Continuing the series, Stephen Johnson has produced a book looking at the railways of the West and North West of Ireland. The quality of the photographs in this
book are very good - both technically and artistically. In addition, there is a very healthy representation of built heritage therein. Each of the lines featured has a brief
history of the line included and any location for which a photograph is published also gets a brief history.
One thing that surprised me was the question mark over the length of the line to Ballaghadereen. The author, many years ago, produced the excellent publication
"Johnson's Atlas & Gazeteer of the Railways of Ireland" which includes the line to Ballaghaderreen and its length.
