Ex-Great Northern Railway (Ireland) 4.4.0 No. 171 "Slieve Gullion" at Bellarena station during the "Colmcille" enthusiast railtour from Belfast (York Road) to Londonderry/Derry (Waterside). The station building and its modern extension can be seen to the right together with the remains of an automatic token exchanger of a type installed by the LMS(NCC) in the 1930s, but out of use by the late 1960s. Bellarena closed in 1976, with the loop lifted, but the station reopened to passengers in 1982.
