12 pole line trip

[NW Mailing List]

I did an article on the line in the mid 1990s for Model Railroading.  The article is on line at Trainlife.com however their files got corrupted and you may not be able to read it.

 Used to be an old station in Dunlow.  From Goggle, it looks like it might still be there. 

Watch out for cows in the tunnel, years ago they used to go in there in the summer to keep cool.  

There was an article in the Arrow many years ago on the same trip.
