Born again


Walk towards the light...taking the 9.35 train on Saturday from Ceannt Station, Galway.


Iarnrod Eireann (Irish Rail) are proposing a 750 million retail redevelopment and rejuvenation of Ceannt Station just behind Eyre Square. Hmmm... should be interesting since there isn't a single car parking space in the place at the moment. Apparently, they are looking for architects to design a 'world class' development - I seem to remember the very same phrase used about the Eyre Square redevelopment (RIP). Actually, the new developers have moved into the Square to finish it off - it'll all be over by Christmas...

As the gate is open I guess you weren't exactly queueing for the train! I remember when they first proposed that nearly 5 years ago. There were talks of M&S being an anchor retailer and a leisure centre etc. I like the desaturation you've done on this John. Hopefully you weren't on the way to work when you took it!
