The first train, between Amiens Street and Drogheda ran on the 18th March 1844. Anybody interested in trains will find this paper very interesting. The G.N.R. ran from 1876 – 1958 – 82 years, and gave good service throughout the years. The author has given us a comprehensive and interesting paper. (24 pages)
