Description

The Guinness brewery in Dublin expanded rapidly in the 1870s as the world couldn’t get enough of its black gold. horses and carts hauled hops, malt and casks around the site until 1873 when construction of a narrow gauge railway (tramway) began. This delightful little factory system operated for 100 years, ceasing work in 1975. Hugh Oram’s little book is full of photos of (mainly) the railway and the workings of the brewery. As well as the internal tramway, there was abroad gauge link to Kingsbridge Station which closed in 1965 which is featured.
