Irish Railways - 4 DVD Box Set

A fascinating insight
into railways in Ireland
with this four DVD box
set. Irish Railways -
Miscellany: This new and
revised edition of the
pioneering volume in our
Irish Railways series
provides a splendid
introduction to some of
the delights which could
be seen on both Ireland's
5ft 3in standard gauge
tracks and the country's
famed narrow gauge lines,
from the 1950s through
to the 1970s. The
Swansong of Steam In
Ulster: By early 1960s
steam traction had
virtually disappeared
from the railways of the
Irish Republic; however
it still flourished on
the lines of the Ulster
Transport Authority in
Northern Ireland where
the years up to 1964 can
rightly be described as
providing the Swansong of
Steam in Ireland. The
Irish Narrow Gauge
1939-1959: The greatest
concentration of narrow
gauge railways in the
British Isles was to be
found in Ireland, where,
between the 1870s and
1920, over 530 miles of
3ft gauge track were
constructed. In this,
the first DVD devoted
entirely to these
fascinating lines, we
present colour films made
between 1939 and 1959
which featured five 3ft
gauge systems in
different parts of the
country. Twilight of
Steam in Ulster: Twilight
of Steam in Ulster
features a further
selection of the films
made by John Laird, who
set out in the early and
mid-1960s to record as
much as he could of the
remaining steam workings
on Ireland's 5ft 3in
standard gauge railways.
This programme looks at
some of the workings
frequently entrusted to
steam and some of the
lines where steam was
still very active.
