The Co. Donegal Railways again. ...

The Donegal Railway Heritage Centre.

This post follows on from earlier threads about the Railways of County Donegal and parallels the new thread about the Londonderry and Lough Swilly Railway Burtonport Extension.

The linked article hopefully gives a flavour of the Heritage Centre which is based in the old railway station in Donegal Town. It is worth a visit if you are in County Donegal. .....

The Donegal Railway Heritage Trail.

On 28th February 2022 the Donegal Railway Heritage Centre announced that, with funding provided through the “Creative Ireland” programme administered by Donegal County Council, they completed the production of a map of County Donegal showing some of the main Donegal railway heritage still to be seen across the County and into Northern Ireland.

Teelin Bay, Teelin Pier and Co. Donegal Railways

What happened to the proposed extension to the Killybegs branch of the Co. Donegal Railways to Teelin Pier?

The short answer is that it did not really get beyond the imaginations of a few folk in the Glean Cholm Cille (Glencolumbkille) and Carrick area of Co. Donegal.

The linked post is a 'flight of fancy'. ....
