Abandoned Station, Swinford, Co Mayo, Ireland.
Looking utterly forlorn in 1997, Swinford saw its last trains in the winter 1975, regular passengers services ending in 1963. Although the section remains closed, the rails have never been officially recovered and remain in sections, awaiting the many reopening proposals that have been delayed over the years.
Maybe it’s time to put our massive global digital tax windfall surplus back in neglected physical infrastructure that has always been so lacking, especially west of the Shannon.
