On the DART from Pearse, we passed a steam locomotive pulling a train for a Christmas special.
I read recently of the state of Irish railways in the last days of steam - even Lansdowne Road station was down to two two trains stopping there each day. Places that are busy now, like Sydney Parade, were closed completely in 1960.
Nostalgia is a great thing - as long as it remains in the past.
