Details
The Museum is located adjacent to Hells Kitchen Bar in Castlerea County Roscommon, Ireland. The Museum boasts the Largest Private Collection of Rail Memorabilia in Ireland.
The pride of this collection is an A55 Diesel Locomotive fully and lovingly restored.
Also on display are bells, lamps, shunting poles, signal equipment, staffs, station boards, etc. We also have a T.V monitor for viewing archival material. The whole project cost £150,000 and we are very grateful for the grant aid of £35,000 which we received from the Roscommon Enterprise Board.
Its more than just a Bar…
A corset and a pair of long johns are draped over the fireplace. Willy Murray's pan is nailed to the nearby wall. A motorised bicycle hangs above it. The pub is filled with all types of memorabilia, you quickly realise that Hells kitchen in Castlerea is no ordinary pub. There is so much to see here that you may forget to drink your pint!
The bar allows you in comfort to emmerse yourself into a haven of memorabilia whilst enjoying a creamy pint of Guinness or whatever takes your fancy. You can join in on the local debate on the weather or remain content to try and view everything the bar has to offer eitherway a warm friendly welcome is assured and we look forward to seeing you here soon.
