    Dromod is my family home land, my father Jack Shanley and his brothers worked at Dromod station during WW2, their job was transfering coal from the narrow gauge railway to mainline gauge. Now 70 years old, I just remember the narrow gauge rolling stock parked up at Dromod. I do realise that in the past 60 years, the rail road is mostly built over, so consequently, there is a very limited line for the heritage railway to run on. Sadly some of the very valuable steam locomotives have ended up in the USA and elsewhere. Not wishing to be too critically. How about a big clean up and get the scrap boy's in to clear out what is not related to the narrow gauge railway and bus travel. Dromod is forever in my heart. The Shanley's who worked at Dromod station were Jack Shanley (my father) and his brother Michael Frank, who was a signal man on the main line. Jack ended up in Mullingar as a signal man.

      it is people like you who take the time to tell their story that makes railways such an interesting hobby. indeed, it would be lovely to devote the Cavan and Leitrim to its original rolling stock and rebuild the line. indeed, Dromod is a beautiful town today. I can only imagine what it would have been like during WW2 trying to keep Ireland running on arigna coal. thanks very much for taking the time to share your story.
