    When I was there, I was told there was a shop in Tralee. Unfortunately, we had already been through there before I found out.

    Most Euro trains remind me of city buses or trucks. They just never captured my eye as much as North American Rail. Are the trains in Ireland primarliy passenger service or do they haul freight too?

    I found a photo of what looks to be a brake van so they must have had freight cars at one time.

    Glad you found trains in Ireland, you got me worried. Thought it was best to blame it on the guiness! Their trains are more European looking and here is their website:
