This final shot of former Great Northern Railway of Ireland (#GNRi) 4-4-0 #steam #train No. 171 Slieve Gullion working “The Midlander” along the #RoyalCanal in #Leixlip for the #RPSI took AGES to edit — loved the composition, but the light was TERRIBLE. Eventually got to this #BlackAndWhite version.

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.

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.

Winter gold! This lone Pot Marigold was brightening up the #RoyalCanal towpath at the 13th lock just opposite Intel in #Leixlip.

I chose to this sharp turn in the railway line and #RoyalCanal at #Leixlip Louisa Bridge station because it’s only usable when the weather is overcast or you’ll have the sun against you, and the forecast was overcast. When #RPSI #steamLoco No.171 arrived, so did the sun, so I chose a silhouette!

Having run around its train in Maynooth, former #GNRi 4-4-0 steam loco No. 171 Slieve Gullion steams around the sharp bend in the line and the #RoyalCanal at Intel in #Leixlip as it pulls an #RPSI Santa Special back to Dublin.

It turns out just one of the twelve 2025 #RPSI Santa Specials would be blessed with some winter sun, but former #GNRi 4-4-0 #steamLoco No. 171 Slieve Gullion sure looked great rounding the corner at Intel in #Leixlip yesterday morning!

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

Our last Repair Café of 2025 at Leixlip Library was a busy one.
Across the morning, we logged 39 items: lamps, tape players, baby monitor, paper shredder, outdoor socket, clothes, shoes, backpacks, Christmas decorations, an air fryer and even a bear with an electronic problem.
Big thanks as well to Leixlip Library and the Kildare County Council Climate Action Office for backing the event.

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.

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

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!
