Anybody remember the train at ranks flour mill in glasnevin dublin.had its own siding beside the canel,there was also two sunken river barges below the wall beside the mill there.last time I was there was way back mid 70s.I miss that part of auld dublin.
They cut out that section of Graham's family. It was his great-grandfather who worked on the GNRI. Unfortunately despite filming that section of the family it got dropped in the edit!! We only found out the day before that it wasn't going to air. However I do have the rushes from them on DVD and the production company is hopeful that it might appear as a DVD extra. They're beautiful shots and it would be a shame for no-one to see them.
Nice video, pity NIR wouldnt run more goods trains!

Only the road bridge and the base of the water tower. Even the platforms have been filled in.
