Railway Preservation Society of Ireland - Dublin Operations The RPSI is a voluntary organisation running vintage steam and diesel trains from Dublin with carriages restored by its own volunteers. Interested?

Since 1988, our Dublin Area Operations Committee have overseen a regular program of long and short haul steam trips out of Dublin to various provincial locations. A dedicated team of volunteers are involved in a range of tasks from crewing our operations to behind the scenes maintenance and restoration at Inchicore and Mullingar. We're always on the lookout for more volunteers. We'd love to hear from you! Just drop us a message and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.

A little piece of Irish railway history.
No. 171 Slieve Gullion, built in 1913, captured crossing Drogheda’s iconic Boyne Viaduct during the Great Northern 150 celebrations.

I wanted this edit to really let the locomotive do the talking - over 100 years old, and still stealing the show. 🚂
