Branch Sales Officer and Fixture Secretary Nigel Wassell relaunches our Swansea programme with a series of images capturing the variety of narrow gauge in Ireland.
Outside the Foyle Valley Railway Museum, Londonderry The locomotive in the image is a 3ft narrow gauge locomotive built for the County Donegal Joint Railways Committee (CDJRC) in 1907 by Nasmith and Wilson, originally numbered No. 16 and named “Donegal”. She was superheated in 1926 and then renamed and renumbered as No. 4 “Meenglas” in 1937. The locomotive was withdrawn from service on the 31-12-1959, when the CDJRC ceased to exist as a railway company.
