M/S of a strange looking train moving towards the camera.  Engine driver climbs down and goes to the front of the engine.  He pushes on the track to turn the engine around to face the opposite direction.  L/S of the train approaching.  As it nears the camera it stops and passengers get out of tiny carriages. C/U of the front of the train. The train starts up and moves off.  Children wave from the carriages.  High angle shot of the train wobbling along.  Shot from the roof of the train showing the two drivers.  C/U of engine driver.  An unusual road bridge is lowered over the line.  A horse and cart travels across.      



Was an item in Pathe Pictorial issue number 701.



* This doesn't make much sense but that's what it says!



Not sure if Ballybunion is in Northern Ireland or Southern Ireland (Republic of Ireland, Eire, Irish Republic) - can't find it on the map.  Perhaps it is some kind of joke?
