Earlier this month we traveled by train from Killarney to Mallow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I’ve made many rail journeys through Mallow over the years, more often than not this was just a place to change trains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This trip we traveled specifically to Mallow. Kris wanted to visit Crystal Earth in the village, where she bought some decorative stones. We also enjoyed lunch and a coffee and caught up with friends at Irish Rail who gave us a driving tour of the town and of the railway station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An unseasonable snowfall in the Dublin area had resulted in delays to InterCity trains to Cork and Kerry. As as result there was a parade of trains in the evening. While we waited for our return to Killarney to depart, I made a variety of photos of the passing trains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
