  Cavan & Leitrim Railway:
The Cavan and Leitrim railway was one of the most memorable systems in Ireland. It ran on a narrow gauge line and linked the Leitrim towns of Drumshanbo, Mohill and Ballinamore. For most of the journey between Drumshanbo and Ballinamore it ran alongside the public road and crossed at a number of bends. Despite many protests the railway closed in 1959. The centre has a re-creation of a ticket and waiting room as well as many fine pictures of the railway.
