West Clare Railway - on TV

Post by Lucille » Sun Feb 06, 2011 7:09 pm

TG4 the (partly) Irish language state TV station is currently showing a series on old railways, (Boithre Iarainn) one of which is the West Clare Railway. Each programme is a mixture of old black and white footage, some re-enactments, and interviews. Some of these are in the Irish language with English sub-titles and some are completely in English (some of these could also do with sub-titles!). The programme is in two parts, less than 30 minutes in total. Below are the relevant urls
