052 at Manulla Junction
On St Patrick's Day 1979 (or it may be 1980 - hopefully the next volume of Jim Edgar's photo memoirs will clarify as he was standing beside me), four of us (Norman Wallace, Jim Edgar, Bill Watson and the "horse thief") set off in my then reasonably new Ford Fiesta 1.1S for a little drive. We ended-up in Dooagh on Achill (as Norman said, he must be the only person ever to have gone from Doagh to Dooagh and back in the one day) - and not many photographs were taken.
After many hours driving, Jim charged into a pub in Dooagh and asked "Have you any food?". "Ah, no!". Norman bursts in and asked "Have you any burgers?". "Ah, yes". So we all had two burgers each - made two at a time in an early microwave.
And then we came home.
The only reasonable railway shot (there is also a going away view) is of 052 passing Manulla Junction on what is presumed to be a Ballina - Claremorris service.
