The look at the history of the Castleisland to Gortatlea Railway (1875 – 1977) here grew from a request by Marie O'Sullivan, editor of the The Kerry Magazine, under the auspices of the Kerry Archaeological and Historical Society, to write an article on the subject for the 2021 edition.
It was a labour of love as I have very fond memories of the train coming in through the countryside down the fields from where we lived on the Tralee Road.
The Back the Tracks walkers are Jack O'Connor, Barrack Street and PJ Luddy, Tralee Road on an evening jaunt in July 1974. Then we have Sonny and Bernie Tangney in June 1983.
With Sheila Prendiville in her shop is Phil Daly from Currans in November 2002.
The man in the cattle lorry getting preferential treatment from Con Mahony at Camp crossing is the late Bill Keane.
We hope to add to the story of the little line as there is so much more to it. For now, take a trip Back the Tracks with us.....John Reidy
