So do you go out in poor light to catch something unusual? That\u2019s your choice.<\/p>\n

Sometimes I hold off for fine weather or good light to make images. Other times I\u2019m faced with catching something in prevailing conditions. The railway doesn\u2019t run for sunshine.<\/p>\n

Once a week Irish schedules an extra IWT Liner (International Warehousing & Transport\u2014Dublin North Wall to Ballina, Co. Mayo). In recent months, this has operated with the elusive container pocket wagons (CPWs). But it doesn\u2019t necessarily run every week.<\/p>\n

I have plenty of photos from Islandbridge Junction, and no shortage of images depicting the IWT Liner, and while I\u2019ve photographed the CPWs over the years, last week I knew for certain (that\u2019s railway certain, which is at best uncertain) that the CPWs were on due to pass.<\/p>\n

So despite flat light, I made the effort.<\/p>\n
