  1. An #IrishRail Commuter train accelerating away from #Leixlip Confey station along the banks of the #RoyalCanal on a beautiful summer afternoon.

  2. A glimpse of a green #IrishRail Commuter train between all the greenery lining the #RoyalCanal as it passes the cutting between Carton House in #Maynooth, and the 13th lock in #Leixlip.

  3. Old meets new — I got lucky, and managed to snap a meeting of former Great Northern Railway of Ireland (GNRi) 4-4-0 #steam loco No. 171 Slieve Gullion meeting an #IrishRail Commuter train at Matt Goff Bridge along the #RoyalCanal in #Leixlip. The loco was pulling an # RPSI (Railway Preservation Society of Ireland) “Midlander” special #train towards Maynooth.

  4. An #IrishRail Commuter train climbing the bank up to Blakestown level crossing and the #RoyalCanal 13th lock near #Leixlip on a blustery May afternoon.

  5. Since it’s Saint Patrick's Day 🍀 🇮🇪: going through pictures taken in #Ireland in August 2024, travelling from #Dublin to #Belfast with the #IrishRail #Translink #Enterprise #InterCity. It’s a push-pull train. There’s an IÉ Class 201 diesel, and … (🥁) it’s got a bar-buffet style #DiningCar (sort of).

  6. A dull morning along the undeveloped stretch of the #RoyalCanal at Confey in #Leixlip as an #IrishRail Commuter service approaches the first of the two Leixlip stations en route to Maynooth.

  7. Yesterday morning was blustery but beautiful, and the commuters slowing down for #Leixlip Louisa Bridge stations could enjoy lovely views of the #RoyalCanal as they made their way towards Dublin. #IrishRail #train

  8. An #IrishRail Commuter service passing the supposedly haunted 13th lock on the #RoyalCanal having just climbed the bank at Collinstown. This lock and level crossing are on a tiny back road directly opposite the big Intel plant in #Leixlip.

  9. An #IrishRail Commuter service approaching #Leixlip along the banks of a mirror-smooth #RoyalCanal with some dramatic early autumn clouds above.

  10. One last railway photo from my lovely walk along the re-developed #RoyalCanal towpath around #Leixlip last weekend — an #IrishRail Commuter #trian rounding the corner at the bottom of the bank between Blakestown crossing and the new motorway link bridge at Intel Ireland. #BlackAndWhite

  11. An #IrishRail Intercity #train entering the tight turn on the approach to #Leixlip Louisa Bridge station as the railway and canal turn 90° to enter the Ryewater viaduct directly after the station. The newly redeveloped towpath is unusually free of joggers, dog walkers, and cyclists here!

  12. An #IrishRail InterCity #train accelerating onto the Ryewatwr Viaduct in #Leixlip having rounded the tight turn on the approach. #BlackAndWhite

  13. An #IrishRail InterCity rounds the tight bend on the approach to the Ryewater Viaduct in #Leixlip.

  14. An #IrishRail Commuter service rounding the tight corner on the approach to #Leixlip Louisa Bridge station. This is a particularly pretty section of the #RoyalCanal because it seems to attract more wild flowers than the average stretch does.

  15. An #IrishRail Commuter #train races towards Maynooth along the #RoyalCanal having climbed the bank up to Blakestown level crossing and the 13th lock at the entrance to the Intel Ireland plant in #Leixlip. The recently redeveloped towpath was heaven for a summer walk 🙂

  16. @marcusphelan Welcome to planet #SpeakerPhone where convos via such technology (including one overheard with curiously intimate exposé of a company's financial-pickle, naming names etc., that would have had a journalist purring with delight) has been a thing on #LUAS, #BusEireann, #IRISHRAIL and most public spaces since the year #dot (aka before #Covid) 😂 😂 Get in line for the train carriages where lads pull out 1980s boom box for a bit of trance...😂 😂
