The workshops of the Foxdale & St. Marks Railway are very much "Off Limits" to any budding photographers and enthusiasts, to my knowledge only two official pictures have ever been seen of the inside of the Loco works, so you will have to excuse the lack of photographic evidence to support this message thus far.
Around 10:30 this morning (Saturday 26th Dec) a large load covered by a tarpaulin was delivered to the workshop site, the load was transferred by crane on to the three foot, and pushed into the sheds by one half of the Ex County Donegal railcars, driven by the Locomotive Superintendant himself, K.C. Quayle. Also reported to have been in attendance were F&S.t M PW chargehand Finlo Qualtrough, General manager Arthur Looney, several Board members, and a gathering of Irish gentlemen.
The small crowd stayed inside the sheds for around about two hours, and emerged with broad smiles on their faces. They all then made their way to the "Baltic Inn", where they stayed until tea time, the Irish contingent were then transported to the Airport to catch a flight back to Dublin.
