DUBLIN & SOUTH EASTERN RAILWAY

In this gallery will be found the steam locomotives of the Dublin & South Eastern Railways and its antecedents. It started life as the Dublin & Wicklow Railway, absorbing the Dublin & Kingstown Railway in 1856. In 1860 it was renamed the Dublin, Waterford & Wexford Railway and in 1906 became the Dublin & South Eastern, ceasing to exist in 1925 when it became part of the Great Southern Railway.
