Connemara's Lost Railway - An Aeriel View of what remains of the Galway - Clifden Railway in 4K
The Galway - Clifden Railway had a relatively short 40-year life and I will be covering the story of it's relatively short life and demise in a future video. For now I want to share some aeriel views of the line as it is today and the magnificent terrain it passes through. From seeing this footage you can hopefully get to appreciate the terrible loss of not having this railway line today on multiple fronts. A project to revive Maam Cross Station and the adjacent segment of the old line is underway by a team of hard working volunteers. Full details of their work and progress is captured in the links below as well as a GoFundMe link where any contributions would be most welcome to help the team progress the project. I hope to do a video on the fantastic work the Maam Cross team are doing in the next couple of months and track their progress going forward. I'm really looking forward to travelling the line (at least some small part of it) in the near future. Link to latest update video: • Connemara Railway Update for September 202...
