TRIP 554 | The Ireland Grand Finale | 22-27/07/19 |
Monday 22nd July DAY 1
Rosslare Harbour
Station (VIEW) :
22000 Unit ; 22045 formed of 22245, 22345, 22445
& 22545.
Private Site (VISIT) :
The party visited a
private railway, but at the request of the owner no details of what was seen
there and no photographs are to appear anywhere in print or online. So this will
be left unfilled.
The party wishes to express their thanks to the owner
for permitting them to visit his railway.
A note on the numbering of
Bord Na Mona wagons : Each individual system has its own numbering sequences
(Blackwater for example uses 1 to 600). However it is not known which sites come
under which system or what their sequences are. So therefore the numbers are
listed at the site they were seen. In some cases numbers are duplicated at one
site the reason for this is not known, and in some instances a wagon will
carry two numbers again the reason for this is not known.

As the party came into Dublin Connnolly Station, it split up
with people doing their own thing so for the sake of easiness, all sightings
of the afternoon in Dublin will be regarded as NSBA (even though two or three
people were together at various locations at the same time).
This is a
general list of all of the participants different observations and not listed
separately under each participant.
To avoid repetition of numbers every
effort has possible has been made to list duplicate sightings under one
location.

J&R Bradley, Newtownshandrum, Near Charleville :
The party were due to visit this location, but as a result of a
telephone call to the owner, whilst on their way there they were informed that
unfortunately his mother had been rushed into hospital (some distance away) and
he was there and there would be nobody available to show us around. So this
visit was therefore cancelled.
