Would that have anything to do with the fact that both the RoI and the UK aren't in the Schengen area?Originally posted by The_Equalizer View PostYou'll have far great checks getting on the Eurostar than you ever will to RoI via land or sea.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

Yup, for UK being out of Schengen zone is a massive loss from Chinese tourists, greedy Govt wants visa revenues to themselves and in the end it costs whole country dearly.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostWould that have anything to do with the fact that both the RoI and the UK aren't in the Schengen area?Comment

There was Fahan, Fahan Jnct and Fahan Pier stations on the L&LSR, on the line to Carndonagh, my main interest was the L&BER, Letterkenny and Burtonport Extension Railway, cracking 4-8-4T's and and 4-8-0 Tender engines, huge for narrow gauge...Originally posted by meridian View PostThe bank where the railway line used to be now forms the stop bank at the bottom of my brother-in-law's place just down from the Railway Tavern in Fahan.
