The 'Wee Donegal' Revisited: More views of the County Donegal Railways in colour

Category: Transport

When The Last Years of the Wee Donegal was published in 1998 it proved to be the most popular Colourpoint transport title ever. Major factors in that were the popularity of the line itself and the fact that it was the first all colour book on an Irish narrow gauge company.

Now, with the cooperation of ColourRail, another 155 colour pictures have been made available for a second album, including some rare views from the early 1950s. This book follows a more thematic approach, focusing on principal stations and on locomotives, railcars and carriages. The book will include official scale drawings of selected items of rolling stock.
