam engine puffing black smoke and the driver, face covered in coal dust, looking up at us and blasting the horn and scaring us. Thanks for the memories. Eamon (with one n)

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gbd_ZNWZx87HZ30.htmlsi=3rKzKLRkGQpsLjBu check out this footage, you can see the train traveling on the Clonmel to Fethard line and a bridge over the one in Fethard

Lisbellaw does have a bypass. It opened in 1968 and is still in operation as the A4.

It wouldn't take much to reinstall it, a few CPOs on about ten houses and Kilmessan Station and thats it, no need to change coarse at all, but don't hold your breath, I've been hearing about this for as long as i can remember but unfortunately the greens are doing as little about it as any of the other did. They want us all out of cars so provide us with cycle lanes for our bikes and that's as good as it gets with this lot. Don't be surprised if they turn ir into a greenway.

There was no Fairyhouse station. The line on to Kingscourt and further north didn't pass through Malones garage, but a bit closer to the town at Navan glass and can still be seen.

Would you consider continuing on your fascinating journey from Armagh to Mullangar in the light of the All Ireland rail review that proposes reopening Portadown ,Armagh all the way to Mullangar. Apologies if I missed a video covering this. Particularly interested in Cavan area.

Bike path is a fabulous idea!

Great video. Imagine having the 1910 train infrastructure back in place on the island. That’s the dream.

It was such a shame to see all these railway lines shut down. Ireland had the best railway network in Europe a hundred years ago, until they were all closed down. They need to be opened up again pronto even if in a small capacity. A few houses on the line wouldn't be a problem, government would CPO and knock them down if they really wanted, we've been hearing about railways lines being relayed since i was a kid, but im not holding my breath. We've heard it all before. Green party are now in government and have good clout. They want us all out of our cars so Eamon Ryan has given us all cycles lanes for our bikes and guss where else he put them ? On the old railway tracks !

At about 2 minutes, you've missed where the railway line crossed the Gilford Road out of Scarva by about 100 metres. The stone supports for the former railway bridge over the Scarva canal are clearly seen on Google Streetview. There are lots of pictures of the bridge supports on Google Maps, but mostly wrongly attributed to the 'Cusher River Aqueduct' - which is nearby.

Recently a proposal was put forward by the Southern Gov trying to get the old Derry line reopened. Plus pay for a good part of it!! It received from our politicians and councils absolutely no backing or even interested. There are a few reasons for that which I won’t go into here but needlessly to say money has a great part to do with it. Both in costs and backhanders to said politicians and councillors!! There is no interest from those who make the decisions to (NI)

Something is currently being done with the tunnel. it's open on the miltown side, which goes for about 730 meters in before being blocked off by dirt. I saw tyre tracks in the tunnel, so I'm thinking they are emptying it out.There were a few proposed plans by the council a couple of years ago for reopening the tunnel so I guess that's what's happening

I live on the valley road to across from the railway bridge. The park area you are talking about is the old line filled up. There was never anything other than railway line there.

This line need reopened but a link to enniskillen via clones also needs to be opened for this line to reached its full capacity along with re inducing freight traffic to the whole nir network
