NEWRY REPORTER 1948

Trip to Newry Reporter Office today with my daughter proved very fruitful .

With the help of my daughter Moya and the librarian we were able to locate by microfiche the article entitled 'The Last Run of the Bessbrook Tram' published on 15th January 1948.

Written in an editorial called 'The Rambler' it followed the track of the last tram and conversations with the last passengers.  A very emotional and though provoking piece , a true piece of history!!

Very enjoyable visit, even my 15 year old daughter enjoyed!
