    Has anyone ever looked in at the old train station in Mountmellick at night. It still has that signal arm with a green and red light on it. Sometimes the red light does be lit up, even though its about 40 or 50 years since the station was last used. It's still hardly connected to the system is it?

    Must be the reflection of other lamps, unless someone has yoked up a bulb for the craic. Where in Mountmellick is this? I would take a spin up there for a look.

    Its definitley not a reflection, only some times it comes on, coud be once in a month. Its on the Birr road out of Mountmellick on the lefthand side.
