Down memory line

the Sligo Leitrim & Northern Counties Railway

Edición de la obra Down memory line

In this fascinating account of the last years of the Sligo, Leitrim and Northern Counties Railway, Michael Hamilton creates vivid pictures of: -family life in a level crossing gatehouse -the work of a boy porter in Dromahaire -the duties of a guard on the trains travelling between Sligo and Enniskillen. He recalls the great characters of the line including: Tommy McTiernan, Boss Brannigan and Owen Rooney and his descriptions of the passengers - the smugglers, the Scottigh visitors, the honeymooners - are always direct and frequently humorous.
