    still being refined apparently but here's a sneak preview of the Society website.

    (there's a donation button if anyone wants to chip in a few quid to get things off the ground)

    I'll pass thanks - let the people of Tralee foot the bill this time.

    If that's the attitude towards it, then only the people of Tralee are entitled to use it.

    Frankly, if Ireland were just a little more like the USA at least in this respect (getting government out of railways for the most part), all 32 miles of the T&D would be in place and operational. The Durango & Silverton is a fragment of the former Denver & Rio Grande Western Railway's narrow-gauge network, but a 45-mile piece and surviving without government subvention. (Same track gauge as the T&D too, but featuring heavier 2-8-2 engines at about 132 tonnes.)
