West Clare Railway.

Watch the West Clare Railway engine No 5 Slieve Callan being driven through Kilrush (Frances Street) on its arrival back in Kilrush for the first time since it was withdrawn from service in October 1959. The engine has just recently undergone a complete refurbishment in England and is now, as far as I am aware the only working narrow gauge steam driven engine in the world with a 0-6-2T wheel configuration. Built in 1892, it will now be in active use on the restored line at Moyasta Junction, 3 miles from Kilrush.
