After dozens of visits to Ireland over a span of 26 years, I finally witnessed former Great Northern Railway 4-4-0 number 131 under steam on 24 March 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This also was a reunion with many of my old friends at the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland (RPSI), Irish Rail and Irish Railway Record Society. And, it was Kris’s first trip behind steam in Ireland!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many memorable photos were exposed that day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made these images at Dublin’s Connolly Station using my Nikon Z7-II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
