The Burtonport Extension of the Londonderry and Lough Swilly Railway
In April 2023 we stayed close to Burtonport, adjacent to Loch Meela, in Co. Donegal. On the first full day of our stay, we walked the Burtonport Old Railway Walk. A 6km length of the Burtonport extension of the Londonderry & Lough Swilly Railway has been made into an accessible path. The weather was great and the walk very enjoyable. We were impressed by the investment in the walk made by the local community and Donegal County Council.
The original line ran from Derry to Letterkenny and was later extended to Burtonport. ... http://rogerfarnworth.com/2023/04/28...ailway-part-1/ |
