163 Athenry
This seems to have been a very strange trip with limited photographic opportunities. CIÉ was about to withdraw the one daily each-way passenger service between Ballina and Limerick - a service so badly timed nobody used it. We took a couple of days before a planned IRRS visit to get what we could, and because of the IRRS visit the dates are known with certainty. So, after an early start from Belfast, we arrived in Athenry to find 163 and a nicely smoking heating van, in the station with the 13.55 Ballina - Limerick.
