Drimoleague had role in West Cork railway

The map which illustrates the article (County, Feb 28) on the West Cork Railway is marred by failing to indicate Drimoleague whose station had a pre-eminent position in that section of the railway.

Drimoleague was a major junction where the Cork line split, with trains going onward to either Bantry or Skibbereen.

Drimoleague itself possessed the largest signal cabin — with 31 levers — in the West Cork system. The largest capacity water tank in the West Cork system was also in Drimoleague.
