As a child I used to catch the train from Gt Victoria Street to Newry in the 50's to stay with my grandparents. Yet I never realised it went on to Carlingford. Thanks for posting this - fascinating.
This is great to see. I've been looking to see footage like this for a long time. I have vague memories of playing on the old sleepers that still remained around Edward street station in the early eighties. I'm now a bus driver based in Edward street bus station.
I used to stay with an aunt in Bridge St on school holls in early 50s. Oh what memories! Australia.
