In April/May 2023 my wife and I stayed in Co. Donegal for a couple of weeks, planning to walk as much as possible of the L&LSR as far as Letterkenny. The linked article covers the first length of the line heading East from Burtonport http://rogerfarnworth.com/2023/04/28/th ... ay-part-1/ |

In April/May 2024 we spent time in Co. Donegal again. Our intention was to walk as much as possible of the Londonderry & Lough Swilly trackbed as we could between Letterkenny and Derry and the branch to Cardonagh. We were frustrated by contacting COVID at the very beginning of our holiday and recovery was slow! Walking any distance at all was impossible for both of us. I was, however, able to start work on the first of these articles about these lines. This is the first article: ... http://rogerfarnworth.com/2024/05/16/th ... ry-part-1/ |

The L&LSR once again - a perspective from the 19th century! - The Railway Magazine, November 1899. http://rogerfarnworth.com/2024/09/1...h ... mber-1899/ The November 1899 edition of The Railway Magazine carried a short article about the L&LSR which was not heavy on technical detail. It mostly reads as though it were a holiday brochure rather than an article in a railway journal. None-the-less, the article is still of interest, particularly for the fact that it was written during the period when the L&LSR was expanding. |
