Platform scene at Cobh terminus in May 2008, showing the same view as Bill Roberton's photograph 20 years earlier see image 20120. The railings have replaced the brick wall so the area feels more light and open. Unfortunately no trains were running on this occasion as drivers were on strike. 'Irish Railways Then and Now' shows the station was double this size, with another platform on the seaward (left) side and two loop lines running between.
