The IRRS are CIE/Irish Rail's Official Undertakers?

The Irish Railway Record Society's traditional function is to perform the task of CIE's family undertakers on closed rail lines?

Their "Farewell Specials" represents their gleeful embalming of the corpse of closed rail lines thereby signing the official Death Certificate of these lines? They provide great personal comfort to CIE/IE managers by placing the tombstone on rail lines CIE/IE managers would rather forget and leave to rot rather than make function? And how the IRRS are only too glad (judging by the smiles in the past photographs) to give them this comfort.

The IRRS have delighted in performing this favour for CIE/Irish Rail for generations now and no doubt are looking forward to the propect of getting the fermaldahide out for the South Wexford line?

Yep. This one.

I am sick of childish puerile rail threads popping up on a regular basis of which this is a key example.

I am locking the thread.
