Water tank at Dromod shed on the Cavan & Leitrim Railway. Although the line closed in 1959, this end has seen a revival by preservationists and the tank is now back in use for watering their steam locomotive.

Spotted in the yard at the Cavan and Leitrim Railway in Dromod. Great Northern Railway No.389 was designed and built by the Great Northern Railway in the railway works at Dundalk in 1951. 96 of these buses were built, of which 55 passed to CIE in January 1959. This one remained in service until 1964 when it was converted to a special ambulance to carry stretcher cases to the shrine at Knock. This work continued until 1975 when the Gardner ambulances were replaced by 2 converted 'E' class Leyland Leopard buses. It was subsequently restored and repainted in GNR colours. The chassis is GNR Gardner 4/51/389 and powered by a Gardner 5LW. 33 seat body built in GNR workshops on steel frames supplied by Park Royal.
