Summary edit
| Description |
English: Downpatrick Railway Museum. The Downpatrick & County Down Railway is Northern Ireland's only heritage steam railway. The original station in Market Street was demolished in 1972 to make way for a supermarket. It had served as a bus station from the railway's closure in 1950 until 1972. Downpatrick gasworks was located just across the street from the railway station. When it was closed and demolished to make way for a new college, the manager's house, a listed 19th century building, had to be retained. The Railway came to an arrangement whereby the building was dismantled, moved across the road to the railway site and a grant obtained for its reconstruction as the station building. Unfortunately the railway wasn't open on the day of my visit and I was only able to take this rather poor shot through some stout steel gates. |
