  • I've got a few questions.

    1. where does the line that branchs off to left at the start go to? Loop line Platform? I thought there was only 1 line out there

    2. After the train crosses the Quoile is that the original line bed to Belfast running parallel with the current line to the left? It looks like a lane way now but I can't help noticing it continues North into the distance as the line sweeps right to Inch abbey.

  • Yes. remember the original railway was built direct to Downpatrick. The subsequent extension by-passed Downpatrick hence the need for the Loop platform which also was served by trains out to Ardglass. Thus a triangle of lines.

    Yes
