    How long does it take to climb Errigal? Is it as tough/tougher to climb as Croagh Patrick?

    Too easy I guess for folks who know their county!! :D
    It's pretty damn nice up there. Local folks really don't appreciate it I think....well the younger ones definitely don't.

    Think next year I'll join the college hill walking club get to see more of the county!

    Ive been going there since I was young, that bay was originally known as Skate Bay and that is the ruins of McSwine's castle... theres a blow hole on the SW side of Horn Head known as McSwine's gun; makes a loud bang when the waves crash through... theres also a Megalithic site well worth a visit there

    wheres this?

    Is that the Blaney Bridge?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,103 ✭✭✭North_West_Art


    Durnish has it... Lough Finn it is, coming from the Glenties side. The telegraph poles in the foreground follow the railway line.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 692 ✭✭✭Durnish


    ha, knew it was not Teelin as there is no coast road in pic.
    Will have to find a very tricky one, hmmmm.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 692 ✭✭✭Durnish


    Ok, talking of railways, try this, it's not really hard, if you know the answer.

    I can only see the shot of the train Durnish, are there 2 other images?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 586 ✭✭✭Deer Hunter DL


    St Peters Lough, Mountcharles?

    good guess but not right i see st peters is well froze too

    not Trusk Lough either

    its not far from donegal town


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 692 ✭✭✭Durnish


    nope, not Finntown.
    It's one the narrow gauge diesel rail cars from the County Donegal Railway Committee, now in the Folk and Transport museum, Cultra, NI. Great exhibition. When youse are all up north, buying Sainsbury food and drink and Ikea fold ups at Holywood Exchange, youse should drop into the Transport Museum just one slip road further on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 692 ✭✭✭Durnish


    North West Art, yeah, a few more images from Cultra.
    I vaguely remember railcars, coaches and rail stock, at Ballybofey, lying derelict, from when my Da used to go salmon fishing on the Finn, must have been at Reelan or Cloghan.
    Here's one that had several lives, all in Donegal, as you can see by its name.
