Preserved former GNR(I) 4.4.0 No. 171 "Slieve Gullion" crosses the River Bann outside Coleraine with the "Colmcille" rail-tour from Belfast to Londonderry. Typical for the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland of that era, the photographers are standing in a building site which later became a sewage works.
