Product details

Product Description
Book Description
The County Donegal Railway was the largest narrow gauge system, not only in Ireland but in the whole British Isles. The line’s attractive livery of geranium red and cream made its trains very photogenic, especially in colour, and it has always been a very popular line with enthusiasts. By 1950, the County Donegal Railway had become the first railway in the British Isles to run its entire passenger timetable by diesel traction.

Robert Robotham’s book draws on the work of such well-known photographers as E S Russell, JG Dewing, John Langford and James Tawse, as well as the extensive ColourRail archive, to produce a stunning full colour album that captures the atmosphere of ‘The Wee Donegal’.
