Covering the 1960s to date, this is a portrait of the Limerick to Sligo line which will revive memories of this unique railway. A century after the GSWR took over, the Western Rail Corridor is a display of its own history. At the south end, a busy passenger service, in the middle, renewal work is under way, and at the northern end all is quiet.
